Down to 197! That is a total of 33 pounds baby!
I am dissappointed that the weight is not falling off faster. Lately it is down to one pound a week. I was hoping I had hit a plateau, but it just may be that the weight will come off slower as I hit my target weight. Also... I may be cheating just enough to keep me to one pound a week.
I did get to the gym three days this week and did Taebo on Saturday and Sunday. I should be able to get in the gym four days this week. Also, I am thinking of upping my time on the treadmill from 30 minutes to 45 minutes. I won't go quite as fast at first, but I will see if that burns a few more calories. For a day it is not much time, but if I get in 4 days then that is a total of 1 extra hour of cardio per week.
My mom made my Achille's Heal this week... Peanut Butter Fudge! Yikes! I can not seem to resist it. I can turn down anything else but my Mom's fudge. I'm trying to push it off on the neighbors b/c I had 3 pieces this morning after weighing in!
I also had a little bit of Trick or Treat candy. I tried to stick to the low-fat stuff like Skittles, but I consumed more sugar then I am used to. Anyway, I'm going to try and eat alot more fruits and vegetables this week and lighten up a bit on the starch and red meat.
If I lose a pound a week... I am ok with that. It will take me longer to get to my goal, but I'm just enjoying the 33 I've already lost!
