Oh my word....
I hate to admit what has happened. I haven't posted on here since July, and it hasn't been pretty. 2010 was a terrible year for me. I had several illnesses throughout the year, lost my best friend to a car accident, and had surgery just to name a few. I had surgery in Oct. and from then till now, I have gained 13 pounds, and 4 inches. I know it was a blow to the system, but it doesn't make me feel any better. They told me my appetite would most likely be decreased for the first two weeks, but guess what? It was quite the opposite. I was eating everything in sight...it was like I was eating 6 times a day...NO JOKE! Then of course, there were the holidays. So now that I am past all that, and have control over my body again, I am ready to do this. Praying that 2011 will have mercy on me...and I can see great progress. My goal is still me 30th birthday, so I have 18 months left!

Been gone, now am back!
Hey all....
I haven't been on here in awhile. As of my last post, I got sunburned real bad. That was the worst experience I ever had. So swollen, couldn't move, my chest eventually started seeping, then crusted over...Yuck, yuck yuck! Then everything starting peeling, and itching...driving me wild! I quickly remembered why I hadn't been in the sun in over a decade! So now that I am all healed and feeling good...time to get back with the program. I haven't measured even once in the month of July, until today. I used todays measurements for my on-going chart I have been keeping for the year. I lost 2 pounds, and 2 inches since June..For year to date, I have lost 15.2 pounds, and 17.5 inches. Down 22 pounds for my total weight loss..since Nov 2009. :)

Ouch!!!
Good Morning!
Nothing too exciting to write about here today. I weighed in just to stay on track, and didn't loose anything this week. However, I went to the pool with some friends this past Wed. and sat in the sun for 2 hours. I wanted a little sun, because I was so white...well I ended up looking like a lobster! :( I have been so mierable for a couple days, and 3 areas of my body are swollen. I am sure that has something to do with the weigh in today..but I can't help it. I am also too sore to even measure..so will try that next week.
Have a good weekend!

Weigh In Day Excitement
Yes!!!!! This was my expression this morning as I got on the scale. Today was a special day for me. Initially, even before joining this website, I had lost 18 pounds. But then for one reason or another, I gained a few back when I hit a few rough spots in my journey. Since joining here, I managed to loose those excess pounds, and today if I had lost anything at all, I would be the lightest I have been since I was pregnant with my youngest (who is now 4). I thought, maybe even just a 1/2 a pound so I can say "this is the lightest I have been in over 4 yrs.)...I jumped up on there, only to see I lost a whole *2* pounds this week! So I can officially say, I now am the lightest I have been in over 4 years! That feels soooo good to finally say!!!! I have officially lost 22 pounds!!!

Just thought I'd say..
Today is my weekly weight in day. I was so nervous to get on the scale this morning, because this week...I was bad! I have lost count of how many Dr. Peppers I had this week. It was like once i started, I could not stop. In the past, even if I had a 20 oz, I would only drink half, and the rest would eventually be thrown away. Not this week. I sat and drank the whole bottle, 2 days in a row, not to mention the 2 I had at the restaurant, and the glass or so I had at home. It is good stuff, but not quite on the diet. Anyway, I nervously walked to the scale today, telling myself, even if it goes the wrong way today, it was all my fault. But....I lost 1 pound!!! I did keep up the exercise, even though I slipped on the diet. I guess it saved me!
Have a great weekend!

Tomorrow is a new month!
Well, tomorrow is June 1st. Seems to be one of the busiest months of the year. 8 years ago, I was getting ready to get married, and start my life with my husband. And what a rollercoaster it has been. But, today in general marks the end of one month, and beginning another. As I may have mentioned in the past, I have been keeping a table going from the beginning of 2010. I weigh and measure at the end of each month to see my progress that month, and it gives me a starting point for the new month. For the month of May, I lost 2 pounds (actually 5 total, since i gained about 3, then lost it, and 2 more), and lost 5 inches. That is awesome. But I decided we are almost half way through the year, why not see how I've done this far. I started this journey back in November 2009, but started recording it in January. So for the year to date, I have lost 13.2 pounds, and 14.5 inches! Now, if that isn't progress, I don't know what is! That's a motivator, right there!!
Happy Memorial Day!!

Down Again!
Weigh in and measurements today a plus! I jumped on the scale mid week this week and had lost a pound since last Friday...and that pound it still gone. Also last 1 1/2 inches this week. 1 inch off my chest, and 1/2 inch off my hips. Guess my dancing is paying off. In a few days I will measure for the new month...I can't wait to see how far I have come this month!
Wishing you all great success!

Smilin' Friday
I am happy to report today, that the weight loss I saw mid-week was real. Today was my actual weigh in day..and I officially lost 3 pounds, and 1/2 inch off my hips this week! Wow! I am so amazed. After seeing no change the last couple weeks, I was getting a bit discouraged. So I am glad to see a little improvement.
Have a great weekend!

Yay for weight loss...
Hello everyone...
Its been a few days since I blogged last, and it wasn't very uplifting. Today I am at my mom's house catching up on laundry since my sewer is being all dug up at home. So while I sat here playing on m brothers computer, my stomach is growling at me..and I have already eaten this morning. So I haven't weighed in since last Friday morning, and there was no change at that time. I also have lost all desire to eat, most of the time. I am not happy to report this, but it is the case. So I decided to go weigh on my parent's high tech scale..and as it reports to me, I have lost 3.2 pounds since Friday. Is it true? I sure hope so. Also want to report i went shopping this past weekend while we were out of town, bought tops and bottoms in smaller sizes!!! And not only did I get into smaller sizes officially, but my new skirt is even kinda loose! :) :)

Bummed
Its Friday again! Weighed in...NOTHING! Not that I was surprised this time. This week hasn't been very good. I only exercised 1 time this week to my workout video. Wanted to walk several times this week, but the weather decided otherwise. My calorie intake has been all over the place. From about 500-600 for the day, to 1600. And not on purpose. I feel I am getting into a slump, feeling down about alot of things, opting not to do some things I had been looking forward to, so on and so forth. And along with that, I am not hungry. So with that, I hope to have a good weekend away, starting tonight, and maybe I will feel better! I did however loose another 1/2 inch this week, and that is great!
have a good weekend!
