I've done better than I thought

Sunday, August 05, 2012

In April, measurements:
Chest 39 1/2
Waist 37 1/2
Hips 43

Today, August 5th
Chest 38
Waist 36 1/2
Hips 41

I really didn't realize that I had lost this much. It's small amounts, but I will take it. Clothes were fitting better but I didn't really realize I had done so good.
Measurements are a good way to measure progress and I am happy I've been keeping up with it. I hope all you Sparkers have a good day and remember to get in some FUN!!!

I took the BW to the urgent care center - allergic reaction with hives all over her body. We're about to relax a little how (finally). The rest of the day will be quiet. Report Inappropriate Comment

No appointments today, GOOD

Thursday, August 02, 2012

Seems like I have had an abundant amount of appointments lately. I do have one tomorrow, two Tuesday, and WW class Wed, Thurs, and Fri. I was hoping things would slow down a bit in August, but nothing doing. Then next weekend is going to be spent with my daughter and granddaughter and grandson. SO maybe I can survive until then. Hope you are having a good day. Take care.

I'm sure you can make it to the weekend with your grandkids. Just think about them if you get down - or skip a meeting if necessary. Report Inappropriate Comment

Clarifying the physcial

Wednesday, August 01, 2012

Yesterday I blogged about getting physical. I really meant it was time for my doctor to do my yearly physical exam. I had a clean bill of health and will do the preventive test such as mammo, bone density, etc.
Weight Watchers went well this morning. I had lost my usual .8 (nearly a pound), so I was happy. I have just learned to accept that I lose slowly so I must be patient and the losses will come. How's your weigh ins going? Have a great August 1. Keep Sparking.

Have my yearly exam August 13. Will go for the blood work on Monday, Aug 6. Want to see those cholesterol figures down, weight down and a smile from Dr. Holland. Report Inappropriate Comment

thanks for the reminder -- mammo time! Report Inappropriate Comment

SLENDERELLA61 8/1/2012 7:43PM

Good you are getting your routine medical care. And fantastic that you are losing weight! .8 per week adds up to 42 pounds a year. Very, very significant. Hooray for you! Report Inappropriate Comment

I'm getting my first ever physical done next month, just to make sure everything is okay. I'm a little nervous because I'm only 20 and have never had to do exams like mammograms, smears or bone density. Glad to read to clean bill of health! Report Inappropriate Comment

REXTINE1 8/1/2012 1:37PM

It's a long haul. With setbacks, it nook me about seven years to get it all off, but I have beeen stable for more than five years now - at my goal weight, or plus three to minus seven pounds. Report Inappropriate Comment

I was intrigued by your recently completed physical; I've got one coming up in about a month. Coming in with greatly improved blood pressure and glucose levels is a big goal for me, with weight loss a close 3rd. I'm glad your exam went well. I also have found that I'm slowly loosing weight and that's okay, because I'm keeping at it. The exercise part is fairly new for me, but I look forward to that getting easier.
