20.6 pounds to go, 113 days left
Yay! I'm chugging along! I feel so happy!!!! I'm 19.2 pounds down all together, and I feel fabulous. When I put my jeans on now, I don't get anxiety. They glide on with no problem! A couple of pairs are too big! I think that half of my weight loss is coming from the fact that I now work retail. When I was working at WB, I sat at a desk ALL day. Now I move ALL day. I should wear a pedometer to see how many steps I'm doing.
Anyway, today I'm taking my dog to "Bark in the Park" so there should be a lot more walking there! Fall is in full force in Northern California and I love it!!!
PS.... I'm not to happy about the new EP design.

I keep flip flopping between these .2 pounds! I need to kick it up a notch and get out of the funk. I had a cheat day the day before yesterday, and pizza was part of it. Maybe that's why my body is mad at me. Haha. I think I might do a week of Core on WW. I remember I did Core last year around this time and I absolulty adored it. I like having weekly goals to keep me on my toes. ie... the other week I gave up soda for the entire week (even though I only drink diet) and the week before that, I did an absolutly NO eating out for the entire week. When I do goals for one week at a time, I can definitly accomplish them. So yeah, I'm going to do Core this week.

Hoooorayy! Down again! Just by .6, but still. The more I lose, the more motivated I am. :) I think I'm going to hit the gym today. I haven't been in a while.
*PS. I have to confess... I haven't been keeping track of my points. Instead I just eat WAYYYYY less. I know that it could turn bad, but it's actually working for me. *Knock on wood*. As much as I like Weight Watchers, and as much as it works, sometimes it's a little overwhelming. And my only REAL problem is my portions. I rarely eat junk food. So now I'm changing my portions and it's working! :)

My birthday was fantastic!!!!! We went to Monterrey Beach and spent the day there. It was lovely. :) I didn't go overboard with anything, but I did manage to gain .2. I'm not worried about it. Hopefully it will be off by tomorrow. Here are some pictures of yesterday! :D

22.8 pounds to lose, 122 days left!
Another pound down and I'm FINALLY below my starting weight when I joined this site last year! YAY! That is a huge reliefe! I hated seeing that I was over that limit. Things are still going really strong. The last few days I've had a hard time keeping up with tracking my points. I start in the morning, but by the evening it gets put off and then I forget about it. The good thing is that I've been eating SIGNIFICANLY less. Lunches are usually a simple sandwich of whole grain bread and turkey. And dinner is usually a lean cusine. Though tonight my boyfriends parents are having a birthday dinner for me and I have no idea what is on the menu. I just plan to stick with one small serving.

All I can say is, Heck Yes!!!!!! 2.6 pounds down today.
It's weird because I was hesitant to weigh my self this morning since I had had 2 beers last night and I felt kind of guilty. So I took my dog on our morning walk and didn't weigh myself. I came home, had breakfast and lounged on the couch again. Then I thought that I better weigh myself anyways. Even though I had had breakfast and had two beers the night before... It was a promise to weigh myself evvvvvery day so that if I did slip up, I would be motivated to get back on track. I stepped on the scale, and voila!!!!! -2.6! Hoorayyy!!! Of course I'm perfectly aware that the beers may catch up to me late in the week, but still! I'm glad that I ended up weighing myself. :)

So this week I ended up losing exactly 4 pounds. Through the ups and downs, -4 was the final verdict. Totally stoked about that. I want to do just as good this week, plus better.
Last night, Taco bell and one oatmeal iced cookie found it's way into my apartment and into my belly. Ooops. Will not happen today!

Woo hoo! Making progress little by little! I've been weighing myself every day because it keeps me motivated and I tend to stay on track. I feel more accountable that way. It's also exciting to change the amount I need to lose, and the days that I have to lose it by.
My boyfriend and I did some heavy grocery shopping yesterday! We got all kinds of healthy snacks and meals. No excuses for eating out anymore!
Also, monday is my birthday. It's so sad... I'll be 23. There are no more really good birthdays to look forward to after turning 21, but oh well. I think this one will be low key. No one has mentioned any plans.

Up .4 today. I'm not worried since I'm weighing myself every day and it's bound to fluxuate like that. I'm actually kind of glad that I'm weighing myself every day because it keeps me in check. I'll think about taking that exta bite when I'm up .4 that day.

Well, today I feel fabulous. Late last night I was looking through my weight log that I've been keeping and realized that when I started WW, I was at 270. That means, as of today, I've lost 12.4 pounds. And that's been with in the time span of about a month, but really getting off track here and there. I know that if I can stay committed and motivated, I will be able to take off the 30 pound. Err... 26.6 pounds by January.
When I erased the number 30 from my mirror and wrote 26.6, it felt SO much better. Anything sounds better than 30. :)
Also, yesterday I bought a beautiful journal as a food log. I thought that maybe if I splurged a little bit on a pretty journal that I would be more inclined to keep track of what I'm eating.
Little by little!
Anyway, today is my day off and I'm off to the craft store to get some supplies for a project! Adios!
