firsttigerWhen I started losing, I sort of had this tiered set of numbers in my mind based on the whole idea that losing 10% of your body weight being a huge difference to health. There was the "have to lose " range, the "would like to get to" number and the "ha ha ha, that's never going to happen" number range. The second high end of the tier involved being within 5 pounds of normal BMI as that was what the doctor considered to be sufficient, give I started at 280. I've been really creeping down the scale for a while now, but not really minding and in that time I hit the high side of supposedly normal weight. Lately, I've been losing slightly faster and I realized today that somehow I made that last tier and didn't notice. I am now about 2 pounds away from being where I was my sophomore year of high school. It's really weird.
This last week has been overall a roller coaster week. Things of a very good nature are definitely being balanced out by what is going wrong. We're dealing with the bad and appreciating the good. In the good column, I bought tickets to Cirque's Wintuk show for the three of us in December. I'm really looking forward to the day we're going to make of it.
There's been a lot going on with Pete and I lately that I can only describe as good bonding. We're always been close as a couple, but it seems that any more, we're just doing a lot of talking and being really wrapped up in each other. I'm trying to be mindful of making sure we see our child every so often, but he's been a bit of an enabler as he is being a teen and tends only to leave his room for food.:) In order to balance our this behaviour, I've been trying very hard to make time where the three of us can do something we all enjoy. It gives us the chance to talk to each other beyond "what's for dinner" from him and "what homework do you have" from us.
At some point, I'll do more of the weight loss write up... right now I've babbled enough and have a ton to do today!
