It MOVED!!
The scale evidently is not broken and moved again. It actually moved the wrong direction a few pounds and just sat there. I'm now 175 pounds down and getting closer to goal!! I realized something yesterday though that upsets me a bit . . . I may never reach my goal weight because in actuality, I have about 20 - 25 pounds of excess skin and adipose tissue that will never go away. It's kind of horrible, including thighs that jiggle when I giggle. I have an appointment with a plastic surgeon on the 10th to find out how much money I will need to save.
One bad thing too is that I am unable to go back to school. My student loan money is close to reaching it's limit and will only pay for two more classes. I have to come up with almost $300 in order to take the next class. I'm going to ask my boss for help. She is an amazing person and knows some pretty influential people who may be able to point me in the direction of scholarships, grants, etc. It's pretty sad that I have a 3.91 GPA and can't get a scholarship because I didn't have children out of wedlock and have a job. I know things will work out the way they need to, I just hope I have the patience to wait for that time to come.

I was the recipient of 3 scholarships and I never had a child out of wedlock, and I always had a job to pay for the part my scholarships didn't. It takes time to search out scholarships, but they are out there.
ReplyDeleteAND you're not a minority. If I had a different major, it would be easier. Tech stuff, nursing, etc have a lot of stuff, but not so much for communications! I'm still going to keep trying though.
ReplyDeleteWhat is your "ideal" weight? Just curious because I wonder how many people feel they are at theirs. Good luck finding a scholarship!
