I just wanna get away December 13, 2007
from the 194.8, from the 190’s period.
In order to meet my weight loss goal by christmas (5lbs) I have to loose 1.6lbs the next 3 weigh ins - that is sooo doable. Loosing these 5lbs will put me at 189.8 and that means I will be out of the 190’s - Yippee! WooHoo!
bfast: 2 kashi waffles with 1/2 cup scramble egg beaters & 1 cup coffee 5tbsp creamer = 310
snack: 2 lettuce meat & cheese wraps = 105
snack: 1/2 serving of almonds & pice of chocolate crunch bar = 205
lunch: meeting hubby for lunch
snack: wheat thins & laugh cow cheese = 175
dinner: turkey & tomato pita with mayo
snack: chocolate candy bar dipped into tbsp natural peanut butter
total for the day =
water: 12 - 8oz glasses
The big question is “What will the scale read in the morning?”
Boy am I beating myself up over this weight loss thing I feel as though I wasted a whole week even though I was sick and unable to workout I however ate to much of what I wasn’t suppose to be eating. Yes I know I will get right back at it once I am feeling better but what if it’s to late? What if the drive & the desire is gone?
I hope the scale reads as you hope, tomorrow and for the next 3 weeks, but as long as it’s moving down in general you’re a success.
And the answer to your questions “what if it’s to late? What if the drive & the desire is gone?”
It’s never too late. You can always start again - at the next meal, the next day, next week. Losing weight is all about the do-over - that’s just life.
And I really like a quote I saw the other day about motivation. ‘Motivation is like brushing your teeth and bathing. Not something to be done once, but something that needs to be renewed every day.’ (I’m paraphrasing, unfortunately I didn’t write it down)
YOu’ll be out of the 190’s before too long - if not on Jan 1 then very soon thereafter. Hang in there
1.6 lbs. per week is TOTALLY do-able! You can DO it!
My scale only does 1/2 pound increments but my goal is the same as yours. Be out of the 190’s by Xmas morning! Mine will just have to say 189.5. Good luck to us both!
