Recent Pictures Of Me
Here are 3 more pictures of me. One taken in September with my Grandma Magsam in Wisconsin. This was a very special time for me. She did not recognize me, but did remember me! She kept saying "You aren't Eydie, you don't look like Eydie looks".
The next picture is Shelby and I when we went to St. Paul. A whole day of walking, and I did fine! Amazing what a difference 168 lbs makes! So glad I didn't have to carry all that for the day!
The next picture is one that has made quite the stir!!! I am always cold now! These are the greatest jammies! I feel like I should be in hunting camp though! Haaa! But they are so cozy and warm!
12-12-10 Up-date!
Just stopping in to give an up-date! Yay.... still on my journey! My weight now is 155 lbs! So I have lost a couple more since I last posted. I am feeling wonderful! I don't know if I will actually make my personal goal of 150 lbs or not, but that is ok. I am now 5 lbs below the goal that the doctor set for me. I just need to measure my success in how I feel, and the things I can now do that I wasn't able to do before, also the state of my health!
Just think of where I was last year at this time! I had my surgery on December 7, 2009! Just a year ago! I was in the hospital for 5 days. I was feeling SO awful at that point, but... was NOT sorry I had done it at all! I just tried to stay focused on where I knew I could go! Now... here I am. But, like I have said too... now it is KEEPING it off... staying healthy for the long haul! But, no problem, I am ready for the extended journey!!!
I also have wonderful news to bring your way! I am now a new student of North Dakota University-Grand Forks! I am taking Dietary Management-Medical Nutrition! I am doing the classes via Mail(correspondence school). It has been interesting trying to get back into the study mode, trying to zone into the schooling again, but I am really excited about it! I have been working with the hospital and clinic already, helping with some of the nutrition classes, and I really enjoy it! Nutrition has become a passion of mine now, so I really look forward to furthering my education in this direction!
Well, I hope each of you are enjoying the Holiday Season so far! Remember, with all of the parties going on, there is such a focus on foods, with the cookies and candies laying around! Try bringing a fruit or veggie platter. Make up a dip with Plain Greek Yogurt & a packet of Ranch Dressing. Mix and let sit in the fridge so the flavors blend, then serve! Yum, and with the Greek Yogurt, it is higher in protein! This is the perfect time to also remind you of my saying.....
*****NOTHING TASTES AS GOOD AS BEING HEALTHY FEELS!!!!!*****
All for now my Dear Family and Friends, my wonderful support system! Each one very special to me!!! Thank you!
Love.... Eydie :-)
