Weight Loss

I'm down to 258lbs! My goal for this year was to be 250 by Christmas. That's 8 more pounds in 12 weeks. I can SO do this! The funny thing is, I haven't really been TRYING. I'm not exercising and I'm not eating as many fruits and veggies as I should. I guess it's the coffee and Second Life diet *laughs* Hey, whatever works, right?

Happy Birthday Health Checks

Happy birthday to me (on September 3rd... I forgot I have a blog lol)! Soo.. what's new? I'm 32 now. We had a little get together for labor day/my birthday on the 4th. My cousin Jessica, her husband Dave and their kids Zoey and Isabella came over along with my Uncle Chris (Jesse's Dad), cousin Joey and of course my Mom and sister and her two kids were here since they all live in the same building. The kids had a lot of fun and Mom baked me an apple pie.

^_^ <-- happy pie face!

So after eating pie all day, I went to the doctor last week for my annual physical. I got all the bloodworks done for old fat people and it turns out that I'm 100% healthy! My blood sugars, cholesterol (good and bad), iron, blood pressure and everything else is exactly perfect for a person my age. The only thing "wrong" with me is my weight. The doctor was very surprised. I am 5'6" and as of today I am 262 pounds. This is the lightest I've been in years. I think I'm going to start posting a photo of my weight every week just to keep myself motivated.

Also, I went to the dentist. I haven't seen one in about 15 years. I had no pain/discomfort before but apparently I have a few cavities and one was a big huge one. So I had my first filling done on Monday. It was not an extremely pleasant experience, but it wasn't awful either. The worst bit was laying there for an hour with my mouth open wondering when this is all gonna be done already. He did the worst one first, and there was minimal pain afterwards so I'm hoping the next three times I have to go (to get the rest of the fillings done) will go as well or better.
