I went for my doctor's appointment this morning. It was "technically" my 2 month check-up, although I got sick once and had a strange allergic reaction once...both which caused me to have to stop the phen so I don't count those 2+ weeks.

So, here's the Cliff's notes...I've lost 30 pounds!

Anyway, I am now at 155.6. According to my doctor, I started at 186 (according to me, it was 183 since my appt was at 5 pm and I weighed that morning...otherwise our scales are in synch). I have not been taking the whole phen pill or taking them every day (I've taken 40 of the 37.5 tabs since 3/19) . I'm paranoid that I will become reliant on the pill and then go off and gain it back! ACK!! Therefore, I take one about every other day...these past few days I did it every day because my goal is 150 by June 15th...my 34th birthday.

The reaction to lots of people is funny, but i love it! Everyone is surprised when they see me. I can't wait until I have new clothes because the ones i have are falling off of me and are not as flattering as new ones would be.

I wish my husband would notice more....he says "Well, I can tell right here and here. You're doing good." but not without my prodding. Ugh! He's never had a problem with his weight and always looks very fit...even when he's not!

I need to get back to exercising more and keeping up with my water intake. I am back to wearing my regular wedding band and engagement ring (not the ones I had my DH buy me because I have been pregnant almost nonstop the past 6 years! LOL).

I'll have to take some pictures and post them.

Blessings,
Rene
