I see it has been almost 1 yr since I last posted here. So much has happened. I hardly know where to start.
When I last posted, my husband was in the hospital and going through tests to be put on the liver transplant list. At this point, I was 50 pounds lighter and still going pretty strong. He had his transplant on 2/25/11. It was such a scarey time and the kids were having a really hard time with him not being home. He remained in the hospital until 3/21/11.
After his transplant, my mind seemed to have snapped. I was so tired of keeping track of things and worrying constantly. I threw all caution into the wind and started eating things I liked. Of course it was sweets and those wonderful deadly carbs. I knew it was emotional eating because I just did not care anymore.
Now here I am finding myself up over 40 pounds feeling like crap and hoping to get off this emotional coaster.
Even though, my husband has issues with his kidneys from anti rejection drugs, I am feeling like I can once again take back the control.
I had much success with HCG, but I am not going to start back in on it for now. I am just not strong enough yet. I am going back to Atkins, then switch to low fats. My long time friend is going on the journey with me and we do good together. We are putting more into it this time and promised that we would push each other. We are both doing WII Fit and I am so excited about that. Of course, our big day is the 1st of January.
Today, I decided I need to be a bit more active. I got up early and scrubbed the floors with a rag mop instead of using my steam mop. Then I cleaned the toy box and some other things. I really felt good about that. For the past few days, I have basically been eating low carbs..but I have not been perfect. I so hope I can do this now. My goal is at least 4 pounds per month....
