musicaljan, that is awesome! Half way there. Congrats on getting your blood pressure and sugar levels down. I like you am already feeling a lot better just with loosing 15 lbs. But, this time, I too am going to stick with the program and when I reach my goal weight try to find a way to keep off for good. I am so sick of being heavy and feeling weighed down. Of course it wouldn't hurt my feelings to shop for normal size clothes.
I haven't shopped for fun stuff in a very long time. This year will be the year!
Congrats on that as well. I bet it was fun to shop for a whole new size. Even if it was just a few new pieces to get you to the next size.
I too end up making 2 meals. It sometimes is a pain in the butt. The men in the family are a tad over 6' tall and never have to worry over what they eat or their weight. My daughter who is married and not living at home is more like me. She is 5'3 and I'm 5' 1. We just can't eat the same as them.
