Weigh 120 again

Almost there :-) Go me, for once. I grad in 3 months and by then I will be under 120 :D And for me that’s amazing bc I did it the healthy way!!!

and I didn’t meet my challenge to get here by this year, I am hereby swearing off sweets for the new year, whether they are actually sugar or artificial. Exceptions are as follows:

-for holidays, I will accept sugar free candy from my husband.
-when I am sick, I will eat what I can, even if it is a milkshake
-Occasionally, the balanced meal plans from yourself fitness contain sugary items (fig newtons, and a single glaze donut come to mind) I will allow myself these in the portion recomended. but I will not intentionally pick them for the sugar
- since my husband got a waffle maker for xmas, I can have the waffles with a smallish amount of syrup.

other than these things, there can be no sweets in my diet. no cokes, no chocolate, no ice cream, no cake, no sweet tea.

somewhere along the line (oh say around 5 months ago, the time of my last entry) I fell off the band wagon. I’ve put on 10 of the 20 pounds I had lost, so, while I’m still better off, I’m still a massive 50 lbs off of my goal. soooo

I am not going to meet my challenge, which means Dec. 31st will be my last chance in a long time to indulge in sugary junk. So very very sad. I love chocolate. : (

because I’m not excercising! I need to do this so much more. at least I’m not gaining weight. I was 159 on friday, which is only 1 lb off my mark, but it fluctuates up to 163… so there is work to be done!

I’m not completely sticking to it yet but I’m doing it anyway starting yesterday.

I’m over 25% there. Hopefully my progress on this is about to speed up as warm weather comes, and more sunlight.

I have pretty much lost 15 lbs at this point. I started August 1, so over 6 months, and only 15 pounds, but those months included the holidays, and I’m grateful I didn’t gain any. I am weighing in at 163 pretty regularly, just not on the days when it counts to make it official. I still have 43 pounds to go to meet this goal, and if I continue at the rate I’ve been I will be 16 miles away from this goal at the end of this year. I’m fairly confident I will be boosting my excercise during the summer, which should help to increase the rate of loss. I love to hike, but not in the cold.

I have challenged myself to complete this by new years next year. that’s less than a pound a week, very doable. Time to work extra hard on this.

lol this time I am really ready I weigh…shhh 138. That’s as much as I weighed when I was 8 months prego if that tells ya anything about that. lol So I am really ready. I been working out and eatting small protions and got rid of all the junk food in the house…and I mean all the chocolate. :( lol I need to jump start this so I can rememer how awesome it feels to lose weight! lol so here goes. For real this time!

I wanna be skinny…not fluffy like a snowman ;)

i need to loose 25 pounds to get this.
i am only 5’ 1”, so even an extra 10 would make a HUGE difference. 120 seems like a good goal to aim for, so im going to go for it.
