I have another blog, one that I have been writing in for a
couple of years.
I began to feel guilty about all the personal stuff I had in
there, especially about Jesse (my partner). I pondered about what to do and so
I decided to make it private and start over with this. The other blog was also
very negative and I won’t say that this blog will be full of sunshine and
daisies but I will try to keep my bitching at the very least upbeat.
I do refer to myself as Lardass and that is ok. It is not as
derogatory as it sounds, if I was the tattoo type I would probably have it
tattooed somewhere on me lol.
Between Apr-Jun (this year, 2017) I lost 30lbs. Since Jun I
have pretty much stayed the same, going up and down by about 5-10lbs. My start
weight was 247 (Shamuuuuu), I am currently 220, which is maddening given I got
to 210 in Aug. I need to get this going again.
My Birthday is in 10 days and I really wanted to be under
200 by then. That’s not happening.
To lose weight I am counting calories in my food journal
which I keep very detailed info in. I weigh all of my food that comes from home
and try to get as close as possible with counts when I eat out (which is rare).
I do yoga, but it’s not like your average yoga. It is DDPY and its more cardio,
I love it. Its very fun and I like how he yells at me to “STRETCH
YEEEAAAAAHHHHH”. I have a cleaning company and so I clean a couple of evenings
per week though I am down to just 2 regular clients now. I love to bake and
that is how I keep busy on weekends. During the weekdays I am a secretary (at
my desk currently), there are 2 girls in my office, one of which I like to
think I am close with. She is lovely and I look up to her in a lot of ways. The
other is brand new so I don’t know her well yet. I have been in this job for 15
years.
I am hoping to find some readers and get some support and motivation.
Hopefully find a “diet buddy” or two.
I will still keep on posting pics and talking about my
baking as well (like I would ever stop). I will talk about my personal life but
try to shield Jesse like I do my kids, its more fair to him that way.
There are 3 boys, currently 20, 18 and 15. The oldest kid is
Jesse’s from a previous woman and the middle and youngest are mine from my
marriage. Oldest doesn’t live with us; he is just about to get into his own
apartment. Middle kid is looking hard for a job and youngest is in the school
play coming up, he has 2 years left until grad. So no little wee kids, for
which I am very glad, I am happy to wait now a couple of years for grandkids. I
am 38.
I have been divorced for 15 years now; my ex is a mean guy.
Jesse has been living with us for over 8 years and we are a bit rocky right now
but I do love him so much.
That’s really all there is to me.
I hope you enjoy reading!
Sorry it's taken me so long to finally follow your new blog! I've had it open in my browser for like a week, but it's taken me ages to add it to my reading list.
ReplyDelete30lbs in 3 months is huge. I'm not surprised your body hit a wall after that, but all plateaus end with persistence, and I know you're still working hard for it.
Also, what does DDPY stand for?
