After a strange dream, I made a funny realization... I think I know why losing weight is scary for me... because then I don't have an excuse. If I am overweight, I have an excuse for why I'm not dating and why guys aren't interested in me. But if I lose weight, I won't have that excuse anymore. Then there's something else. I don't know... it is just something that I have been thinking about.

There is talk that a year from last sunday (January 13) that we are going to run a half marathon... I don't think I can do it. If I want to though, I'm definately going to have to get to working. I'm really going to work because I want to be able to do it with all my friends!
Also...
Today I went to Jack in the Box for dinner and I had the chicken club salad... IT WAS SO GOOD! I was already full by the end of the salad, and then I realized I hadn't even had the chicken that goes with it! Definately going to keep that in mind!

It is 6:13 and I have been trying to get dressed since 6am! Everything I put on, is too huge! I put on one pair of my nice black pants, and you would have thought I tried on a size 500! They wouldn't even stay on my hips. At first I thought I would be able to just do it for the day (since clothes that actually fit are a little scarce around here)... but when I walked from my bathroom to my closet... it was a definate nope! So, that was REALLY exciting... but VERY VERY VERY frustrating... even worse with no sleep and no happy pills. ugh. BUT, the fun part is, I found a pair of pants I didn't know I had... I have had these pants for a few years obviously, because they are a size smaller than what I have been wearing (24 instead of a 26)... and they still had the tags on them. They were still on the hanger from the store!... I put them on and tada!.... yes, the fit.... but now what shirt?!?!?!....oh the issues of losing weight. (but I like it!)

Well, here is my first post. I was inspired to do this from People magazine this week. It was about people who were half their size! So I have begun this blog to document my trip down Weight Loss Avenue.

Well here's the scoop. Last year in October, I found out that have a thyroid disorder called Hashimoto's disease... along with hypothyroidism. One of the effects that this has on you is a problem with loosing weight... But through the miracle of medicine, I am getting my thyroid levels back on track. Today, over a year later, I have been taking medicine and which allows me to loose weight.
