So, things have gotten a bit better since I last posted. I did not walk away, in truth, I have too much going on in my life that is 100x’s more important then people bitching about stupid crap. Now back to my real life, where I pretty much happy. I say pretty much because we all have bad days… right?
Things are going well on my diet/lifestyle change. I think I am still loosing weight and I know I am shrinking. How, you ask? Well, my workout pants that I have been using were a XXL but the other day I went and picked up another pair. But, accidently I picked up an XL instead of an XXL, they fit really well. As well as my XXL did when I picked them up over a month ago. I am very happy with that. How can I not be? I went to the movies last night and noticed that my hips didn’t hit the sides of the seat. I realized they hadn’t in the past few weeks but I didn’t think about it then. Last night, having gotten up several times for the bathroom and snacks, before the movie started, I did. Even after I treated myself to a scoop of Double Fudge Chocolate Ice Cream, hey we have to treat ourselves from time to time. Right? Or we go crazy!!!
But, I have been thinking of my end goals, when I hit my final weight goal – which is 150lbs, if my body will do it. What will I give myself. Well, after thinking about it I think I will do what I have been wanting to do for the last 5 – 8 years but haven’t because of my weight. A beautiful tattoo on my right back shoulder. I have the design in mind but it will be a bit more original then walking into the store and saying – hey, I want that. And it is possible I will cover up a really bad tat I have on my inner hip. With what? I haven’t a clue. Maybe a spartan sheild from 300 since it has a special place in my heart for my weight loss.
My other goal – to make a costume I have been wanting to do for the past few years but there was no way in hell I would ever be able to pull it off unless I was in shape. More on that when it gets time to start on it.
Today has been a good day so far… about 3 hours left in work and then I can go home and workout then work on some projects I have been pushing off for the past few weeks while I go to the gym.

Excellent! Glad to hear you are sticking with it. I need to get back on the wagon with my eating again.
I think the tattoo is a great idea. We need to reward ourselves for our goals. I quit smoking 5 years ago and swore I was going to get my teeth whitened. Then I read that isn’t good for your teeth so I didn’t.
You’ve given me an idea to make a goal and reward myself with a tat once I’m done. I cannot put a weight on it since I don’t know if I’ll ever get to 150 lbs again in my lifetime but I’d like to be able to at least wear a size 16.
Good job on the lifestyle changes! At one point in my adult life I was a size 28 and weighed nearly 400 lbs (medications can suck ass.) So if you ever wanna chat about it let me know, it took years, and I never quite made it back to my ideal weight of 150, but I am still trying to make healthier lifestyle changes and maybe I will make it there. Maybe not. I would be happy at a size 10 if I can get back there.
The tattoo sounds lovely! I think that is a great reward for yourself=) As well as the costume!
It was great to see you at the MG BBQ!
Great job! Glad it’s going well for you! So what costume were you going to make?
Oh thats a secret 😀 I want to surprise people with it. 😀
