WOOHOO

I lost another 2.6 pounds!! YAY!!! I was prepared to be disappointed from eating more than I should have on that business trip last week.... but I did it! Yay!

I'm down 16.4 now and ridiculously excited. I need to figure out how to celebrate now! :)

I can't believe I'm already just a few pounds away from my big 22 pound goal.

Hell yes!

rollercoaster week

So this week, I had to weigh in a day early, due to a business trip. I didn't lose anything this week....which i'm actually ok with. I've steadily been losing, and didn't do as great this past week. It just got worse though. On my business trip, we had nothing but decadent food. It's so hard to be good when your options are rich or heavy foods! I didn't track anything, but I'm kinda ok with it.

I'm home now, and just walked the dog 1.75 miles. I just kept turning corners and walking further. I could have done a bit more, but he was looking really tired. I think I'll walk with a water bottle next time so he can have a drink.

I had my iphone with me w/ headphones and listened to my favorite pandora radio station....songs related to the artist Just Jack. It's PERFECT and makes me happy.


I'm going to keep this up - I had a good time walking and the pup is more than satisfied :) yay!

Weigh In #8 i think

Doooo da do doooo! I lost another pound. Hooray!

The true challenges this past weekend have been me not tracking anything since Friday, eating a burger (and my first helping of fries since Feb!), going to a dinner party, and just being pretty crazy-busy. I survived yet again though and feel good about it. I think I have finally figured out how much to eat and what choices I should make when I am eating. It's good.

Yay.

Yet another Weigh In

Well - - I expected the worst tonight. Why? Because I had an insane week this past week and drank beer and celebrated a great event that I put together.

Thankfully though, despite that, I lost another 1.4 pounds! this puts me 12.8 down. Yay! I can do normal things and still lose weight. Hooray!

I'm waiting right now for another king ranch casserole to cook. I'm super excited to eat it. It'll be a good celebratory dinner.

Weigh In!

Before stepping on the scale yesterday, I said to the leader: "I will be shocked if I did anything good this week progress-wise" She replied with - well prepare to be shocked.

I lost 2.4 pounds this past week..... despite me having a giant margarita last Friday night, and despite me working 15 hr days and eating not as healthy due to a lot of busy stuff going on right now. YES!


This means I met my first goal of 11 pounds. I've currently lost 11.4 pounds....just from eating a little better. I plan on adding some more activity and cutting some more things out of my diet soon which will probably help me lose even more.

I changed my little progress bar on the right, since I met my first goal. The next goal is to lose a total of 22 pounds...I only have 10.4 more pounds to go. For the first time ever, I feel like this is attainable.

I know I can do it. I just have to keep at it.

Indian Food

Our department hosted a lunch today and catered in Indian Food from Bombay Grill. I was kind of hesitant, but ate the chicken curry, rice and pita bread type things. It was good but a bit spicy for me. My stomach has been grumbling a bit - I think i'll eat something bland for dinner.

I'm hoping that my weigh in tomorrow is good.I'm just 2 pounds away from my first goal. I have so much more to go, but that first goal of 11 pounds will be so great to reach. I'm not gonna hold my breath though, since I've been so busy and eating not as fantastically the past week. Baby steps. I have to keep telling myself that.

At least the numbers ARE going down, even in small doses.

I feel like I have completely changed how I eat, and just so much about myself in a month. It's a good thing, definitely

Weigh In

So I lost .8 pounds this week. It wasn't monumental but it's another loss.

YAY!

It's been a little stressful this week preparing for the art exhibition I'm putting together, and at work, most of my meals have been catered this week. It's been rough not being able to make the choices I would have normally have made for food, but I survived. I didn't take the cheesecake brownies. I didn't touch the cake covered in icing. I rocked it out with self control.



By the way - - for some reason I didn't see all of your comments until a few minutes ago. I'm having some blogger comment issues. I don't even see how you guys were able to leave a comment, because I just added the Comment button (didn't know it was unchecked). Hi I work with technology hahaha.
