I broke the 230's! Yay!
At this point, I have to say, I'm running out of steam on Full Fast. I told myself I'd stay on full fast for 12 weeks, but I'm not sure now. I think the last 2 weeks of loosing less than 3 lbs is really tough. The weather is finally warmer, and I think that has something to do with it, too. I'm not craving carbs, or ice cream, or anything like that - just chicken and other stuff on the grill.
But for now, I'm going to stay on Full Fast.
I'm 6 wks in, 6 more to go.
So, I think - "when was I last at this weight?"
I remember 244 - I was working as a CNM (Certified Nurse Midwife) - working about 85+ hrs a week, up at all hours of the night. That was about 7 years ago.
Last time I was 239, it was my first year back to RI from Atlanta, that summer. I remember renting a beach house and for 3 days straight, just laid on the couch. I didn't even have the energy to answer the phone. I was completely and utterly burnt out on life. Mom had finished her first bout of cancer (of course, we didn't know it was the 1st - we thought it was the only). in 8 months, I had gotten married, gotten a new job in my new career was a CNM, mom got diagnosed with cancer, I quit my new job as a CNM after 4 weeks, rented out our house in Ga, moved to RI, got a new job as a CNM, I was absolutely exhausted!
I remember when I finally got off the couch, I enjoyed riding bikes, grilling, swimming, and just loving summer.
I got back and weighed myself and I had gained 10 lbs.
10 lbs! Geez Louise!!
I feel like seeing my weight go down is like a time capsule.
I can do this!!
