Befores (and one semi-after)

This is me one month ago:

This was me two years ago:

And this:

There aren’t a lot of pictures of me at my heaviest. But that should give you an idea of the difference between 280 and 200 lbs.

 

Weekly Weigh In – Monday November 25, 2009

SW: 280
LW: 196
CW: 192
TL: 88.0 lbs

Somehow I lost 4 lbs this week. Actually the more I think about it I think that last weeks .8 gain was illusory – a product of water retention or hormones or something like that. That is why you can’t really pay too much attention to one day’s weigh-in. No way in heck I lost 4 pounds this week for real. I did very little exercise this week: I walked into work and back a few times but then it got too cold (which for me is around -25).

I’m pretty lucky in that the cold spell has broken right about the same time my car did. Okay well, that is really stretching the definition of the word lucky. My car did die. Well, it’s not turning on at least. Not to mention my work computer. That had my dad’s last email to me before he died on it.

So not a good day.

I’m not sure how well I’ll be blogging this week. I’ll have tips and tricks tomorrow because of the holiday. Of course I’ve got to think of some good tips and…oh heck. I just thought of one. So tomorrow I’ll chat about what I say one should do on Thanksgiving.

Remember, I am not an expert. I am just a girl who’s lost 88 lbs. I do what I do, it may not work for you. You’ll understand this redisclaimer tomorrow.
