7 Months, 1 Day!

ETA: I had to update this post as I did hit the 50 pound mark.....one day late, but who am I to complain??? Yesterday marked my 7 month 'anniversary' of going to the gym. And in those 7 months (and 1 day, lol), I've lost a total of 51.2 pounds! 51.2!!!!! I had to get on the scale 3 times this morning just to make sure I was seeing the numbers right!

For those of you that follow my other blog, On Eagle's Wings, I wrote about a roadblock that I hit this past week when I started getting some pain in my left shoulder, arm & hand. My doctor now has me on Prednisone & also Skelaxin. If that doesn't work, then he wants me to go through physical therapy & also get an MRI done. Because of the pain I'm having, I haven't been to the gym in over a week & I've also missed 3 days of work :( But luckily, my boss has been very understanding & supportive! Since I haven't been able to work-out, I've been really watching what I've been eating, moreso now than before, so I think that has really helped me this past week & a half.

That's all for now.....here's hoping I'll have another loss to report next time!

Happy Thanksgiving,
Benita
