What I'm Missing
April 11, 2011These days I'm missing:
- Enjoying fresh fruits and veggies. Fruit gives me horrible heartburn, and the thought of fresh veggies makes me literally gag.
- Running :( Any thought of movement makes me start to feel nauseous. I miss the feeling I get after a good run. At this point, I likely won't be running for quite awhile... but I certainly hope I feel like walking sometime soon.
- Pants that fit. Regular pants are too small, and maternity pants are much too big - especially jeans.
- Packing my own lunch to bringing to work... I just can't seem to pull something together most mornings.
- My CWWL (Crazy Weight Watchers Leader) and WWers peeps
- The motivation that my Thursday WWers meetings always brought.
- A good nights sleep.
- Measuring things, counting Points and journaling - yes... I'm crazy, I loved it, and can't wait to get back there.
- Chicken - just like last time with "L", really hard for me to stomach.
- Coffee - just the smell of Starbucks makes me gag, and I'm a freaking gold card member.
- Feeling the inspiration that losing weight brings.
- Peeing on those stupid OPK (ovulation predictor kit) sticks, and always getting a negative result. I swear, I never got a positive, AND I still got pregnant... figure that one out.
- Seeing pregnant people everywhere I turn, and knowing I'm not.
- PCOS - Poly Cystic Ovarian Syndrome - bite it you stupid disease!
- Negative thoughts about my body
- The thoughts that "L" will never have a sibling

Congrats on the ST piece!!
Congratulations on your pregnancy again. I can't wait to be a mommy!
ReplyDeleteGreat list. Everything has pros and cons so it's important to be honest about it.
Congrats on the Strib article!! Looks awesome! Hugs!
ReplyDeleteRead the article in Star & Tribune. I just had to look you up as I am starting the journey to lose 100+ pounds with weight watchers. Unlike you I have had a taste of desserts when I am out for the volunteer luncheons, church suppers, etc. It is only a taste but I do need to make better choices. I started WW on Feb. 15th and have lost 19.2 pounds. It has been difficult at times as food as been my friend and enemy! So, here I am at 66 wanting to win this battle. Congratulations on your pregnancy and weight loss. I am going to continue reading your blog to keep my mind on that a person can succeed. The best to you and your family.
ReplyDeleteI just found your blog and I am so inspired! I too have been battling PCOS for the past 8 years. I have been trying to conceive for the past 3. We are finally moving on to a fertility specialists in hopes that one day we can have a child. Thank you for your posts and your encouragement! I too have lost almost 100 pounds and just recently started blogging! Keep up the good work!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE hearing your thoughts and feedback. Please leave me a comment
