*consulting the calendar* 16 Week Update

16 Weeks - wowsers!

The last two weeks since I've been home from Europe have been tough.  I've started journaling food again and upping my gym time.  I am still hoping that this slow down has more to do with the fact that I lost SO MUCH in Europe.  I wish I could bottle whatever it was about Europe that made me lose so much!  I think it was running around like a maniac and being hyper vigilant about food...and also not liking a lot of the food on offer.  I also didn't weigh myself for the entire week.  I wonder if that helped at all and if I should try it at home. Normally seeing that # go down helps but seeing it go up or stay the same is really bad psychologically.

I had also been bad about taking my meds, any meds, for a while and my Therapist kind of got on me about that.  She basically feels that my prior bad eating was a way of 'not taking care' of myself and now that I have that more or less under control that "not taking care" of myself "need" is manifesting itself in other ways (not taking my meds even though I know I need to).

So, I'm back on my meds and trying really hard to take them every single dose w/o fail.

The numbers:

HW: 335
SW: 327
CW: 261

Loss of 74 pounds!  One pound shy of my next milestone!
