6.0 NEEDED TO LOSE TO REACH 100 POUNDS

As you can see, I am starting with my countdown to the 100 lbs lost mark again! 6 lbs away as of today! Quite a nice loss if I do say so myself for and overnight drop eh?

I posted this over at the My HCG Journey Community Forums this morning, just thought I would do the same thing here:

The convention was fun - it was fun watching people try to figure out who I was. There was one person in particular that saw me about 3 different times and I could tell she just couldn’t place me and then you should have seen her face when she figured it out! It was priceless.

On this past Sunday, at the inlaws, when we went to our Bible Study, a long time family friend was watching my daughter and I approached the building and you could see the look of confusion in his face, and he just saw me 20 lbs ago! I was like PAPA JACK! It’s ME! He is on protocol too so he knows to expect changes! LOL

I am just going to say this - with nothing else - Dr Phil said it best when he said “The best revenge is LOOKING GOOD” - and people, that is so TRUE! I saw some people that have not been that kind to me over the years and they had to swallow their pride when they saw me. I am not one to gloat, but peeps, I had to - it felt SO GOOD to be THINNER than them.

At times, very seldom, but it does happen, this protocol is a curse. You look at people differently, you start wondering if you should say something to these that are morbidly obese about this miracle you have found. It saddened me to see so very many people in this category, but I was actually scared to say something. Some of them are full of diabetes, and some are walking with walkers or canes, or worse yet, they are so big they have to be in motorized wheelchairs.

What do you do? It’s a quandary I tell you.

Anyhoo - when I was in Cali in mid Feb and mid Mar my niece (also did protocol) had given me a plethora of clothes, but in particular, 3 Ann Taylor dresses. While I was in Cali, I couldn’t get them ZIPPED, no how no way. They were all size 12 Petite. Gorgeous dresses, all black and white.

Each week on protocol I would take them out and try them on. About 2 weeks before the convention, I pulled them out like I usually did, and all of a sudden they FIT! Now I was worried if I might get too SMALL for them! And that actually DID happen! They were all a little too big around the top area, but I wore them ANYWAY!

Here it is - I am standing with JPS - but she doesn’t like anyone seeing her face so I blocked that out.

So what do you think? HA! I felt SO GOOD!

How is that for an update?
