Since I last posted I have:
- had baby number 2 (Who is now 2)
- gained an enormous amount of weight (60lbs)
- visited a weight loss clinic (for the first time, EVER!)
I am not used to being fat! I have always been thick, but not fat. This is the heaviest I have ever been (a whopping 216lbs). Loss (of my mother New Years Eve 2017), stress, marriage, finances, kids, and minor bouts of depression have all taken a toll on my once fit body. Nothing fits right, or looks right so I wear the same comfortable clothes again and again.
But, two weeks ago, I decided to make a change. The weather broke and I began walking with my youngest son's god-mother, Ann. Ann doesn't need to lose any weight, but she is a good Samaritan for the cause! Although I didn't weigh myself prior to walking, I feel that I have lost some pounds. (That would mean that I was LARGER than 216 about a week ago...smh).
Then, revelation came! I saw one of my best friends (and her twin sister) and witnessed the rapid weight loss that had occurred since I last saw them two months ago. One lost 20lbs and the other close to 30lbs. I was like, "I need some of that in my life!" What was their secret? I had to know! And they told me...B12/phentermine injections along with a fat burner, once a month.
So, I looked up the Right Weight Clinic in Greenbelt, set my sights on a Wednesday appointment, filled out the paperwork and got my shot in the butt, today. Average size needle. See photo below.
I will continue to blog my experience and journey to a new and improved, skinty me! A before pic is also above.
I am also vlogging on YouTube, so look me up and subscribe to see progress! You can watch my first vlog here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YsKM9l870nw
