She gave me two options: either work on my weight and, see her in 4 months or, she was sending me for a blood draw right then. I am terrified of needles so, getting back to mfp it was! Well, my follow up appt is tomorrow morning and, I hit my 1st goal of 10% loss last weekend. I emailed my gyn and, asked if I could cancel my appt with her as, it was basically a weight check in. I told her the goals I'd made when I walked out of her office. I told her what I'd done to succeed in obtaining my first goal. I hit send and, expected her to say she still wanted to see me. She replied with this and, while I was proud of myself for what I'd done, I've never had a Dr. be proud of my weight loss:
You are a ROCKSTAR! This is amazing. I wish everyone could do what you are doing. Thanks for reaching out. 100% you do NOT need the appointment. I will cancel it for you. Keep up the excellent work 🙂 I am so impressed with your diligence. Nice work!

So, this was a little kick in the pants.
Great work AND great Doc!

I ate something for dinner that was a much lower calorie version of something I would have eaten in the past and IT WAS TASTY AND NOT AN AWFUL ORDEAL TO ENDURE. I can't tell you how excited I was to actually enjoy something healthier, as opposed to eating something healthier because I felt I should and being miserable for it!14

In January/February I tapered down and stopped taking all my OxyContin and oxycodone which I had been taking since spine cancer in 2018. Before I was diagnosed I had just lost 30lb and 2 dress sizes, I was weight training 3x a week and super fit, strong and healthy. Really strange to enter cancer treatment in the apparent best shape of my life! Now I need to get back there. This year I am determined to transform my body again,37

I took a whirlwind trip to visit my son in Miami, ate what I wanted, and enjoyed the gorgeous weather. It felt great to know that I would come home and just get back into the swing, which I have. How wonderful not to be worrying about my weight, to have faith in the process and be willing to give myself the time I need to get healthy and fit again.14

I sat in the seats at my university's theater tonight without having to squeeze myself between the armrests. My hips didn't even reach the edges of the seat, so I had enough room to put my arms beside me without even using the armrests at all.23

Oh that reminds me! I have a necklace that I didn’t wear when it was first given to me because it was too tight around my neck. I started wearing it lately and it now hangs all the way down below my collarbones. I actually think it would be better a bit shorter!8 -
Been back on MFP since January, so far my blood pressure is down from avg. 170/88 to 140/78, so heading if the right direction.
My wedding ring fits properly for the first time in years, and I've just passed the 500KM mark on my new exercise bike

When we stopped using shop bought sauces and ready meals about 6 months ago, and started making our own, we really though we'd have to compromise of taste. After some trail and error, and a few failures, we now make everything ourselves, replacing most of the salt and sugar with herbs and spices.
The best thing about this is that friends have asked us what sauce we use for our pasta and chilli dishes, and the look on their faces when we tell them it's home made is all the encouragement we need to stick with homemade14 -
My calves just ripped my leggings open. Haha.
Gains. 💪💪☺️🤷24 -
Ok this is a big one! I'm wearing the Dragon Pants! Not just to try on, but actually wearing them. And I think I may need a belt. Just for some background, they are white, low rise bell bottoms that hung in my closet for years that I desperately wanted to wear and honestly never believed I would.
Whooo hoo! That's exciting! I have a couple of things like that in my closet as well. That will be a happy day! Good for you!2 -
I have jeans on for the first time in a year. And they look alright. I'm so happy I could cry.

I answered this before, but now I have another one. The pants I bought in 2020 when I split my pants are now too big. I need to go clothes shopping again.
