Intro day

Well today I went and got weighed and measured... got all my supplements and food.. and a great pep talk from Pam the wonderful woman who got me started today.. Tomorrow is my first day.. I was nervous about it for some reason.. well now.. not so much so.. It will be a huge change in the way I eat and drink.. I am not sure how cutting all the carbs out of my diet is going to affect me.. although it says that possible side effects can be headaches- they also tell you how to help get rid of them too.. My starting weight---- dum dum dum dum-- 245.5lbs.. :(
I go next Wednesday to get weighed in and measured. Will see how much progress I make in my first week.. :) I plan to take this by the horns and get down to 170lbs.. :) :) talk to you all tomorrow.. :)

new start...

Well tomorrow starts a new sector of life for me... I have decided to take control of my life again.. I start the Ideal Protein weight loss program.. WOW.. I am tired of hating to look in the mirror EVERY single day because I "hate" what I see...
I was going to have a gastric bypass in Winnipeg MB BUT... that hope got dashed in January... I was called for an appointment BUT when she booked my apt she "forgot that I was not from Manitoba-- this after i had told 4 times or more that I was not.. She even had to call me so doesn't the phone number give her a clue? apparently not. Well when I pointed out to her that I was told because I was not from the province I would have my consultation apt and dietician apt back to back- she says oh your not from MB.. UMMMMM no .. the whole time I am thinking wow this chick is really dumb ( for lack of a better term) she then informs me that they are still only working on Manitoba patients but will check with the partners in the firm.. Came back as a no.. well I cried for 2 days- I was totally crushed... I wanted it so bad.,.. Well it spurred me into eating healthier and for the first time in 10 years I started losing weight.. I am ashamed to say it but at Christmas I weighed 265 lbs. To date I am 234 lbs now... WOW hey.. well I have stopping losing and have been stuck at this weight for a couple weeks.. so I made the decision to start the Ideal Protein program... I plan to write about my progress everyday.. as I know this will be a tough journey...
