Quick Diet Update

12 pounds down!  8 to go until I get to buy some new clothes!  Dan has motivated me by telling me when I hit 20 pounds, I get to buy an article of clothing for every 5 pounds lost.  Once I hit 20, I get to buy 4 items of clothing - woohoo!  I'll have to get me some NICE jeans - maybe he should have put a price limit on those four items...

I've been having some pain in the gall bladder area (front right side of my abdomen), so I'm not sure what that's about.  It doesn't seem associated with anything I eat (since I'm not eating any real fat or any dairy whatsoever), so I'm hopeful that it's the good "twinges" and something of a healing nature is going on in that area.  It's not really painful - just subtle discomfort that comes in small waves.  I don't feel anything most of the time.

It's been 26 days, and I've got 29 to go, so we'll see if I can bring the total weight loss to 25 pounds in that time.  Wouldn't that be incredible?!  Okay, I now have renewed motivation - maybe if I got on the treadmill a few times a week, I could push it to 30 pounds!  Sweet!

More to come...

  1. I think if you lost 30 pounds you'd disappear! But I'm so proud of you for sticking to your diet and I can't wait to see what kind of jeans you get ;) I'll be praying that your gallbladder is healing!
