Well the last week has been difficult for me....I have started having problems with acid reflux and stomach issues. I have started on Prilosec and it seems to be helping, but I am very scared that I may have to give up my coffee. I have cut out the lemon juice I put in my tea and mustard, hoping that will help.....then IF I HAVE TO I guess I will cut out the coffee.
I wanted to pass along that I did go to the health food store and they do not have the peanut spread from Walden Farms.....so, I am going to go ahead and order some this week myself and I'll let you guys know how it is. I am excited about it!
Also, I was very excited this past Saturday when I purchased my first pair of knee high boots in about 30 years!!! YES!!! That is definitely an accomplishment! Go me!!!

October 19, 2011
Yes, it's been while since I updated....I've just been kind of busy. You will notice that I changed the style of writing on my page; that's because I heard through the grapevine that some of you were having trouble reading it in the handwriting style....sorry about that....you should have spoken up sooner!!!
As of yesterday I hit 195!!! That's a grand total of 130 lbs. lost, with 35 to go till I reach "MY" goal. I see the nurse practitioner on Friday for my 18 month check up. I also have hit a road block with my exercising....I have a stress fracture in my foot....which clearly means I am not able to walk or really do much of anything else related to exercise for a while. I'm having to pay a lot closer attention to my caloric intake, can't count on the walking to help walk off anything "extra" I may want to eat.
I'm still in that in between size category between a 16 and a 14....I tried on a pair of jeans today at Kohl's that were a size 14 and they went on with ease, but they were still just a tad too snug for my taste, however they had the stretch in them, so I think if I had left them on for a while they might have actually been okay. I'm really needing a pair of jeans, so maybe in a week or so I will have to go ahead and purchase some....looking for a really good sale.....still too much to lose to pay full price for anything. I am hoping that by next spring I will be close enough to my goal that I will be able to start buying my "new wardrobe". I CAN'T WAIT!!! I feel so blessed and am so excited that I have not hit over 200 lbs on the scale for several weeks now.....I'm staying very consistent between 195-197.....YEA!!! Thank you Jesus!
