two things that came to mind that I want to put down in writing.
The first is the pain. Something I rarely talk about but I dont' want to forget about. I went from 278 down to 230 and recently back up to 287 lbs. Once I hit the 280 mark my knees started to hurt and I found out I have arthritis in my one knee for sure, but likely in both. Along wit the knee pain, I also am just stiff. My feet ache as though I have walked a marathon, my ankles throb, my calves ache and I feel a constant stiffness in my thighs, and hips. This is alllll weight related. My body simply cannot sustain carrying this much weight. I had forgotten about the pain since I haven't experienced it for the last 5 years (while I maintained at the 230 to 250 range) . I just don't ever want to forget about this pain, because once it's gone (I think in about 10lbs or so) I NEVER want to feel this pain again - unless of course its after completing a sprint triathlon or something similar.
The second thing is an observation, not even sure if I'm correct, so if anyone is reading this, your input is appreciated. I have been extremely tired these last two days. Like can hardly hold by head up tired. I thought it was because I have gone back to work after being off for a few weeks and having crazy sleeping patterns. But I realized that this is also my day 2 with no carbs and no sugar. I am wonderin if this is the detox process. Weaning myself off the sugar and carbs that is making me feel so freaking sluggish? Hmmm something to ponder......
