Indulge Me

Pardon me for a brief moment, but I must put it down on "paper." It makes me more accountable. I am on a diet. I mean, I am a girl, after all. Aren't we always on a diet? I've been on one since I was 16.

Before Diagnosis (BD) I've spent the better part of the last six years between 130-135 lbs. Not a bad place. Not good, but not bad. Better than average. After Diagnosis (AD) I was 124. For the first time in years I liked what I saw in the mirror; however, I was dying from the inside out. Drats.

Since then, I still don't know how to work out and keep my blood sugar in check, so I barely do, I've opened the store which is stressful, long hours and odd eating, and I've taken up to drinking wine to relax. Lots of wine. I woke up at 142 lbs. Uh-oh. Not just that, my waist AD was 26". Unrealistic? Probably, so I'd settle for 27" give or take a 1/4. Well, all of a sudden I'm 28.5"

I've been dieting now hardcore for four days, lightly for a couple weeks and been walking/jogging here and there for a couple more. And I'm down 1/2" and 3 lbs!!!

This is completely self-indulgent, but I had to put it down. Now I can't backslide. By my 31st bday, I will be at goal! Mark my text. And thanks for not hating my super, uber girly, obsessive side. We all do it - I'm just putting it out there.
