Creating the new me

 Well I got back from WI this morning and I am down 1.4 pounds this week.  I am super excited about that. It is great to know that my workouts are really helping me in regards to Weight Loss. I was able to eat relatively reasonably this week, have a few indulgences, drink a little too much wine and champagne, and still post a loss.

I am working my @ss off at the gym, and it’s showing.

I have lost a total of 41.2 pounds! 

I have a few pics I want to post.  Below is a picture from March 15th at my birthday party. I am in the middle.  The second picture is from a formal event we went to this Saturday night, March 22nd. The last one is from my birthday weekend too.

I’m not going to post them on my progress pics page yet because I want to wait until I hit the 40 lb milestone and take a picture then…I’m only .2 away!

Sorry I didn’t get a chance to post yesterday…crazy day. Well I lost .4 :)  I will definately take that, I had a huge loss last week of 3.2, so not only did I maintain during my birthday week, but I lost .4 .

I indulged quite a bit last week too, but am totally back on track now with eating and exercise. I’ve been kicking butt at the gym lately and it has been helping my weight loss efforts so much.

I didn’t get my 40 pound star yesterday though…total weight loss is 39.8, oh so close! Next week for sure! 

I am down in the 170’s though, 179.6 to be exact. I am super stoked about that, I have come a long way.

I’ve got a big weekend coming up, a few food temptations in there, but I’ll make do, use my flexies and hit the gym.

Have a great holiday weekend everyone! 

Well my 30th birthday came and went. I had such a great time, and it really was almost a week of celebrations!

Sat night we had all our friends and family over for music, food and drinks. It was so fun to see everyone. And everyone commented on how good I looked. I’ll post a pic later if I think of it! 

Sun morning DBF and I went to a hot springs and spent the night. It was so nice and relaxing.  Then Monday we had the day off work and went shopping. We both had a great time.

On the way home we found a new bedroom set, and I think we are going to purchase it. We have a waterbed now that I HATE, so this is a new set up, frame, evertything, it’s still a waterbed, but its 95% wavefree….so hopefully it’s a good compromise for the two of us….

WI is tomorrow, I hope to maintain or lose a little. I had a great WI last week (-3.2 pounds), and then ate like crap after that…I’m back on track though, and went to the gym last night. My goal is 5 nights this week. I only made it 3 last week, but have consistently been making it 5 times.

OK, enough rambling for now. I’ll be back tomorrow with WI results!  Have a great OP DAY!

Well I have been a horrible blogger lately. I have been reading tons of blogs, but not commenting and not writing on my own.

However, I have been a good loser lately.  I lost 1 lb last week and 3.2 lbs at todays WI. I think I may be over my little plateau, but I’ve worked hard damn it, I deserve it.

I am past the 50% mark, and am closer to my goal than I am to my starting weight!

I weighed in at 180.0 pounds today, so close to the 170’s.

I have lost a total of 39.4 lbs, so close to 40.

My 30th birthday is on Sunday, I am so excited, and so proud I started this journey when I did. I am so much healthier, happier, and feel better about myself than when I started.
