It's Been A While

Friday, October 22, 2010

Yes it has been a while since I've been here but I have been doing good. Haven't gained any weight, still losing. I have been real busy in my community trying to keep things going and alive. Still doing my volunteer work, walking every where I go and making sure not to fall into the traps of the past. Still being the vegetarian that I am and the label reader even more. It always helps to know what I'm putting into my temple and taking care of it. I'm the one that has to live the life I lead and take care of it and make sure that I stay above ground for as long as I can :-)

It's been almost a month since my last blog entry. Both me and my son are doing much better. Life has bee blessing the both of us after what we have been going through. It was a rough road but now things are really looking good finally. The weight is still coming off and I am still being good with the eating habits. The worse thing that has bee getting to me and most people may think that this is minor but it really isn't, is going clothes shopping. Just when you think you have everything down packed and your all set in everything. I thought that I was going to be all set with clothes and be able to start slowing down when it came down to losing weight and start fitting in one size. That is not always true because you still lose inches. It also does not make up for skin removal that I still have to consider. I will cross that bridge when I come to it. I thought that I was going to be ready to go for that soon but seeing that I have been still losing weight and inches it really does not make sense for me to do that right now. I know some people who have gone for the operation and had to for another because they lost still some more weight and had some more skin to remove. I want to remove as much as I can possibly can at once. I know that some people have lost to much weight. I never thought that I would have to come to thinking about that but sometimes I wonder. Who would ever think that ever being as big as I was would ever have to think about losing to much weight. If it isn't one thing it would be another lol. I can't complain about to much because I have my good health, son and a good life right now and would like to continue all that.
Well that is where I stand right now. I just been a little to busy with a new business, relationship, 2 jobs and getting everything else back on track to be online here but wanted everyone who reads my blogs to know that I have not fallen off the wagon of weight loss . It is still happening and when I get a chance I will have new pictures on the site.

Out Of Touch

Wednesday, January 28, 2009

I just wanted to let everyone know that even though I have bee out of touch from Spark People I have not been out of touch from my diet. My son has been in the hospital and I am just recovering from a bout with pneumonia. Do know that I think about you all every day and I am always thinking about keeping on track. I am still losing weight (being sick I lost another 15 pounds) not sure if that was a good way to lose weight but it came off. I should be in touch with everyone as soon as possible. Hope you all are doing well.

Ask The Experts

Tuesday, October 28, 2008

I thought this was some good advice to share here on my blog. I got it from my spark e-mail. I think we are always trying to figure out how we can lose fat around our stomachs:

What can I do to lose weight in my stomach? I’ve been doing lots of crunches but they don’t seem to help.


There is no way to target weight loss to a specific area of the body because your body decides where it wants to put on weight and where it wants to take it off. The midsection is a common "problem" area for many people.

The best way to lose fat is through cardiovascular exercise. It is important to do a variety of abdominal exercises (including crunches) to keep your core strong, but until that excess fat is gone, you will not see the muscle definition. So if you’re not doing cardio, crunches are not going to help get the six-pack you’ve been hoping for. Regular cardio exercise at a level that’s challenging for you is your best bet.
