Inch by Inch

One more victory to report: I lost another inch in my waist! 

Look out world, here I come!

I have cut out most soda, started eating more veggies, kept track of the calories I have been consuming, taken thyroid medication everyday, and become more active. It has made a big difference! I am officially under 190!

Test Results

I went in for my physical last week. The results were somewhat shocking to me. I knew my thyroid was off. The shocking part was that the levels were so far off that they were off the charts. I was also told that my kidney functions were off, most likely because I am dehydrated. I asked about some symptoms I have been having for the past few months, and I was told that they are most likely part of my Hashimoto's disease. Some of the symptoms will get better as my thyroid levels level off with medication. We are not able to start working on the other symptoms until that is taken care of. I am hoping that as my thyroid level get leveled out with medication and I continue to work on finding better food choices and I exercise and drink water more, my weight will go down. I really want to be at a healthier weight!

Turning Point

A few months ago I realized I was the biggest I have ever been in my life. I didn't like it. I have started making small goals to make a change. I am keeping track of what I am eating and how it makes me feel. I have been increasing my step goals each time I reach it at least 3 times in a week. I am relearning how to be healthy.

Going Backwards

I am not losing weight. I am gaining. I can't seem to stick to anything lately. Hopefully, the warmer weather will help motivate me.

100 Day Challenge

I saw this video today of a lady who went to the gym for 100 days. I can't really pay the money to join a gym right now, but I do have some X-Box and Wii programs as well as a lot of videos I can do. I am going to try the 100 day challenge. I am going to work out for 100 days. It is a new year. I need a new start!
