my journey to a better me

Drum roll please ……….

Weigh-in number 2 ……… down half a pound!!!!  130.0lbs

Okay, so I am not really excited about half a pound. That’s kind of a joke. But I suppose I knew I wouldn’t really be losing any weight this week. Not with the way I have been drinking. Too many parties. This coming week should be a bit calmer. I acually think I can go down 2 pounds by this next Monday. At least I didn’t gain. I guess 1900 calories a day is what I can get away with eating and maintain my current weight (as long as I keep up my activity level). Daily Plate says I need to eat 986 calories a day to lose. I think that’s kinda bullshit. Anything under 1000 calories a day doesn’t even seem healthy to me. My goal is still between 1000 - 1200 a day. But once again, I’m not going to beat myself up when I go over. I have to enjoy life, right? And I know I am not even overweight. Just over my “happy” weight.

OK … so I have a diet goal. I’m throwing a big 30th bday bash for my boyfriend on August 9th. (about a month and a half away!) It’s a pool party. I want to look good in a bikini! That’s my goal. I would love to be in the low 120’s for that, but it’s not completely about the numbers. It’s about how I feel in a bathing suit. I want to be able to walk around in one instead of putting on a cover-up as soon as I get out of the pool. I want to be able to sit in a chair in a bikini without my stomach rolls bunching up. (yes, i am only 130 lbs and I have rolls!) I just wish my boobs would stop shrinking as I lose weight. I like my Big C’s, but they quickly go down to B’s when I lose a few pounds. Soooooo not fair!!!! Padded bikini top anyone??? lol. So I figure in I lose 1-2 lbs a week for the next 6 weeks, I should be good. No more 1/2 lbs though. Not exciting enough!! Half pounds are like half birthdays, you may realize it’s there, but you aren’t exactly gonna celebrate it!!!

Ok … gonna go back to the real world now. Gotta work an overnight shift tonight and tomorrow so I want to get my errands down early. Have a nice day everyone!!!! Stay on plan!!!
