255

June 1st, 2019

255.  yep.  That’s what my scale said.  I must have checked the scale 5 times.  Could that actually be right?  WTF.  How did this happen??  255.  That was the weight when I checked into Baylor Grapevine Hospital, 9 months pregnant with Madelyn in 2010.  I had a baby in me.  So what happened today?

How did it get away?  Over the past year, I have had the horrible R foot pain.  I had stretched, ice, chiropractic, massage, laser treatments, and nothing was helping.  I had stopped working out with my trainer.  It was too painful.  I could hardly walk.  And I was running my business where I am a pediatric and pregnancy chiropractor.  So, I am on my feet all day.  By the end of the day, I could barely walk!!  

Well…  255.  Today was the day!  I was not going to be 255 ever again!  Today was the day I got off my ass and lose weight.  Getting my eating under control.  I didn’t really have a plan other than I needed to change my life.  But, my foot still hurt.  So, started to go gluten-free again, but this time was strict about it.  Helped with swelling a lot.  I was able to start walking on the treadmill.  By the end of June, I was down about 15 pounds and that was when I met Coach.
