new jeans

So today was the first day I wore my new levis, I haven't worn levis in like 3 or 4 years.

Wiiiii

I got on the scales today and hit the 80lb mark. I can't believe I have lost 80lbs. I still have a ways to go but I am happy with the results.

Blah

Well the Chicago trip has been canceled. I guess maybe there will be another one planned for next year sometime. Vegas for New Years is still on the books. I look at it this way, I will be able to save more money for Vegas now. Plus that gives me more time to lose more pounds/inches before my friends that haven't seen me in a year see me. If that even makes sense. I haven't lost any in the past week or so but I think I might have lost some inches. I take the stairs more also. Sunday, I tried on a pair of jeans that wouldn't even button the week before. guess what? They buttoned and zipped up. They were a little tight but it's not like I am wearing them. I will wait till they get a little more comfortable. The odd thing about these jeans is that the first time around they seemed tight in the thigh area and now when I tried them on, they were actually too lose in that area. I have a feeling I am going to have a hard time finding jeans that fit perfect. Oh well, as long as they keeping getting smaller in size, I don't care.

Last Saturday I did the walk from obesity. It was fun. I wish I lived closer to the city, I would that walk every weekend morning. I didn't think to take pics, maybe somebody did from our team and I can get some from them. I also won a free fill from my doc's office. Yay!!!

update

Well I had my third fill on September 8th. So now I am now down 73lbs. Energy started to come back to me. I take the stairs as much as possible at work. Then some days I am just lazy. I am looking forward to my trip to Chicago, so much to see there and so many places to walk around. I hope I will need some new clothes by then.

Yay!!

Well six months in, I am now down 66lbs. It really made my day. To celebrate, I treated myself to a movie. I saw Hamlet 2. Loved it! Steve Coogan is amazing. So I took some pics before I left for the movie.

I also tried the Vivano (spelling may be off) from Starbucks. The Banana Chocolate was pretty good.

My weekend

Well my friend Kris is engaged so we all went out to celebrate. Bar food is so not healthy so I ordered chicken tenders. I really wanted a beer though. I got water instead. Still at 61lbs gone. I need a jumpstart or something. I am not complaining though. Here are a few pics of that night.






Saturday we went to the movies. Tropic Thunder is worth seeing. I admit, I love Jack Black and Robert Downey Jr. I have never laughed out loud so much during a movie. After that we decided to see Mummy 3. It was fun for what it was. Plus, Jet Li and Russell Wong!! I was in heaven.


Been keeping my calorie intake at or around 800-900. Worked in the yard and stuff too.
