2001 2002 |
January 2002 Five months out and now there are starting to be significant changes in my whole life -- not just my body. Every day I find it more and more amazing. My personality is becoming more positive and outgoing and in turn I've noticed people reacting more positively to me. I'm much more confident now and I no longer feel like I'm worth less than others or that I don't deserve happiness. I smile a lot, look people in the eye, and don't walk with my head down anymore. On the weight loss, I haven't been this weight since I was 18. If I lose the additional 30 pounds I hope to (my goal is 160) I will be at my lowest weight since 15 years old! I didn't lose many inches this month so I'll probably increase my weight training a little. On other matters, the constipation problem seems to have worked itself out. Apparently I had some nasty hemorrhoids that were causing part of the problem, and they probably came about because of the pushing I had done for weeks. They were taken care of and now I'm down to only one Senecot every other day to keep me regular. Do try to keep yourself regular from the start to avoid the experience I had. One other thing that is worth noting: I'm noticing that I am hungry quite a bit. It is interesting, because previously I ate so much and so constantly that I never felt hunger pangs. But now I do -- about every 2 hours or so. But just a little snack -- like a handful of soy nuts or 1/4 protein bar -- alleviates the hunger. Always before I ate just to eat and then felt guilty, but now I eat whenever my body tells me to and feel normal. How freeing! |
