Weekly Weigh-In

17 lbs to Go! That still sounds like a lot, but that number is shrinking. Earlier this week I put on an old pair of jeans that finally go over my hips and bottom. Yay! However my gut still hangeth over the top. Boo! I have 6 weeks to get that 17 to a Big FAT 0.

Weigh-in Wednesday

I know its again Thursday morning but this is from yesterday.
# to goal 19
That's a four pound loss which is awesome but it doesn't feel any different. I'm not complaining its just odd to me how some weeks the scale will move and it all feels the same and other weeks the scale doesn't move but your pants are loose. SHout Out! To my friend Amy she has a few less "pants on the ground" meaning they now fit instead of sitting in the dreadful pile of Don't Fit. Way to go girlfriend!!!

Weekly weigh in.

What the french toast!! I'm up one pound. Ugg. Actually considering my diet this past week including the to die for peach desert my neighbor brought over last night (which I consumed all by myself)....I am not surprised.
I am cleaning the slate today, getting back on the wagon, whatever you want to call it. As of today I've got 23lbs to go to reach my goal. I'd like to hit my goal in 8 weeks. For easy math the new goal is 24 pounds. Roughly 3 pounds a week. I'm going to need to kick it!!!! Big time!!!!

STOP don't do it!

Note to self: free days are toxic and you're gonna be sick! It started with a football game on Saturday. I shared a hot dog with Rems. UofU has awesome dogs and they always taste best at a game. Sat night until about 2amI was busting a move to get ready for Noahs blessing and need a fully loaded coke. Sunday of carbs carbs and more sugar n carbs with a little lunch meat thrown in. Between wine cake, peach crisp and all of my favorite things I'm gonna be sick. I seriously have a sugar headache this morning and my belly is still rolling. ugg moral of the story. It all looked divine and they used to be my favorite things but truth be told after not having sugar for so long it didn't taste as good as I thought it would and this morning after feeling is not worth it. I gotta go find some celery! Have a good week!

Follow through and humble pie.

I actually did what I said I was going to. I took a trash bag and hit the pantry, fridge and snack cupboard. I tossed everything from frosted mini wheats to graham crackers. I even emptied the cookie jar. And wa-la two nights in a row now- no midnight snacking!!! I hopped on the scale to see if it made nay difference and it did...down 2lbs. Feeling pretty good I put on my favorite shorts and t shirt. I was helping Zoe get dressed and she said, mom your belly is still fat. Thanks Zoe. At the pediatricians office today they have all glass elevators. Not sure why. Entertainment for the kids but torture for the mom because it allowed me to see every fat roll on my back and sides. SUPer! Nothing like elevators and your 4yr old to keep you humble.

Long Haul

Weigh-in Wednesday
Bad news - no weight loss this week
Good news - 3 pairs of work slacks that didn't fit last week fit this week!

I'm bummed about the no loss situation but excited about the pants fitting. I need to adjust three things for next week, and I think I can get the scale to move.
1. Start drinking early. I know I sound like an alcoholic but I'm talking about water. If I start downing it early in the day it helps with cravings etc.
2. Get ALL the Damn treats out of the house. Sorry kids. But I can't seem to control the late night snacker. Sooo if the only option is healthy stuff at 2am so be it.
3. Increase activity. Brian was traveling last week and again this week and I use that as an excuse to not exercise.
NO more!
I'm on it Blue Bonnet!
