My week and rambling.

Hubby's grandma Frankie passed on 3/26/12 so it's been a bit of an emotional week for him and his family. 

At 253lbs and size 18/20 1X and 2X pants and XL to 2X shirts.  I love that.  It’s nice to be down this low now time to work on getting even smaller.  It will be a year on April 10th that I’ve been plant based with no added oils and I’m feeling so much better.  If I had known how much better I could feel just by changing to Plant based I would of been back on it sooner.  First time I did plant based with no oils was only due to weight I was young and the weight I am right now and just wanted the weight off.  I let others tell me I needed to get back on the meats and I have lived to learn that I don’t want that.  I have put my body through years of torture for nothing and because of it I have a few issues I still need to work on and of course even though the pain is mainly gone I can’t repair all the damage but I’m going to do my best to repair what can be and to not create more.

Today finds me...

Bloating.

Don't know what is causing it still but I'm still bloating wondering if it's my ovaries causing it because doctor said I would still get some of my monthly issues since he was leaving my ovaries and that was definitely one of my issues before I had my hysterectomy.  Hopefully that will change as I get healthier as well.  Only time will tell. 

Loving losing weight I'm now 253lbs when I'm not bloated. 

Little boy I babysit is such a joy. 

Babysitting

Babysitting again.  Is a lot of fun doing activite things with him.  Walks, running, and playgrounds.  So much better then tv.

Barefooting.

For the last few months I've been working on barefoot walking outdoors.  I have gotten so I can do up to 3 miles now.  I'm loving it.  I've never liked shoes so now I go barefoot or minimalist shoes so my feet are more comfortable.

Foot again.

Seems I have arthritis in my foot and it doesn't seem to act up unless I try to eat peanut butter.  So looks like it's time to leave that a lone.  It will get better.  till then doing exercises that don't make me walk on said foot.

Walking/running

Trying to get a walk,  a run or bike ride in everyday.   I got a lot healthier last year and I want to do even better this year.  Once I get enough money I plan on joining a gym as well.  Not having a job gives me more time to work out but doesn't give me the money to do so.  Hopefully I can get one soon so far I keep hearing not hiring till spring frustrating.
