It's been a long time...

Yes, it has been a while since I have posted so there are some good things to update:

My physical therapy did not work, and it did actually make my hip situation a little worse. I did get a few cortisone shots and this has helped greatly!!

I was really not able to do much exercise from July 2nd until just a few weeks ago. I got really tired of not moving as much as I should so I joined up with a gym and my pain situation has improved greatly since then!
I am not really a gym person but I have really enjoyed this experience over the past few weeks!

I am now down 141 pounds and just 10 pounds away from my goal of 299 pounds by my next doctors appointment on November 27. I hope I can get there!

A victory: I dropped another pant size. OK, I know this does not sound like a big deal, but when I started this, I was probably around a 74 (+) inch waist. This equals a 6X pant size. I could not really even tell you what jeans size I was because I do not think I fit into anything I had. Then I did squeeze into a 64 inch pant size, but that was still way too small. Today, I got into a 48 inch pant comfortably. When I left college, I was a 44 inch pant size.

So where do I go from here?? Let me got through this next 10 pounds and then I will make some decisions.
And maybe post another picture as well. It is good to be exercising intensely again!
