lose fifteen pounds

ok. i actually need to do this now that i’ve gotten my thyroid medication and my metabolism may actually work in my favor again. technically 8 lbs overweight. that’d be a start.

back to ground zero after a tough fall. Have gone to the gym the last 4 days, and been eating relatively well. I am modifying this goal to the more realistic 15 pounds.

I may be over caring. Or rather over caring enough to obsess enough to actually lose the weight. Apparently some people find me attractive how i am. Sometimes I agree. I’ve got some nice lips, eyes, and eyebrows, if nothing else, and I don’t wear bathing suits… soo. I dunno. I’ve been eating lots of fruit n veg, which feels good, I walk to school when I can, I bike n gym when there’s time, but I can’t commit myself to this with everything else going on. Whatever. 2 pounds overweight ain’t gonna kill me.

Okay. Continuing to do pretty damn well, getting up at 5:30am and hitting the gym before work, doing weights more, eating healthily, and tacking on some long walks around town and around the pond, blah blah blah. I’m down 3.5 lbs from a week ago (= -4 lbs from when I wrote the goal), so presumably some of that was water weight, but I still need to give myself credit, I’ve been really really committed. I think my real goal is to be at -10 lbs when I head back to Northampton. That’s manageable. I’m going to surpass that goal, I will!

well since losing 13 lbs, I got the plantar fasciitis, didn’t go to the gym for 6 weeks, and gained back about 9. oops. Back on track, went to the gym mon, tues, thurs, fri, sat and sun this week. I need to remind myself that I actually feel better, happier, more myself when I work out and eat well…

- 7 lbs from when I wrote the goal.

- 10 lbs from highest weight this summer
- 5 lbs from when i wrote this goal
- pants from september no longer fused to skin… exccelllent

- 5 lbs since the start of this latest attempt
-1 lb since initially adding that as a goal.
whatever

okay. at least back to where i was when i wrote the damn goal.

when i put this on my list in march i was 2.5 pounds LESS than i am now. Sigh. All in good time i suppose.
