Lose 15 lbs

Well, I need to face up to the fact that it’s not 15 but 30 lb I need to lose at this point. Blah. Going to “give up” on this one and add the bigger goal instead.

I have been on plan with diet and exercise- good! As for my progress? No idea! ..Not good! Well, I ordered batteries for my scale- finally- and I should find out by Thanksgiving if I’ve kicked a dent in these 15 lbs at all. In the meantime, though, I’m feeling great… which is a reward enough for the moment.

I’ve been on plan for the last 4 days with diet and exercise. Have been counting calories and aiming for(and achieving) a 1,200 to 1,500 daily calorie range. My exercise has included hula hooping(with a weighted hoop), jogging with my dogs, bike riding with my dogs, stability ball exercises, dumbbell exercises, using the stationary bike… I know I can do this, I just have to keep consistent!

Unfortunately the battery in my personal scale is dead, though, so I have no way to track my progress for a while.

Current weight: 145 lbs
Goal weight: 130 lbs and toned

Hoping I can do this by January. Really, I know how to do it, it’s just motivating myself to do what I need to get it done…
