OK, let me just say that these last few weeks have been hell and this is the first time in a month I have felt somewhat normal. I am still very upset but as normal my body and inner person said enough and are fighting back. Of course it helps that God finally had something to expalin to me.

Well, I took my measurements today. ICKKKK!!! So here they are...mind you I have lost 3 inches in my waist and 2 in my hips when I did them 2 months ago.

44 waist

54 hips...baby got back NOTE: it's all in the butt too.

42 bust...baby got boobs NOTE: the cup size has not ever changed and I am only 2 inches bigger now than when I was being skinny at goal weight.

29 thighs

16 arms

I am at 261. When I started this I was at 269.5. It has taken me forever to jump start the metabolism but it looks like it is starting to move. Now with all the stress it is stalled again but I am starting to change that as well. I am trying not to skip meals like I have been and I am also starting to sleep a bit better. For the last 2 weeks I have probably gotten 4 hours a night if I am lucky and I normally sleep 8 to 9.

So I think I am getting there....key word is think.

I'm new here, so, nice to meet you :)

I have to say that you sound so very much like me! Problems on daily routine, overwhelming, loosing inches but not weight as much as we wanted and , more than that is the key word you mentioned!

All I can tell you is, let's keep it up! I'm glad I found this board and we can count on one another.

Best of lucky for you! (or should I say... for us?)

Hey karrie, glad to hear that you are doing better. Just keep saying over and over again"I can do all things through Christ who stregthens me." I am a firm believer that if you stick with something it will eventually work so keep going and you will get there. glad you are doing better and hang in there. sharla
