well, I'm 5lbs down! that's the YAY!

I was 132 when I started, and I got on the scale this morning and it read 127--I'm proud of myself, it hasn't been whole month yet. I made my first mini-goal to be 5lbs down by my birthday (Nov 10th) so I'm way ahead of schedule.. My first BIG goal was to be down 10lbs by Christmas-- I think I may eveb be able to do it by Thanksgiving


my BOO is, I've been slacking BIG time with working out I usually go for walks with my daughter in the mornings, but it's been so cold and rainy (and we've both started getting a cold) so I just haven't done it for a while. I keep saying I'm going to do a video, but I haven't.

I did do some reps of things this morning: 2 min of jumping jacks/jump rope, 3 min of weights with reverse lunges, and then 1 min of ab work-- and I did that 3 times. I just need to get myself back in gear. *sigh* I'm excited about those 5lbs, but I feel like I should have been able to do more if I'd just make myself DO SOMETHING.

BIG yay! LITTLE boo! I say that because I believe weight loss is 85% diet and 15% exercise. So not working out is not a huge set back. But that's my opinion and that's how it works for me. I work out because it suppresses my appetite and it really does great for toning but I did not see it tremendously slow down my weight loss progress.

So that's why I gave you a BIG yay and a LITTLE boo.

Congrats on those 5 pounds lost and I have no doubt you'll have those other 5 off in no time! Way to go!

dont' think about what you haven't done... concentrate on what you have done! and you have done great! congratulations!

thank you! I feel good! Thanks, ladies. It does seem to be more about the food intake-- but I want to be healthy-- and that does require some exercise, so I'll keep trying to add in some here and there


thanks again!

don't let the working out thing get you down! I couldnt work out because of a surgery and I lost weight just dieting! I'm about to start working out again you can do it!
