painangel's Journal

I'm such an idiot, I don't know how I get confused, but my goal updates are just journal entries.  Anyways,  I use to be thin, 90 lbs.  Really too thin.  Then I had a low thyroid problem that went undiagnosed for 3 years, throw in insulin resistence on top, and I WAS NOT A HAPPY CAMPER!  For the first time in my life, I had to lose weight.  AND bty, getting put on thyroid medication isn't a magic pill that melts the pounds away.  I had to work my ass off.  I walked twice a day and rode my bike twice a day as well.  So i basically exercised 4 times a day and it was still very diffficult to lose the weight.  I finally did but recently gained back about 14 pounds.  I so do NOT want to go back to being overweight!!!!  Well, I got on the scale this morning and found out I had lost weight.  I lost 3 lbs, but gained it back, so I was 130 again :(  Now I'm down to 122 :)  My first goal is to get where i was last time (118.)  After I achieve that, my next goal is to get down to 110.  For my size I think that is reasonable. It's not like I am trying to be 90 lbs. again.  I walk everyday, and considering I am on a gluten free diet currently, (my god, wheat, rye, barley is in everything!!!)  I've not been eating much and when I do it is healthy!  To make matters worse (or better depending how you look at it) I am on a soft diet due to my jaw pain.  Needless to say, I don't have a whole lot of options when it comes to food.  But hey, I'm losing weight so I'm not complaining.
