What the....really?

I made an astounding discovery last night! Apparently, due to my healthy eating and new mind set, my body physically rejects pizza. Seriously! I decided to indulge last night and have a few slices of pizza. My dad was kind enough to give me a pizza he bought that he thought I may enjoy. Dads don't care about calories; they love to feed their kids good food. :) Anywho, I thought, "Well, I have been so good for so long, surely some pizza wouldn't hurt me." Was I wrong about that one. After I ate it, I felt kinda sick and bloated. I used to feel satisfied and happy when I had pizza. Now I felt yucky. The grease and cheese and pepperoni all combined in my stomach to make me feel horrible! How did I ever pig out on this stuff? Now it is unfathomable! I mean, seriously, I felt like shit! I still feel like shit! My body hates me at the moment. My stomach has felt messed up all morning. I guess all these years I saw pizza as my ally, my friend. Now I see that I was wrong, pizza is not good to my body. Maybe one slice is OK, but anything more and my body starts hating me! I don't blame it, either. Being able to step back and see my supposed "favorite" foods from a new perspective is kinda cool. It helps to understand how they really make me feel, instead of fooling myself into thinking I need them or they fulfill me. I can honestly say it now: I don't need pizza. I don't even think I like it half as much as I have always thought. I am getting to know my body a little better each day! Also, I am now down 18 pounds to 250! Awesomeness!

Away they go.....

Holy horse shit, Batman! I am down yet another pound! I weighed today and I am now 251! That is 17 pounds total so far. Not too shabby! I got quite a workout today. I cleaned out a storage building. You never know just how much shit you have until you go through storage. Hell, I found a favorite book that has been MIA since around 1990! Yup...I had A LOT of shit! Boxes and more boxes. I threw a lot of it away. It felt very liberating, freeing myself from the past! (now if I could just free myself from this back pain. ugh!) I may have overdone it today, but at least it was exercise! I am only 3 pounds from my first goal, which is to drop 20 pounds. I can feel it! I am almost there! It seemed like it would take forever, but I stuck with it and now I am on that proverbial "down slope"! What a great feeling! I am proud! If I can drop 20, then maybe I can find the strength and motivation to keep going until I drop 40, then 60, then 80, and maybe finally a total of 100 pounds, which is what I want to lose. I can do this! I WILL do this! I'm going to drop this weight, and I am taking you with me! Let's go! On to the next post!
