Yea, remember that whole avoid sodium thing? Heh. Bacon and eggs for dinner.
My husband took the kids out last night to buy me a birthday cake and presents and brought home some chili infused chocolate as well... and I'm afraid I couldn't resist it, so much for the low carb deal as well.
I'm up to 122.3 today, and I've made a decision. I've told my fitness program that I want to maintain this weight. I know this sounds ridiculous, but I was feeling
so much pressure from the program it was stressing me out. :)
I know what I'm doing and how to release these 5 or so pounds without the program, so as I release, I will simply tell the program to maintain that new weight. Pressure gone. I am still a little swollen, I weigh what I did when I met my husband, I wear a 4, and I'm healthy.
Yes, I would love to be 117 pounds, but I won't stake my happiness on that. I'm still healing and priority #1 has to be my health and feeding my body what it needs to repair itself. I have HCG on its way and can do another short round in May, if I need or want to.
Breakfast? Coffee with half and half and a slice of Julian Bread with butter. Divine.
On a completely separate subject,
I have set my DVR to record the Tyra Bank's Show today. It's about a 7 year old and an 8 year old who are transgender. My nephew was born a girl but we always knew the day would come when he'd say he was actually a boy. So far I'm really impressed with how his friends have accepted him as a boy. He's even had a girlfriend (he's 15). I think this is one of the most misunderstood conditions. Hopefully the show will help people to understand that it isn't about being gay (which I am also supportive of), it's about being another gender entirely.
My nephew wants to get the hormone treatments as soon as he can, but his father is resistant unfortunately. He is also saving money for an operation to change his sex officially. I spent about as much on myself to enhance my femininity. I hope to figure out how to raise money for him when the time comes.
