Half way there!


I have (once again) hit the apex - 50% of my first goal. This is going to be a tough week (birthday, yahoo!) but I hope to make decent choices & not stray too far. I'd like to lose the rest by the end of next month, but 15 lbs in 5 weeks is probably bad :P doable, but bad :P

wheeee

-4.8 lbs down in the first week back at 'er. Most likely due to the lack of christmas goodies in the house, but I'll take the loss however I can get it. 20 lbs to go to hit goal (or 17, depending on which goal I'm looking at. 17 sounds better, so let's go with that ;))

I stopped journalling after Thursday (so three days in), but tried to keep an eye on what I was eating, and more water is helping for sure. I still love my diet coke, but I can't ONLY drink that. Bad chelle...

Birthday bootcamp

I turn 30 on March 3. I have had the goal of being 160lbs for awhile now, and have been lacking motivation. I have given myself the goal of hitting 160 by my birthday. That gives me 8 weeks. I hope I can do it! This is somewhere between 25-30lbs (depending on how WI goes on Friday).

I emailed my bootcamp instructor yesterday, because I know I'm not being as effective at home as I could be. Another friend of mine is going with me on Thursday, and we're going to see what kind of plan she can work up for us. 1 or 2 days per week at the gym, and the rest will be at home. I hope this is what I need to make the 30ish by 30 goal!

On an unrelated note, I've also resolved to drink milk with supper now. I hate milk. Srsly. I put enough milk on my cereal to dampen it. However, I want to be positively model behaviour for the kidlet, so I thought I should start now! I was very mad to find out that 1 cup of skim milk is still 2 points! WTF??

And we're back...

So i did it... I signed into WW & actually journaled my food intake today. Except for the disgusting mouthful of sickeningly-sweet tea my coworkers handed me as a joke (it had 6 sugars in it, instead of my normal 1 pkg sweetener - har forking har)...

It's going to be a slow start methinks, I'm within 10 lbs of where I started at the end of April, but it will get better. Bumpectomy is in 2 weeks & change, so hopefully by the beg. of February I'll be able to wear real runners again.

23 lbs to goal... ideally, I'd like that gone by the end of February. Doable? Sure hope so. Better get the crapfood outta my house now though!
