lose 5 more pounds

I dropped a pound this month, but back up to 129 this week. We’ll see where I’m at next month??

129 lbs this morning – well, really was careful what I ate over the weekend. Skipped going out for Sunday breakfast. Did not to any workouts but ran around all weekend with household chores, yard work, etc.

130lbs today, ideal weight 125. Absolutely no fast food, continue working out/walking daily. Weight seems to be at a stand still. Will even cut down on diet sodas – drink more water or tea. Goal date, September 1st.

my goal weight is 120. i was about 125 at the time i made this a goal, and i’m currently at 123. of course, my friend told me that ideally i should be at 115 for the duathlon on July 27. if i can get under 120, that would be splendid. obviously, i wouldn’t starve myself, but just keep working out and eat healthier (this is a sticking point for me … i LOVE to eat, and i LOVE to drink, even if i don’t do it often). but i do need to curb my urge to eat out. so, gotta keep workin’ at it.

I’m getting closer and closer to my weight loss goal. Last night I weighed in at WeightWatchers and found that I had lost another .4 pounds. That is almost 6 and one half ounces. It’s like a stick and a half of butter, a hockey puck, almost a half loaf of bread. I can do this. It’s less than a pound now to my 10% point.
Soon I will be noting on 43 things how I reached my goal weight!

Well, the long story is that I was overweight 7 months ago and decided to do something about it. I went to Weight Watchers. I weighed in that first night at 144.5. I’m happy to say I’m now down to 132. My most immediate goal is to lose 1 more pound so that I will be at my 10% loss. Then my second goal is to “see the 2 in digit 2” – meaning 129. My goal weight is actually 128 but seeing that 2 will mean so much, even if the last pound takes a bit. I’ve been taking weight off the way I put it on which is slowly in small amounts. But I have made some important lifestyle changes and that makes me feel very, very good. The next thing to work on is moving (a euphimism for exercising) more and eating more fruits and veggies… but I’m doing so much better than I was. I no longer chomp on chocolate like there’s no tomorrow or pound down potato chips as if I still had the metabolism of my fourteen year old self.

June~ I will lose 5 pounds this month!!!!
Increase my aerobics to 1hr daily ~ 700 calories

So far 11 lbs down, now 5 more till the mini goal…
Does everyone reward themselves when they reach a goal? What do you reward yourself with?? Good luck everyone!!!

I can’t believe that I weigh the least I’ve weighed since junior year in high school, five years ago. I worked out very hard after the holidays to lose that 5 extra pounds. Now, I just have to get really toned for my upcoming cruise. :)

Now I can stop weighing myself every other day and get back to a normal routine. I think from now on my fitness will be measured by how I feel, look, fit into clothes. I may even go back to the tape measure. It’s still a concrete measurement but for some reason I don’t obsess over it like I do the scale.

It’s good to have the weight off, but not good to have stupid goals that make you crazy.
