Well....I've always been a yo-yo dieter. I've worked hard to keep the last 10 pounds off...refusing to get over a "certain number" again...but of course I need to lose more. So.....why not use this wedding as a way to set and accomplish some goals! We have a year and 5 months (ish)...why not??
I've tried Weight Watchers, but it's too complicated for me to stick with. I'm heading back to myfitnesspal.com which is a simple calorie tracker. I figure all this goes with the blog and sharing this part of my story will help me maintain more accountability as well! Soooooo....here we go! Today is day #1 of Week #1. Wish me luck!
10-17-11: Wow...I actually worked out today...yep, and won't be able to move tomorrow. But hopefully I'll sleep better!
10-18-11: Yeah! Worked out again! :-)
10-20-11: Four days in a row! 14 days = a habit....we'll see!!!
10-30-11: Well, I did great week one! Lost over 3 lbs....and then came week two...lol! Oh well, can't live in the past....back to it! :-) 9 months to go!
11-17-11: Okay....so the week from hell at work is over....again. Lol! I'm still down those three pounds from October, but that's about it. HOWEVER, I purchased some serious motivation on Monday....yep....got "the dress!" So excited and that's all I can say or Jason will kill me!
11-20-11: yeah! We both made it to the gym today! It felt great to run and lift weights... Fun times! Running in the schools Turkey Trot tomorrow!
Wait! You've set a date?? I do I not know this? WHY do I not know this?! So March 2013? Oh and good luck with the diet. I will do my best to keep you on track.
ReplyDeleteLori, if you set your mind to it, you'll accomplish your goal. I'm confident! Last week, I went to aerobics & while I was exercising, my hip started hurting so much that I decided I was going home. As I walked to the back of the room, I looked at one of the ladies who is skinny as a rail with a hat on her head. She just started back after completing chemo. I marched right back up to my spot and said, "If she can do it, so can I." So, the point of my story, is no matter what our condition, we can do it, if we put our mind to it.
