Thanks, gardenerjoy. You know, I wish that I could congratulate myself for being persistent, but in some ways, I'm really disappointing myself. I know that I should be thankful for every loss, but I'm lacking the diligence that I had last month. I just ate a piece of apple pie last night at 10pm and threw my calories way off for the day! Bad RVA.
I know that I need to be easier on myself, as this is a tough month, and just want to say to everyone else who's trying hard to lose this month: Do your best, but if, at the end of the holidays you haven't gained, you've still won.
That'll be my new mantra. Five more pounds for me to make goal. That might be a lot. We'll see. I'll just be happy if I can get more than five real push-ups accomplished in a row!
So, I lost 2.2 lbs since yesterday! So that puts me at 195.1 and I have 2.1 lbs until my goal. I'm going to change my goal to 191, even though I actually want to be under 189.
Hey everyone I had my first weigh in lost 9lbs! I was THRILLED!!
My second weigh in will be on Tuesday. I am trying not to weigh in between cuz I was weighing like 10 times a day and as you know your weight goes up and down so no more weighing in between. Too crazy.
Hoping for 3 lbs this week. But not to sure. Just not feeling it. (fingers crossed)
Today I weighed in at 194.7, so I lost another 0.4 since yesterday. I really, really want to have lost the weight I regained by New Year's. Here's hoping!
Is it too late for me to join? I am new to this website and I am looking for something to help me jump start my weight loss and this challange seems like it will do the job! If it isn't too late, I would like to lose 10 pounds by January 1st!
I weigh daily, but it seems like I only post here when I've hit a new low for the month. Maybe it would help motivate me if I posted every day. Hmmm.
Okay, we'll give it a shot. Some of today's gain is sodium from an Asian-inspired dish for supper last night and some is too much of my own home-made bread. The sodium will come off quickly enough and I had all the bread I'm going to eat today at breakfast so that should help.
Well the month is pretty much halfway over and I am over halfway to my goal, however the tough days are still ahead. Hopefully I can still make it! And the rest of you can too!
222 this morning! Worked out this morning too, but had lunch with my mom and didn't have a chance to weigh-in post workout. Excited to weigh-in tomorrow, and planning a long workout to hopefully be in 220.5 post-workout! Goal is 219 by friday!
