Suffice to say that I have had most of January off.
Not weighing, no Duromine, still exercising, and eating sensibly but not recording or counting calories. Just having a break until school goes back and my routine kicks back in.
First day of term one was yesterday so I am back onto it. Got myself a diary to keep track of things. Started logging in My Fitness Pal app and this morning I weighed myself thinking that the damage was going to be my first task. Especially since my period is due and traditionally I weigh more at this stage in my cycle.
Imagine my surprise and shock when the scales gave the exact same number that I was the last time I hopped on them 3 weeks ago!!!!!
87.7 kg
Just goes to show I CAN DO THIS! I can maintain even when I am not really consciously trying. I have changed my habits and I am living a much healthier lifestyle.
I am refreshed from my break and am tackling the weight loss again with renewed vigour.
I am off to the endocrinologist on Friday and will be very interested to see what he says. Last time I saw him he suggested a new drug that helps with weight loss, it is expensive and is a daily injection pen (like insulin) and it suppresses the appetite. I am still thinking about it. I am doing OK by myself ATM and, if needed, I still have 6 weeks of D in my drawer. But 3 months of this other drug might be just what I need to help me get to my goal. As you can tell I still am so undecided. The D is not as effective as it once was, maybe using this other drug will be better. IDK.... Specialist was super keen last time I spoke to him and gave me some info to look at so that he can give it to me at this appointment. I had blood tests and it may depend on the results from those. There were 17 items in the test!!!
I hope everyone is doing wonderfully.
