(NSV) My Pants Fell Off at Work
Today I was carrying office supplies to the other side of the building (I am a secretary) and my pants fell to the ground. I was alone so no one saw, in case anyone was wondering. I had left these pants at my sister's house before I started trying to eat better and now they don't fit at all. I don't have anyone in my life I can share this with because it hurts their feelings that I have stuck to eating well this long and my victories make them realize their failures. I am just really excited! My clothes don't fit! And this just proves what I am doing is working. I hadn't even realized I was doing this well.
My journey so far: Back in August I went to the doctor and learned that I weighed 320 pounds. I decided that I would not gain 1 more pound and started looking into diets. I have done many and crashed and failed. So instead I thought I would "ease" into a healthier lifestyle instead of doing yet another diet. I started cooking my own food and stopped eating fast food and so many ready made and microwavable meals. (My lunch is still a microwavable chicken stir fry.) I also cut out beef, pork and cheese and milk. (It was recommended by my doctor because of a disorder I have.) If I eat anything I have to eat a fruit or vegetable first. Like today, I wanted to treat myself for doing so good on eating better that I was going to reward myself with Reese's cups from the break room. But first I had to eat an apple that was in there. I have no idea what I weigh now because it hurts my feelings to weigh myself. I only know my weight when I go to the doctor. When I went last month, I weighed 299. (My first goal was to get under 300.) And this is what I tell people my current weight is if they ask me. I also do very little exercise because I am still focusing on learning to eat better. (My lunch is bad for me but it is easy and yummy.) Relearning exercise is next. I was a cheerleader and used to love Zumba. So I know this part will come much easier than learning to eat well because I have never watched what I eat. But I used to love being active so I am pretty confident that when I pluck up my courage, I'll love it again. If you made it this far thank you! I also read the guidelines and I think this is ok to post since I've said how I have done it.
