I made it!

My goal was 139, which is a 90 lb loss. So I made it with a lb to spare. I guess my new challenges will be 1. not losing too much more (that is a weird concept to me) 2. Maintaining this weight and 3. Continuing build some muscle hoping to tighten up some of the loose skin.

This is me and Dontae, he is my personal trainer, he is the third one I've had since joining the gym.

Absolutely nothing against the other two...I made progress with them too...I just think my weight loss was so fast during those times and I was not strong...they got me strong enough to start getting some great results. I'm still a work in progress, but I cant believe how far I've come.  Im actually sporting the beginning of a six pack! Who would of thunk?

Tomorrow I get my bloodwork done; my 1 year follow up is  June 15.  I can't wait I know they are going to be pleased. I certainly am.

The Last Pound is the Hardest!

At one point this week I hit 139.4; that is .4 away from my goal of 139. But this morning I was 140.3, sigh. I know it's not all about the scale, I am really happy with wearing size 8, but still.  My one year surgery follow up appointment is June 15. I will get there by then!

I had my physical with my primary care Dr. last week, its official: I'm off all prescription meds; he is very happy with me.

Last week at work was a bit of an ordeal; our district is becoming a Google for Education (GAFE); so I was in the 1st cadre to become Certified Google Educators. We can take it a step further and become Certified Google Educator Trainers, but not sure about all that yet.  Let me just say, Google Engineers are amazing people...what Google can do is wonderful; but they really need to ask educators to create the test questions.

Nerding out with Google glass!

Yesterday, Bill and I drove to Shreveport, to see Blake and the Golden Knights perform at an Air Show. It was awesome. Barksdale AFB, put on a great show as did the Golden Knights. Super proud Mom right here!

And since this is a weight loss blog, I will mention that it felt great to be able to walk around and enjoy without huffing and puffing.
