Well, I don't know what happened last week...I forgot to come here and write a note! Perhaps because the news wasn't all that great....I'd lost 0.4 pounds.....cripes. Maybe this is the official dreaded "P" word.....alas......the dreaded plateau. To try to kick-start my metabolism, I have made it to the gym every day since last Friday.....The week before last, I'd exercised only 2 times.......so I hope and pray that the numbers change this time.......I'm sitting at about 33 pounds gone.....I wanted to be half-way long before now, dang it.....2 more pounds and I'll be at my half-way goal.
I've stuck to the diet, so I'm not sure what else to do. Debbie S said the fat's still coming off, even tho the weight column is moving s l o w l y downwards......did I say it's moving slowly? Am I getting impatient? Maybe....I don't want to let myself or my family or the FOY down.....I've got a lot at stake.......I wanted this so badly; to get this weight off once and for all. But, Friday is another weigh-in and good or bad, I'll let you know. Still have about 7 months to the program, and 37 pounds to go. I appreciate all the great support from my family, friends, and patients.....it's been inspiring.

I feel so blessed to have been one of the chosen to participate in this weight loss program sponsored by the Fountain of Youth in So. Ogden. Sending that entry form from the Sunday paper and the subsequent phone call from them is forever changing my life. I will be able to ride my bike more easily; maybe even keep up with my husband on his. More importantly, I will be able to keep up with the grandkids and not be the one left behind on the playground or on the hiking trail. With diabetes and high blood pressure rampant in my family, it is high time to do something about my weight and to be given this most wonderful gift is truely heaven sent. So, watch me lose this coming year, a total of 70 pounds and be the person I once was. For many of you, I've only looked like this....but not for long!
