Hey, there!
Hey, all,
I haven't been on in months. Life is crazy for us, and my weight has been reflecting that. Last Friday I was up to 203.7 or 203.8. The lowest I had gotten to in October was 197. I've been trying to at least keep a food log for myself, and it does help me stay better disciplined. The scale is reflecting that as well. Today, Thursday, I was at 201. Not sure what my Fri. weigh-in is going to be. Hopefully lower! I have a LONG way to go. My dh's brother is getting married at the end of May, and I would like to be at least 20 lbs. lighter. I don't think that's unreasonable. Dh also has significant weight to lose. Thing is, I've been pretty good this week, and he has not. It all goes back to how we're going about it. He keeps wanting to do a fast. I'm just trying to make better food choices and keep track, which makes me more conscious of what I'm eating, so I don't eat as much! I'm proud of myself. Got a couple boxes of Little Debbie cakes, mostly for the kids, and I haven't touched one yet. I don't plan to. Instead I'll have a yogurt or lower-cal snack bar, or ricotta creme later on to quell the sweet craving that comes on at night. Just wanted to say "hi!" |
Jet, welcome back. Good job at keeping track of what you eat. I think if you are dedicated, you could loose a lot more than 20 lbs. Good luck! Feel free to join back in the daily thread.

Hi Jet!! Great to see you! Welcome back!

welcome back!
Try to take it in small doses. I have tried to change my mindset to say my goal is 5 pounds a month even though I really need to lose 100. That is so overwhelming so I decided instead of reaching for 100- I am reaching for 5 a month. In a year that is still 60 pounds. If I lose more great-- but I am not beating myself up for not reaching the 100 and I am happy each month to make that 5! (hope that made sense and helps you!) join us at the valentines day goal-still about a month to go!:) Laura |
