Weight Loss Check In W/E 2/01

[Brichard]

Down to 203! I feel like I had a really good week! I'm eating well and slowly turning up the workout effort. This week I begin running two miles 3 times a week and I'll walk twice this week.

I was hanging around 205 for a long time, so it is nice to be beneath that range even if it is just a hair. I've got my belt back to where it was before the holidays and I'm only 10 pounds away from the 193 I got to last year. I really feel like I'm going to go the distance and get back to 180 again.

Go everybody go!

:D

I had another of my wakeup calls where I was sick and tired of the weight I allowed myself to get to. Since Saturday, I have lost 3 1/2 lbs by always remaining conscious of my food choices and exercising. Only 7-10 lbs to go. I will plateau after 7, so don't know if I'll let myself suffer for the extra 3 lbs. LOL

You lost 3.5 lbs in 48 hours????????

I am the same weight as last week. I didn't eat anything bad, just larger portions. I need to watch my portions this week and make sure I eat snacks so I'm not so hungry at meal time.

Yep!! LOL You would be amazed on what I ate BEFORE. My metabolism has always been on the higher side, so when I eat really healthy and exercise 2x's a day, my metabolism kicks in fairly quickly.

I think I'm down about 1 1/2 pounds. I've been really trying to do some type of exercise every other day and drink a lot of water .

LMAO!! I knew I couldn't be alone on this one!! :D

[Amy]

That is not nice!!! ROFL!! I'm suffering here because I'm constantly making good food choices and all I want is an ice cream sandwich or a piece of carrot cake! I learned really bad habits from breastfeeding and just haven't been willing 100% to stick to something healthy. :P I have to re-create good eating habits like I had in my 20's.

Don't let them bug you, Amy!! A fast metabolism gives you something to totally love your parents for!! LOL
