WOO HOO!!!! It is the last day of the cleanse! I DID IT! I made it through it! The scale said that I have lost 11 pounds! YAY! I am going to buy a dress tomorrow and I am so glad that the weight is back off! I am excited to see what the final loss is at WI tomorrow! YIPPEE!!!

the cleanse is working… the pounds are dropping…!!!! I am feeling great! The scale is down 10 pounds already! I have 3 days left of the cleanse so I am expecting the total weight that I gained to be gone!

On to day 2!

I survived day 1 of the cleanse! YAY!!! When I got on the scale this morning it had already dropped 5 pounds from yesterday! CRAZY! I am so glad though! YIPPEEE!!!! Hopefully by the end of the 9 day program I will be back down! I was surprisingly not hungry at all yesterday! It was pretty easy to stick to the diet. I drank a ton of water along with the cleanse and went for a 3 mile jog/walk last night. I have been having problems with my foot lately when I run so I have to take it a little easy… works out well since I am a little more out of shape! LOL! Here’s to day 2 and losing!

Happily… GAINING!!!!

Hello everyone!!! So… I happily maintained for a while… and now I am happily gaining! LOTS! So… I am back! RRRRR….I really am mad at myself for letting this happen! I have had some happy changes going on in life so I have not had as much time for hitting the gym… as far as eating right…. hah! not happening! it’s more like eating WAY WRONG! Let’s just say that I completely fell overboard with a 2 ton weight strapped to my leg that drug me to rock bottom! it’s been BAD! But the good news…. I AM HAPPY!!!! SOOO HAPPY! Other then the weight struggle life is really good… i think that is part of the weight gain… so I will take it and deal with it! Time to lose a little though! For those that have followed my weight loss journey, you may recall the 9 day cleanse that I did last year that really worked for me… I have decided to jump start my loss by doing the cleanse first and then hitting WWers… so today is day 1 of the cleanse… which means that I don’t get to eat ANYTHING! I am afraid that this is going to be tough b/c my poor body is use to eating EVERYTHING lately! lol! I am determined though, and once that happens… I do it! So I know that I will be able to stick to it! All of my pants are too tight to wear and I don’t feel good in ANYTHING! I have gotta do something… so this is it! Wish me luck! I think I am going to need a little support!

Happily Maintaining!

I have maintained from 156-161 since August 17!!! That is a 6 months!!! HOLY COW!!! I guess I could get down on myself that I have not lost any weight since then, but I am quite the opposite. Even though I can not seem to get the motivation to lose any more weight, I am happy that I have been able to keep the weight off that I have lost! I would like to get the last 15-20 pounds off, and know that eventually I will, but I have found a confidence and peace with my self the last few months, and the weight has become not as much of a priority. I am beautiful the way that I am!!! Regardless of what size my pants are! Don’t get me wrong… there are still days that I struggle, but I am beginning to love “me” and it is a wonderful feeling! I hope that I can teach my boys to have self confidence and a love for themselves as well! So for now… I am going to be happy with the new “lifestyle” that I learned from WWers, the “new me” and I am content with maintaining! Thank you so much to everyone here and there support! I will still be lingering, but probably won’t be posting a whole lot!

Staying Steady…

I had WI on Friday … 156.6 …. I was glad to see that I had maintained my loss. I only made it to the gym one time last week, so by the time I got there I had tons of energy and ran 5 miles! It felt GREAT! I over-did it at the Superbowl party yesterday so I am sure that I have some work to do this week!

MIA!

Sorry I have been MIA lately… not much new to report… still hanging around in the 150’s, working out everyday, and watching what I eat… not counting though. It’s working for now so I am going with it! I have been crazy busy lately but having a FUN time! The single mom think keeps me plenty busy! Hope everyone is doing well. I plan on having WI on Friday so I will let you all know how it goes! ttfn!

todays a new day!

I went way over on points yesterday…. I had 18 before I even thought about dinner! I had a light dinner, 4 points, but then the neighbors brought over hot fresh cinnamon rolls…. and I caved! and that’s not the worse part…. I made a crumb cake on Sunday (I know… STUPID), and couldn’t resist taking a few fork fulls last night! I did make it to the gym last night… even took along a gym buddy! but that didn’t work out so well! We were only there about 20 minutes, I was getting a great run in (impressing the gym buddy! lol!) and then the power went out and the treadmill stopped. That was that for the running! I think I only ended up running about 1.5 miles… at least it was something I guess! So today is a new day! Wednesdays my office buddy’s always get lunch together so I am going to have to eat light again for dinner tonight to make up for another high point lunch. I hope I can make it to the gym tonight, my son has a science project due tomorrow and of course we left it to the last minute so I know what I will be doing tonight! LOL! It may be late before I get there but I am going to go! Happy dieting!

I just kept running….

I was Forest Gump at the gym last night! LOL! I don’t know where it came from but I had more energy then I have had in a VERY long time! By the time I stepped off of the treadmill I had hit 5.5 miles!!!! WOW!!! I haven’t ran that far in a long time! It felt incredible! If I would have had more time I would have kept running farther! I LOVE IT! I must have had a lot of frustration to run off because I couldn’t get enough! By the time I finished I felt better then I have felt all week! Not just physically but emotionally as well! As far as my points go yesterday I kinda blew it! I didn’t keep track. I went to a friends house for dinner last night and way over did it! Hopefully my long run will help things… I am determined to be a loser this week!

The good and the bad….

my30x30 — Mon, 14 Jan 2008 13:57:32 +0000

I have good news and bad news… lets start with the good! I had WI on Friday… 156.2!!!! That is the lowest I have been since I started WWers in Feb! I am very excited! However…. now for the bad…. I had a bit of a hard weekend, ended up having a 3 am pitty party with a great friend (yes, ice cream was involved! lol! :))… and the scale is showing proof of it this morning…. but today is Monday and I am back on track and will be down some more on Friday! I am determined! I am not going to let one small setback and one hard weekend throw me off course this time… I am going to stick to hit and hit my goal that I want so bad! I am already feeling better today and know that it is going to be a great week… I may fall down every now and then, but I always get back up and become stronger!
