Morning Naked Weigh In - Week 12

This morning I weighed in at 254.4lbs.

That is a 3.6 lb loss for the week. 

This week also marks the end of a month,

bringing my total MONTHLY loss to: 8.8lbs.

My TOTAL LOSS so far is: 

45.4 Pounds!

This week I worked out at the gym 

several days and did some weights.

I started my period night before last,

so wasn't expecting much of a loss

for the week, because typically

TOM brings water weight gain,

so I'm very HAPPY to see a nice loss

this week!! 

New Gym Found

Yesterday I joined a new gym.

This one is Local, Open 24 hours,

and is CHEAPER than what I'm paying

now for the gym through Work, which

has limited hours, and that I've been 

having trouble getting to. 

I joined the new gym yesterday, 

and will cancel my other gym membership 

tomorrow.

NO MORE EXCUSES!!

THIS WILL BE THE YEAR 

I FINALLY ACHIEVE MY 

GOALS OF WEIGHT LOSS

AND FITNESS!!

Feeling Super Positive today!

Prayers Accepted ;)

Hi Ho, Hi Ho, It's Off To The DMV We Go!

 Tonight, I spent a little over 2 hours

with my 17yr old, while she practiced

driving and parallel parking.  She takes

her Drivers Test in the Morning.

OH I HOPE SHE PASSES!!

Yet, at the same time, the thought of

her driving scares me to death. 

Even now, every wreck I hear about, 

and any ambulance I see, I have to 

text her to see where she is and make sure

she is ok, SO AFRAID it is one of her 

friends and she's in the car with them.

These are some SCARY YEARS for parenting!!

I have a 19yr old, so have been through this

once already..... it hasn't gotten any easier.

I think the older the kids get, the harder it is.

 

Regardless of my fears.....

 

GOOD LUCK BABY GIRL!!!

 

I'll be on pins and needles at the DMV until 

y'all arrive back safe and sound, with a PASSING grade.

 

 

Do You Tweet?

 Do you Tweet? If so, you might find 

this interesting. I was looking to change 

the background on my Twitter page this 

past weekend, and came across a pretty

 neat website that has free twitter 

background and cover images.

The Site is called TWITRCOVERS.

Click HERE to check out their site.

I am not affiliated with this site

in any way. I did a google search and

came across them. just thought I would share.

Enjoy :)

Morning Naked Weigh In - Week 10

This was a disappointing week.

Monday after my official Weigh In

the scale was up to 262.0.  Tuesday

it was back down to 261.0,

Wednesday it was 261.2, Thursday 261.2, 

Friday it jumped to 262.4, remained there 

Saturday, and this morning it was 261.4. 

So I walk away this week with a .2lb gain.

UGH.

I thought for sure I would see better results

this week.  I took healthy protein rich lunches, 

I didn't snack in between meals, and I did 

better about getting my water intake in. 

Still not enough, but better than I had been doing.  

AND I got in a short workout on Thursday, 

and my husband and I walked our butts

off yesterday... I was even sore this morning from

it.  I know this is to be expected sometimes, but

it is still a little frustrating.

New Life. New Habits. New Self.

I Finally Made It To The Gym!!

I finally made it to the gym today

and worked out.

 I only lasted about 25 minutes, but I 

worked up a pretty good sweat. 

15 minutes on the Treadmill, then

10 minutes on the bike.  While on the 

bike I used a feature called Chest Press

where every few minutes, it has you 

you raise your feet onto these posts

and then use the arm handles to pull your 

arms back and forth while it applies pressure 

making it hard to pull.

 

I need to work up to to the point where I am

working out at least an hour, and I need to be

sure and utilize the weights they have there.

I can only hit the gym about 3 times a week,

so I think on those days I will start using the 

weights they have there, and on the days

I am not able to go to the gym, I will go

to the school track walk/run. 

Looking forward to getting FIT! 

5 Non Scale Victories So Far...

I'm finding it's the little things that occur

throughout a day that most would not think 

twice about, that really allow me to "see" that 

I have lost weight.

I don't see it in the mirror yet.

I know some changes have occurred, but

I get overwhelmed with the enormity of what 

I still have to lose, because in the mirror....

I'm still VERY OBESE. 

Here is a small list of the "Little Things" that 

have been an A-HA moment for me. 

5 Small Non Scale Victories....

1.  Yesterday at work I Had 3 people tell me 

it was time for new jeans. They said the 

ones I was wearing looked like they were about

to fall off me. 

2.  I don't have to put my car seat as far back 

in my car to keep my stomach from touching

the steering wheel anymore. 

3.  I was able to bend down and tie my own shoes 

the other day.  In public.  Without performing great feats 

of acrobatics.

4.  It is much easier to get my socks and shoes on.

5.  When I'm standing and look down,  It doesn't look 

like I have two rows of breasts anymore.
