Well this weekend I was down yet another pound. God it feels sooooo good to lose at this stage of my weight loss because I feel good about myself right now so taking it slow is the best way. I even inspired my SIL to join Weight Watchers. I had not seen her for over a year and when she saw me she was amazed at how good I looked. Of course that made me feel even MORE motivated to keep going and I was glad to share my tips with her and encourage her to join because she can do it just like I did. I didn't realize how different I look but I get a lot of comments from people who knew me before I began my journey and they always mention how much better and different I look. The best part of it is the comments that come from my DH. He is so happy for me and he is amazed at how far I have come. He said he is even inspired by me ... and he has never had a weight problem in the past. He just says that he wants to start working out to look good for me. Well I had not visited this place in a while but I like the new changes and the site looks nice with the upgrades. I plan to visit more often and write down my thoughts because I know that when I look back at when I first started it just makes me feel good about how far I have came.
I have also started working out with The Firm...that is the BEST workout ever. I started back in October...haven't been consistent with it because I moved and I have a crazy schedule that I feel like if I work out I am going to pass out...I now do it here and there. I would suggest anyone to try it. This is such a great workout that is designed to tone a woman's body. I use to go to the gym and never saw this kind of result with my workouts like I did after doing 10 of The Firm workouts. I love it and will continue to use it. Ok until next time! Gotta get back to work!
So I haven't posted in a while so I thought I would check in with myself and post something. I have hit onederland finally!!! I was down to 192 but I gained 3 lbs this past week. What a bummer. I have been having the hardest time staying away from temptation. I was bad once again today. I will get back OP tomorrow because I sure don't want to mess up what I have accomplished so far. Since my last post I have started working and being at work helps me drink all of my water. I am glad for that....but only if I could stay away from temptation. Well we will see what this next week brings me...I think I might buy me a new scale and skip my WI this week. Maybe I will do that and have a fresh start next week. Well I'm off to bed but I just wanted to log in my feelings for the night. I hope to post more often...at least once a week to reflect back on my week. I think it will be nice to look back at my whole experience and be proud of myself.
Well I changed my WI day to Saturdays and today when I stepped on that scale...I was scared that it wasn't going to move. To my surprise it moved down 5 lbs. OMG!!!!!! I can't believe it, I actually made my 10%, actually I passed it and I am so happy. At the beginning of this week I had some "bad" days and I didn't think I was going to lose anything but I guess all that working out, staying OP and drinking all my water really helped. Anyways, I just wanted to share this accomplishment. Now it's time to go take a shower and dress up since I am feeling good....I know I will be having a good day today!!!!!
Well I decided to make a website so I can track my weight loss. I also wanted to do one because I know how inspiring it can be for others to view your success. Anyways this is the link if you would like to check it out : http://www.freewebs.com/latinsensationgurl
So I had a rough week and I ate out like a pig!!!! Ugggghhhhh. Anyways I did gain 1 lb so it wasn't that bad. I also decided to change my WI day to Saturdays. I think this will help me because I always tend to fall off the wagon on the weekends. I joined a challenge and it is the best thing I have done because I have a group of people who I can chat with and they keep me accountable for what I do. I love reading the WW boards...they are really great because you can get tips, secrets, motivation and just a good chat. Anyways I hope you all have a good week and 'till the next episode!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Well I had a great week. I lost 1 lb. and I feel good. I think I am getting use to this type of life and I am enjoying it. I had a great weekend, on Saturday we went to visit my sister and it was so hot.....oh boy 100 degrees. On sunday (father's day) I just chilled with my DH and DD so we had a good day, went out to eat. Of course I had to make healthy choices and I did, it felt good. I hope I continue to lose because I know how good it feels to be less heavy.
