A number of people have told me that my hair looks good...or have asked me if i changed my hair. What I think has happened is that as i have lost weight my head has shrunk a little and my face has narrowed a little and its making my hair look a bit different. I have told one or two of these people that i have lost weight and they have looked and remarked that my face is changing some and i agree.....its not yet enough to be noticeable unless you look very carefully and therefore i think most people that notice think its the hair. now i did see some people last night at an annual dinner that i haven't seen in a while and some last remember me before i decided to start coloring my hair.....even when i let pictures be taken of me when my hair was white it would look like i didn't have hair in a lot of pictures leading to my decision to go get it done on a regular basis....this may also be part of why my hair looks better.
Anyone who doesn't think that 1200 cal is enough....when you aren't eating right hair falls out..guess what is not happening on this diet....if anything my hair is better than its been for the last few years and i think eating healthy..losing weight...and hydrating right is why. Hopefully one of these days i will have lost enough weight for people to notice.

Sunday 6march11 day 26
I missed my 1mar goal by 1/2 pound....as i chose to round my wt down last week i did get to look at 250......but i did lose that extra 1/2 pound this week so i am at 248 and am averaging about 2 pounds a week......as in the past i never did better than a pound a week over time i like what i am seeing. I am also getting used to 1200 cal which is about what i ate when i was "thin". A 2 week cal count at 122 pounds for a nutrition class in 1979 showed that i ate on average 1400 cal/d. As I am less active this days and flabbier i imagine that on 1400 cal i will end up weighing more.......I'm hoping that I can stay with 1200 cal as my base ongoing......I know that if i just go back to the way i was eating what i have lost and will continue to lose will just come back...and i don't want to carry those 188 sticks of butter, 5 bowling balls, or almost full bag of feed again.
Went shopping at wally world Fri and Sat.....got some 2x tops and they fit....one is a little tight but wearable and so i returned the 3x i bought on sale 2 weeks ago and now have some 2x pants and tops.....almost 50 pounds lost and finally was able to buy some things in a smaller size......yah! Also picked up more salad stuff...i am most surprised by how much i like chopped celery on my salad as it is one of my least favorite veggies.....but now 6 tupperwear containers waiting for this week. Also got spinach so i can do some of the new days. I had pretty much been using lots of lettuce to fill me up and last night couldn't eat it all....so salads will be getting a little smaller in size this week.
