Connie is a young mom, whose weight has definitely impacted her life. She is ready to be healthy and energetic! Her story: “I have trouble doing activities with my two children. My 8 year old is a special needs child and I get very tired trying to keep up with her. My 10 year old is very aware of my size and is cautious about her weight. I do not look forward to weekends because my family wants to do something fun, and I find myself sitting out or not going.
I need to get healthy for my kids and for me. I want to be around to see them grow. Right now, I feel like I am on the outside of the world looking in.
328 lbs

sorry I missed a post, summer, it’s been crazy. I picked up 3# and last week i lost them again. I am excited to weigh in this week. I’ve been running 3days a week 2 miles and boot camp 3 days also. Also paying close….close attention to my food.
There is a test Dr.L wants me to do. about testing my cortizone lvl. If it’s out of whack, that may explain up and down. If I produce to much, it would influence my weight. I’ll keep you informed.
well this week down 6lbs. 328 to 246, finally out of the 50’s, yeaaa.
Great news!! Congrats!!
Hey Connie: What is that recipe you said for the scalloped potatoes, like the amounts and stuff… That sounds really good……
Great job on the 4 lbs, way to come back with at good loss!!!

I am sorry I haven’t checked in in a couple of weeks. Last week I was down 4# yea, but I was worried about Easter. Ham, salty and I retain water, and Candy, which I just like, and the tradition of resurrection rolls, great story and just plain yummy. So I did the ham, and scalloped potoatoes is a tradition that my family enjoys, but I cannot have. So as Dr.L says “what ever you do with a potato you can do with a turnup. So I did, sliced turnups thin used egg beaters, light cheese, skim milk, and konjak flour. I have to say that was better than the potato version and dare I say better than the ham.
So I weighed in this week, down another 4#. wow, I was happy. So I am at 251, only 50# away from my husband,lol.
Hope to see you at the Apple and Cheese. It is at the Dunedin Center at 6 PM on Wed. night, I think. I will double check on that though.
wheeeww…I just got in from boot camp. oh the pain, but in a good way. There will come a time when you need to intensify your work out once or twice a week, Boot camp is a great way to do that. It may feel hard core at first but you get a little bit used to it.
So…updates:
The Vital Triple Mag: is great. totaly works (sorry for talkin about the B.M. but it’s important, for me anyway) I took 3 the first night and will take 1 every evening after that. Now, I may miss a day and thats o.k, I make sure I take it a few times a week. LLOOOVVEE IITT. You feel so tired and booged down if you havent done #2 in a couple of days. Not to mention how much weight that adds.
oh and Dr.L’s stuffed cabbage rolls….yuuummmyyyyy . she has some great recipies.
shed 2.4 pounds this week.
Apple and cheese chat this tuesday(i think) double check. she is awesome to listen to. I have some things to ask her to explain about the body.
so thats it for now….work out this week- move the body, read a little -move the mind and help someone -move the heart…..
TTFN
GREAT JOB on the 2.4!!!!! what is the Vital Triple Mag? Is it JUST for BM’s, have you seen a difference in your weight loss with it??????
I KNOW… about the stuffed cabbage, have made it SEVERAL TIMES!!! LOVE IT!!!!
heeeeyyyyy, thought I would add a little note, even with my gain {rolling eyes} i have put on a pair of 18 shorts….(aaaaaaa……..angels singing in background) the last time i fit into size 18..i was…18…hahaha….really i was….
so when I started i was oozzing out of a size 28, now I’m in 20(comfortably) and getting into 18…woot..woot.
wow, I’m up 4 huge pounds……..dont know what to say about that. no excuses….I’m on my way out to boot camp this morning. Get my butt back in gear. i dont want to obsess over this to much. I need to be o.k with the fluctuation my body may have, but I dont want to take it lightly. I didnt want to exercise to much last week and thats o.k. I did do alot of yard work, taking time off is o.k but i still need to be focused that exercise is a vital part of losing more weight.
Dr L is doing the next apple and cheese chat, I’m going. she’s going to talk about hormones and how it effects your weight. I love listening to her explain things and how she understands the human body.
