Bad Blogger!! I apologize!

Well, life sneaks up on you, eh?!

It is October 14 and my weight loss has hit 60 pounds total.  I am not on drops.  Haven't been since some time in June when the hair problem started.  Good news is that the hair loss has completely gone back to normal--meaning a few strands every washing.  I also have growing hair again, so this is GREAT.  Some areas where the hair fell out more has even seen new growth (Short nubbies now about 1/2 an inche long)

I'm toying with the idea of doing one more quick 'round' so that I lose another 15. I'd like to be at 75 or 80 pounds total lost by the time I get married next April.

I don't think I posted this before--but I got engaged in early July.  So, my weight loss has been EASY to maintain.  I fit into a size 14 'fit and flair' wedding dress...but the sizes are really weird in wedding dresses.  In regular clothing I'm wearing 8/10 slacks and Medium/Large tops.  I know I look better, but I still see the old fat girl I was at almost 220. 

It is weird being fat your whole life and then adjusting to being what everyone around you calls thin.... especially since I'm in a new job and no one knew me here when I was big.  I know I don't see myself like they see me.  I am working on it.

I have been REALLY bad about answering emails (I am in a new job, finishing grad school AND planning my wedding, so please understand I'm a TAD busy!)  I will try to lend out some books later this week.

Take care!
