Weigh in Wednesday #5 (Post Thanksgiving addition)

I haven't been blogging much. I didn't even do my Friday Funnies last week and that is the easiest post to create as there is very little thought required! I just haven't been feeling very bloggy for a while now. I sit down at the computer and all my thoughts disappear.

Currently my oldest fur baby, Jonah, is attempting to crawl in my lap. He is 19 years old and is really starting to show his advanced age. He is losing some weight and sleeping a lot more. And wanting to cuddle. He has always loved me best but he has never really been a lap cat. He will sit beside me on the couch but hated to be held. But lately when I sit down he crawls up on my lap and just purrs his heart out. I love it, but I worry. I am not ready to let my baby go!

Anyway! Here are my current numbers:

Weight: 254.8lbs  (last week 254lbs, up 0.8lbs)
Fasting blood sugar: 121 (last week 91)

I actually managed pretty well over the holiday, at least until Sunday. Then I kinda derailed on leftovers and gained 2lbs. All in all I am happy enough with these numbers. I really thought it would be worse!

Me on an average day!

I better run, I have some kitchen cleaning to do and I need to walk a bit before work! I hope you have a wonderful Wednesday!

God Bless!

Weigh in Wednesday #4 (pre-Thanksgiving addition)

This week has been a struggle. My blood sugar has been a bit wonky and I am not feeling so great. The hubby has been sick and so is my carpool buddy, so Lord only knows what my body is trying to fight off!

Thanksgiving is tomorrow and with it a 4 day weekend for me. So I fully expect that I will be reporting weight gain by this time next week. Well, actually I have to report some weight gain today, since I have gained about a pound since last Wednesday. Here are my current numbers:

Current weight: 254lbs
Current Fasting blood sugar: 99

My weight has been fluctuating a lot over the past week, the highest number being 256. It is so FRUSTRATING!! But I just keep plodding away (literally since my primary exercise at the moment is walking) and trying not to be too discouraged. Life is, after all, a series of hills and valleys, highs and lows. Why would weight loss be any different?

Do me a favor, will you? Keep me in your prayers. And my hubby, he is trying to quit smoking and is really struggling. He wants to quit, but has smoked for his entire adult life, it is a huge part of his day and his identity. He needs God's strength and his inspiration to find a new way to live cigarette free.

Thank you, and Happy Thanksgiving!! :)

Love this!!
