I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend. Our Thanksgiving was great, very quiet and simple. We were very happy to have my family over on Thursday and then Papa and Grammy over on Friday. I cooked a wonderful meal (if I do say so myself) and didn't worry about my weight all day long. That was the best present I could have given myself. So all in all, considering how much I ate that day, I'm proud to report that my weight this morning was 197.5. I only gained 1 lb over the Thanksgiving weekend and I know it could have been much worse.
So now starts the Christmas season. Cookies, candies, parties, and treats. I'm going to have to be very careful if I want to keep losing this month. When I was a member of Weight Watchers they had a saying I liked. "The Holidays are 4 days not 4 months!" I am taking some days off of course, David's company Christmas party especially! Cheryl always cooks for it and I look forward to it all year long. Yum-o.
Anyway, I'm buckling down again now. Started lifting weights again and hitting the workouts. If my doctor is right I should be able to lose most of the weight in 2 months so let's get started!
Love ya all and Merry Christmas!

My Story
Welcome to my journey! For those who are new let me give you a little background. In July of 2007 David and I lost our daughter Daisy Grace at 17 weeks pregnant. Shortly after I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism. After trying to get pregnant for several months I was diagnosed with PCOS, the number one cause of infertility in women.
After trying some medication which didn't work my doctor told me the best thing I could do to get pregnant again was to lose weight. Unfortunately both hypothyroidism and PCOS are conditions which make it extremely difficult to lose weight.
So here we are, I appreciate everyone who is running this uphill race with me. I can't tell you how much it means to me that other people are cheering me on. I hope that soon I can post for the last time, that soon the Lord will bless us with another child.

I'm impressed. I gained four pounds over the weekend, which has me all depressed and contemplating the wisdom of becoming anorexic...okay, so maybe not.
