200

200...that's a big number when you're talking about how much of your love handles you want to lose.  I'd much rather it was 50...or 20.  But it's not, it's 200.  How did I come to that particular number?  Well, I went to a new doctor today.  My regular doctor referred me to an endocrinologist for my diabetes.  Diabetes???  Yes, I know I was diagnosed with it and have been taking a pill for it for the last couple of months, but me, seeing an endocrinologist?  That hit me like I got slapped in the face with a salmon!  To make matters worse, they WEIGHED me when I got there!  I don't do weighing; my regular doc doesn't have a scale big enough and, really, I didn't want to know. 

I'm going to put my weight out there so that everyone knows.  Today, February 16th, 2011, I weigh 350lbs.  My fasting blood sugar was 199.  Those are scary numbers and I am kinda scared right now.  I don't want to die an old, fat, diabetic woman.  I want to live!

So, 350 - 200 = 150lbs.  That is my goal - to weigh 150lbs.  So, starting today, I am stepping off on a journey to lose 200lbs.  Wish me luck!  Pray for me!
