Hey All-

I am nervous about my weigh in this afternoon…. I ate well during the week except yesterday… Of course the day before a weigh in….  I hope the scale doesnt show a gain!  :)

My boyfriend and I are shopping for a new gym membership-  We are going to check one place out tonight after my meeting… I am pretty sure we will go with this one based on price and what is included…  Most of the group classes are included-only spinning is ext fee per class and they have a pool!!  I will be so happy to swim again… LOL  :)

I will update after weigh in…. :)

Im back… I lost .8 this week bringing me to 195.6 getting close to my next mini goal of 189-  6.6 lbs to go… 

We def. decided to join this gym it is awesome compared to our current gym and it is only 5 minutes away where we were driving like 15 minutes or more to our old gym and they just moved 2 miles further away  which is why we started shopping a whole month early… we are on contract thru aug and paid the last month already we just want to start at this new gym right away…  i have never done any group exercise classes and normally around here they are all extra so that fact many of them are inlcuded is good.. They have a zumba class i want to try and they do have a few free rides for spinning as well just not all of them are… so I can try it out first. 

We are going back tomorrow when the membership coordinator is there so we can sign up… it will be 59 for the both of us which is 20 more but we are getting so much more and it is so much closer… that is the college student price for two in a household.  We looked at ymca but it was soo expensive we could t swing it…  plus there classes are mostly for additional fees-

 

Night-

~Howdy All~

I havent posted in a few days, but I have had some good news. 

My birthday was on 7/15 and I had a great day!  :)  My boyfriend made me a cake!  It was his first time making one and I thought it turned out great!  Very moist…. He actually isn’t the one who cooks in our household… LOL  I still made dinner but I let him help which I normally dont do.  Then we just stayed in and spent quality time togehter- no tv’s or computers on.  :)  For my present he is taking me to New York City for a weekend in Aug.  He bought the plane tickets already and booked our hotel.  We leave on 8/7-  I can’t wait!  I have not been before- 

My weigh in was on Thursday 7/16 and went well…. I was down another 1.6 lbs which was great considering I cake with lots of frosting!  :) 

Yesterday we spent the day in a little tourist town called Frankenmuth.  I have never been and it was soo fun.  We took an hour long tour cruise, checked out the historical musuem, had and awesome dinner, and checked out a bunch of the cool shops. 

I hope your all doing well with your weight loss plans!  :)  I added a few pics from my B-Day for you all.  :)

Hello!!  :)

I just got back from my WW meeting about an hour ago-  I have a fabulous weigh In with a loss of 4lbs this week which made my weigh in 198.6.  My mini-goal was 199 so I beat it!!!!!!  Yippie!!!!  I am so happy as I am been s l o w l y going for this goal now for 2 months… I feel great! 

I took some new progress pics today so I am going to let you take a look at what been changing with me!  I started at 248 lbs in Sept. 2008- I started WW @ 231 1/28-  and today I weight 198.6 which means a total loss so far of 49.6 lbs!  I am so excited at my success!  Here are the pics for ya to check out!  :) 

So it is a bit more than a month since last measurements but here are the newest ones-  :)

  • L Upper Arm: 15 1/2  Same
  • Bust 46″ Same
  • Rib Cage 37 1/2″ Same
  • Upper Tummy (roll) 42″ - 1 1/2 “
  • Wasit 40 1/2 ” - 1/2″
  • Hips 47″ - 1″
  • L Upper Leg 23 1/2″ -1 1/2 “

Well I have lost 4 1/2 ” in about a months time.  That Rocks!!  :) 

If you WANT to lose weight, you can’t have high-calorie sweets- cakes, cookies, candy, or full-fat ice cream- whenever you feel like it.  you need to either find a lower-calorie substitute that you can have every day or save the rich desserts for once a week. 

Important information for me to follow!  Lately I have been indulging whenever I want!

Good Morning!

Well- I gained 1.6 @ last wi for WW.  I keep messing around with tracking so my results are so/so-  Some weeks rock and then I gain-  I just went back to look at my goals page and I made 208 on 4/30/09 I am currently @ 202.6 so that means I down about 6 lbs in 2 months!  That rate of loss is really slow compared to my other months! 

I am re-committing myself to tracking EVERYTHING that goes into my mouth!  I am worth the time it takes to track my food!  I am also worth it to take better care of myself!  I know I can do this! 

Thanks for listening!  :) 

I hope your all having a GREAT day!  How was the weekend?

Hey All-

I am gearing up for a big camping trip this weekend!  We are leaving on Friday morning and will be gone until Tuesday-  We have a lot planned- we are going to Mackinac island for one day to bike around the island and check out some historic sites, we are going canoeing one day, we are going hiking on a trail with a waterfall, and swimming and fishing too!  I have planned healthy meals to take with us so I will be on plan!  It will be a great vacation!

I added some pics of me from last weekend when i went to a party at my aunt’s house-  Still at 201 in the pics….oh and one from today too!

  I don’t know if there will be a good weigh in tomorrow either-  I have been not doing so well in the tracking department!
