I spoke with grandma that morning and even though cancer is in her, cancer is NOT her. She sounds as strong as ever. That afternoon she was going to see Lincoln with my aunt. Nothing seems to stop her. Inspiring.....
My friend Virginia finally showed up yesterday. Well, she's actually not my friend- she wreaks havoc hormonally in my body and she gets on my last nerve! PCOS is a hormonal imbalance causing cysts in some woman's ovaries, but not mine. PCOS causes me to only see Virginia maybe 6 times a year instead of 12. Virginia comes every 40 + days on average instead of the 'normal' 28 days. So because she takes longer to get here my hormone levels are at elevated amounts for longer periods of time causing increased water retention! TADA- the reason for 2 weeks of really no weight loss! She drives me crazy.... Since she has arrived the scale has been down 6 pounds in 3 days! craziness. That would mean that I have lost about 20 pounds. I am going to hold off until 'official Monday weigh in' to make a grand total and make it Official.
day 23 food- tough cuz I was craving everything under the sun- darn Virginia
BUT- I made it through , eating an extra choc pb medifast bar. Not too shabby. Virginia will not beat me!
day 24- Stayed the course
Meal 1- pb choc bar
Meal 2- Lemon Merengue bar
Meal 3- pb choc bar
Meal 4- cappuccino
Meal 5- pb choc bar
Meal 6- lean and green- grilled chicken salad Caesar dressing
I am hoping and praying that as I lose weight Virginia treats me better. 2 solid weeks of water retention... Really Virginia? You have got some nerve! but again... You Will Not Beat me!! Even though you treat me bad, God has good plans for me! He can create life inside of me even if you only show up once and awhile. So phooey on you!! GOD is GOOD. GOD is LOVE.
