I did my official weigh in this morning and I was at 215.2! Woohoo! I’m so excited! It’s funny because I knit pick my food and snacking every week, but I guess it’s kind of working, because my weight loss has been great. I guess it pays off to be obsessive/dedicated. I’m sure my intense exercise has also been helpful. For me personally, I know I coudn’t be doing one(changing my eating), without the other (exercise) and be getting these results. Next week’s results will probably suck, cuz you know, its THAT week of the month. Blah. But at least this great progress should motivate me not to lose track of my goals next week, and also not be tempted by bad cravings, etc.

Anyways, I guess it’s time to set a new 10lb mini-goal. It’s so funny, because never in my weight loss journeys before, had I ever thought about doing mini-goals, and now it seems so ridiculous that I was saying, ok I’m going to lose 100 lbs startingggg…. NOW. Yeah, right. Looking back, that was stupid. But I’m glad I came here and learned about the beauty of mini goals. They really do work. Well im so happy with what’s been happening the past few weeks, so at this point I’m not going to adjust my calories or exercise, because why fix what isn’t broken?

Ok so Five weeks from this Thursday is: March 13-New Mini Goal -205! Woohoo! Then I would be totally out of the teens, and 5 lbs away from my first reward!

Ok. So on to normal daily life:

Breakfast: 1 string cheese (60)

Lunch: (i had a pretty big lunch today because i know im having a small dinner (aka a subway sandwhich) due to time constraints tonight…so

chicken souvlaki (200), 1 cup of white riceish (205) and a bit more than half a piece of pita bread (100)- lunch total 505 (in the future though, on days where it is a regular day, and I plan on having a regular dinner, I think I should enforce only having half the rice they give me and only half the pita, or cutting out one of the two, entirely.

snack: sbd lifestyle bar, it was So good (150), and a clementine (40)-190

dinner: subway turkey on wheat with provelone (330) and a 100 pack of cheetos (100)

snack: chicken and stars soup (70)

and later on tonight i’ll be having one green apple (35)

so total for today:  1290

yay! btw, my mini goal reward is buying measuring cups and teaspoons, tablespoons etc so i can start measuring out my cereal etc.  woohoo! i think i’ll either go to target or safeway if i can find some (maybe) cute ones.  but i guess most important is that they are accurate.  anyways im super excited to buy them! woohoo! im also interested to see if my estimations have been accurate.  we’ll see!
