Yesterday was a rough day at work but I've come in with a positive attitude today
.
Diane-Thanks for the support. I have so much more to lose. I actually started weighing around 290 lbs and now I'm down to 247. My goal right now is 195 lbs but I'll see how it goes. I might take it lower but I'm 6 feet tall so I'm very deceiving. I can't believe I put my weight here
. This is a milestone for me but I'm glad I did. I need to face the lbs. I have a total of 52lbs to reach my goal than I'll decide if I want to go further. I've been as small as 220 and I actually started looking sick but I didn't eat healthy I just wanted the weight off so I starved it off and that makes a difference. It's taken me a while cause I wasn't really serious and I would take a pound off here and there but now I'm ready to get rid of all of it! I am truly on a mission that I feel is possible at this point.
This week I plan on going back to LAWL, I've tried and it's been tough getting there but I really want to cause I want the stabilization and maintenance plan. That's were I always mess up so it will be good to see how it will be this time.
Skychick-Good luck on your weigh-in and try not to beat yourself up to much. We've all been there but what's most important is that you're back on track and doing well. Hopefully, you know I totally agree with Tab regarding the workouts and I'm still a big girl
but I go anyway because it's for me and no one else. I can't look at what I see now, I see myself as a size 12, that my determination. I was so tired this morning, I worked 11 hrs and had a meeting last night so when I got home it was 9:30PM. Then I needed to prepare my DH & my things for today but when I got up this morning I really didn't want to go the gym but the body did so I obeyed. Don't worry about people, they have goals just like we do, whether it's to get stronger, increase there endurance level or like us lose weight, we just gotta do it for ourselves! You'll be jusst fine.
Tab-I have 10 more sessions left with the PT and I really hate to stop. He's killing me in a good way. He's pushed my levels up and I'm running at 6.5 now. I always thought I was doing some thing on the elliptical but now I'm doing levels 8 & 9 and it's a real challenge. I would love to workout with my DH, he hasn't been in a gym since his boxing days (lightweight!). Anyway, Tab, you sure know how to make food sound so exciting, I believe you really enjoy your desserts and that 's OK cause you'll stay in that gym for a couple of hours a day!
Hey, where's Gina & Kitkat
. I miss you both!
Until later, have a great day!
