Lose 30 pounds

I did it! It took me a little over 6 months to loose 30 pounds. Now the new goal is to keep it off.

I posted a 1.4 pound loss this week!

I can’t believe I only have 0.8 pound left. I was hoping to reach my goal as a XMAS gift to me… oh well – 29.2 pounds is enough of a gift to put a smile on my face. Hopefully I can get through the holidays unscathed and reach my goal for the new year.

Good luck to all!!!

Well, the weigh in today did not bring me closer to this goal. I gained just under a pound. I stayed on my diet all week but still knew I was not going to loose… I felt puffy instead of skinny. Oh well, there is always next week… 2.2 pounds to go. I am hoping to still make this goal by the end of the year.

My weigh in today revealed that I have lost another 1.8 pounds – bringing the grand total so far to 28.6. I can’t believe I have less than 2 pounds left until I reach my goal.

I think this will be a great motivator over the holidays when we all tend to overindulge.

I was not expecting a loss after the holiday – and at my weigh in today I was not surprised – I stayed the same this week… which was still an accomplishment after the holiday of pigging out. Even though I knew I would not loose, I was still a little disappointed – being 3 pounds away – I couldn’t help but daydream that I would make goal today.

I really need to get back on track with drinking water this week and get my butt in gear with some exercise.

ooof – I ate too much.

It was totally worth it – mom is a rockin cook. One day can’t undo my progress – I just need to be back on track tomorrow.

I can’t believe it but I lost this week after a crazy weekend of eating out. I am down another 0.8 lbs for a total of 27 lost since June 12th. Now the next challenge will be to maintain my loss through Thanksgiving.

I have to stop eating out so much. I do great at home and at work but I tend to go out to eat a lot.

Yesterday I went Thai lunch with my mom and then sushi dinner with husband and sisters. Then today for lunch we all went out for Indian (my weakness) for lunch. I really can’t make responsible choices at an Indian buffet.

Each week like this I just hope to maintain my losses.

I had a great loss last week and stayed on plan this week but ate out a lot. While I watched what I ate when I went out, it is so hard to truly know the calorie/fat in restaurant food. I managed to escape the week unscathed, down 0.2 lbs… which I would consider maintaining… and a success (all things considered).

I plan on being strict this week – limit eating out and hopefully post a loss next Tuesday. But then… around the corner is Thanksgiving.

Only 3.8 pounds until I hit my goal!

I just had my Weight Watchers weigh in and I lost 3.2 pounds this week. I can’t believe it. Plus, 3 people commented to me so far this week on how much I have lost – one even called me an ‘inspiration’. Wow!

I am only 4 pounds away from my goal.
