Results

Well ladies and gentlemen....apparently I wasn't reading the gym's scale right when I thought it said 224 LOL.  Last week I got on it and while there was big huge number 24, the LBS on the scale was still at 238.  Even at the clinic on Thursday last week the scale recorded 238, which is exactly what my starting weight was at the beginning of bootcamp.  At my mom's yesterday (I HOPE HER SCALE IS RIGHT!) I weighed in at 230.  However, I haven't been eating a whole lot due a loss of appetite from not feeling good.  But then again I haven't been working out much either.  In fact, now that I think about it.  I haven't done an OUNCE of exercise since last Tuesday (boot camp), because of how I've been feeling.  Yesterday and today I've felt absolutely AWESOME!  Not dizzy or fatigued AT ALL anymore, in fact, I MIGHT be able to actually get up early on certain days and squeeze in a workout, since getting out of bed at 5:15 is getting easier and easier.  This morning I'm pretty sure I figured out why!  I got my blood work results from the clinic and after being off of my thyroid hormone for a week my numbers were NORMAL!!!  I have no need for a thyroid hormone replacement!!! YAY!  One less pill to take and I'm pretty sure THAT was the reason for the constant sleepiness.  All of this wonderful news has given me the motivation to keep on keeping on and gives me the strength to overlook the battle I lost with a box of Girl Scout's Thin Mints last night.  It was a mistake, I admit it, but I'm not going to dwell on it.  I'm going to move on and do what I need to do to make sure it doesn't affect my journey.  I will win the battle of the bulge!!
