Going to Lose: My Weightloss Journey!

I had a great Long weekend.  I had a fabulous gym workout on Saturday then I did a nice long hike with my friend on Sunday.  Then, today I shopped hahaha. But that was good too!!

I didnt eat fabulously this weekend, but I didnt eat horribly either.  It’s still a short week this week, but I’m doing my first official weigh in tomorrow morning, even though I know that a) the number is going to be bad/ too high and b) my official weigh ins will normally be on Monday mornings.  So, even though I know that the number I see tomorrow morning on the scale will be scary, it’s time to face the truth, so that I can see major results next monday.  so, time to face the facts! for real! even though I really dont want to I am going to face the truth and step on the scale tomorrow, record the number, and aim for a much lower # next monday am.

So the plan for this week: 144 oz per day

gym: tues night, wednesday night, thursday night, saturday, and sunday.

food plan: 1200 or less calories and completely planned meals T, W, TH. then Fri, Sat and Sun I want to have 2 of my 3 meals cooked/planned at home and only one out on each day.

water: 144 oz per day

AND the big news!! I am making a new weigh in Page! Because, not that I’m starting over, but I want these next 3.5 months to be a fresh start, and I dont want to look back at where I was before and feel bad about where I am now.  I just want to focus on these next 3+ months and make as much progress as I can.

ok cool! off to make my new weigh in page!  I will also make a new ticker tomorrow night, when I set up my short term goals.  and know what my weight is tomorrow.

night all! so excited to face the facts and start this journey again and better than before!

ps!- i changed my title because I am no longer a student! WOOHOO!!!!
