RESEARCH

I checked out my bmi online... it is 32.95 obese class 1. When I started this journey my bmi was 41.1 morbidly obese. I have come along way. Just for fun I entered different weights until I can classify as "overweight" I need to lose 18lbs to get to 180lb and I will be "overweight".

To be considered "normal weight" I need to lose 48 more lbs to weigh 150lb.

So new mini goal.... by April 15th I want to be "overweight" hahaha!! 180lb here I come!

btw my body fat percentage is 32.18....

psssssssst tomorrow is weigh in!

Good evening all,

I have had a good snow day off of work. I am off tomorrow and Monday, yay!!

We are taking the boys on Sat (Dakota's 9th birthday) to Chuck e Cheese to play and to the olive garden for dinner. We will stop by toys r us on the way home for him to pick out a present for himself. The older he gets the harder it is buy for him :)

Well today I stay POP and ate just what I planned. I am saving my flex pts for the weekend so I can enjoy cake and a nice dinner with the family :)

Tomorrow is my weigh in day and I am hoping for a good loss on the scale.

Eddie picks me up now all the time and says I look fine that I don't need to lose anymore weight. He has no idea I weigh this much. He is guessing around 130, HAHAHAHA! I wish!! I tell him nope I weigh more than that and he argues with me. He weighs 190lb but is super muscular. I guess it is good he is so strong :)

I will have to shadow my weight loss plans a bit from him. He thinks I am getting too skinny. (never thought i would say that!) but I want to be in a size 8  no matter what number the scale says.... that is when I will be at goal. I am a size 12 now. 

Well off to watch tv....

January is coming!!

Good day all,

I have been busy and had a wonderful Christmas. I have maintained my weight through the holidays and next week will start back on the losing streak. I hope all of you had a wonderful holiday season.

hey all!

Hey all,

I havent been blogging lately but that is due to time constraints. I am in the maintenance mode I guess :) I lost with yesterdays weigh in. I am eating more than I should to be on plan but I am keeping a check on it and weighing in alot. I have reset my goal for December. I want to maintain my weight and in January start back on the losing streak. I have lost 50lb and if I can maintain that through the holidays, well... goal accomplished!

I am going to a friends wedding this weekend at the beach. We leave this evening. I can't wait!!!!!

I hope you all have a great day!
