Weight Loss
Well I was scheduled for an operation on the 23rd of January, 2006 to have my reproductive system fixed. My husband and I have been trying for almost three years to start a family and have had no success, I haven't even ovulated in that time. So the Doctor told me that I had to get my blood pressure under control or they wouldn't be able to operate. Well the only way I know how to do that is lose weight and excersise. So I know myself well enough to know I have no will power. My husband lives on Sugar, he's like 6' and weighs maybe 140lbs. So I decided that I needed to be drastic. So I looked into a diet clinic called Dr. Bernsteins. This place monitors you very closely and guarentee's 10lbs a month but you can lose up to 20lbs or more. So far it's been a month plus 3 days for me and I have lost 27lbs. I don't feel hungry like I usually do, I don't feel weighed down and it has become almost a social thing in my life with going to the clinic three times a week. You get to know the nurses and they get to know you. They test your urine on almost every visit, if your burning well they will treat you by not making you pee in a cup. If your not burning that means your not following their diet and they will lecture you, gives you that extra incentive. So far the only negatives I have experience is the fact that I am always COLD! Oh and that my wedding rings keep falling off. A lot of people call this a starvation diet, but frankly I very, very seldom find myself able to eat all the foods they tell me I can eat, I find I force myself to eat most of the time. My stomach is no longer telling me to eat, my head is. It's still hard at home with all the sugar around, mostly now that christmas is getting closer. I have a goal that by New years I need to lose another 13lbs at least, So I need to stay focussed and work my ass off. I even talked my husband into letting me move my excersise bike down to the living room so that I can bike while watching TV, instead of sitting on the couch. Now I am even thinking about a job switch. Hummmm! Anyway I am hoping for the best, I just need to stay encoraged right?
