Went to Bismarck tonight and used the scales i had been using my scales are off by 1/4 pound so officially since September i have lost 34 1/2 pounds since i started going to Bismarck it is 24 1/2 pounds. Left there and came home then decided i didnt want to cook dinner so went to town to get a snack then i got a nice reminder of why i sometimes hate the closed minded people in this community. Now folks before you get your hackles in a uproar i said sometimes. I you got to admit we got a lot of red necks, hillbillys and small minded people around here as do most small country towns. Anyway i digress stopped in to get a soda and as i walked out this lady had the gall to tell me if i would loose weight and get a job i wouldnt have so many problems with my legs when i came out the door to the parking lot. I just smiled politely and said well at least I can lose weight but I prefer to donate to your brain transplant so you can learn manners and respect and walked off. Now those of you that know me know i have never been a model contestant being short every pound shows but before the wreck my top weight was 185 which was when i was expecting my son. In the year after the wreck i gained almost a hundred pounds but what do you expect three months of being bed fast and a year of being confined to a wheel chair you dont get much exercise and only lost about half of it when i went back to work. Still i had things i had done for exercise like going for a hike in the woods behind the house my legs would not allow so it was slow going. Then my legs finally got the better of me and I had to stop work and have another surgery and they still are not back to were i can do alot and i started gaining again. I finally decided enough was enough and started working on losing it then Irma invited me out to Bismarck and to tell the truth at first i went just to have an excuse to get out of the house and to have access to some scales but I like going and will continue to go because the ladies are very nice. And it breaks the monotony and gives me some incentive to keep fighting a losing battle lol. Tonight I left the meeting feeling good and in high spirits but by the time i got home i just wanted to crawl in bed and hide. I didnt write this to peeve someone off but to make you all think. The scares from the wreck are mental internal (heart) and external but in most cases in town i wear long pants to hide the external ones. Please do not judge people if you dont know the facts and if you see someone being rude or judgemental dont stand by and let it happen.