Today I went to the grocery store and there was this lady behind me in line and she was a bigger lady who was out of breath and I felt for her because I know how it feels to be like that. Anyways I am just glad that I have been able to stick to WW and make it something easy and enjoyable because this is something that I will have to do for the rest of my life. It's like having a new life. Everything has changed for me and WW is part of it. Well I hope everyone has a good week. :-))
Well today is a totally different day for me. I can't believe how I feel today after having a great WI yesterday. Well yes it's TOM uuuuuugggggggggggggghhhhhhhhhh. I hate that feeling, I am glad my WI was yesterday. Hopefully by next WI I feel better. I didn't work out today because I just feel so gross that I can't get to it. I have also been busy today because my daughter had her 4 month appointment and she got her shots so she' s been fuzzy. Wow she has grown soooooo much in so little time. She is now 14.6 lbs and 24 1/2" long. She is growing too quick....I always ask myself, where has time gone? It seems like I just had her not too long ago. Oh well I guess this is how it's suppose to be so I gotta enjoy it while I can.
So I hope to take it easy for the most part the rest of the week and try to move around because that really helped me last week. I just needed to vent today because I am not feeling to good at all. Us women go through so much ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!! LOL.
Wow I had such a great week and today's WI was great....I lost 5 lbs. I am so excited because I have never lost so much in one week...well maybe the first week but that's about it. I guess the working out really helped. I stayed OP all week and weekend and that is a first for me. I saved some of my flexies to eat dinner with my DH on Sunday so that worked out good. I started this week on a good note and began to excercise again so I can have a successful week. I feel so good about myself. It's the first time in a long time that I feel this way. I found some of my pre-preg jeans and I actually fit into them and that kept me motivated on the weekend to stay OP. Thank you for reading my posts and commenting on them because that keeps me motivated as well. Have a great week everyone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Well I knew I was going to not loose or gain. Why? Well because I ate out since Friday night. Boy I indulged on some Pizza mmmmm it was soooo good. Then on Saturday I went with my mom and sister to a buffet and ate whatever...although, I didn't eat a whole lot I still ate a little bit of everything. On Sunday my DH wanted to go out to eat so we went to Black Angus and boy it was very good and we even had dessert. I ate all that damn and I only gained one pound, well I guess I am glad I didn't gain more. So this week I have started off good by excercising and drinking a lot of water so I am hoping to lose this week. I hope I don't splurge this weekend because one day of messing up means my week is messed up.
Well today was my WI and I am down 2 more lbs. Yesssss!!! I am so glad because I was very good last week. I will look forward to next week's WI and I am getting close to my mini goal of loosing 10%. Well I had a good weekend and even though we went out of town I was very careful of what I put in my mouth. This is the first time in a long long time where I feel good about myself and even though I ate whatever I wanted I made sure I was controlling the portions. Well today I ate a lot during dinner because my DH cooked and he wanted me to eat with him. So I had some food with him and it was healthy so I feel good. I am very careful of what I buy when we go grocery shopping and both of us have made some healthier choices so I am happy for that. The less temptations that I have at home the better because if I don't have it then I can't eat it. Ok well I hope this week is successful for me and continue this loosing streak, I plan to work out this week because I didn't last week.
Well today I had a good day I stayed OP and I feel great. I am sometimes wanting things fast but I guess this weight loss is a slow process. As long as I can tell that I am losing I will be ok. I know in the long run the results will show. I am so happy that I am on my way to looking good and finally feeling good about myself. Especially after having a baby because I thought I was never going to get back to normal and things have been good to me so far. The one thing is that not having a job has depressed me a little bit. I want to go to work but I guess there are not a lot of jobs out there at the moment. I have been to so many different interviews. Nothing yet....I wonder if I am doing something wrong. Or maybe it's that there is a lot of competition and there's a lot of applicants for one position. Well I am hoping that I get a job soon because I am going to need the money. I am still getting paid family leave but it is going to end soon. Then I will be getting unemployment benefits but I don't know how long that will last. I am enjoying the time off because I get to spend it with my daughter but I miss going to work and actually having a life outside of my home. I will keep this updated on my job search. Wish me luck because I really need it. Anyways looking at the bright side I am continuing OP and I love it so I'm gonna keep on going and be positive about that.
