Weigh In Wednesday - September 10, 2014

Well, I weighed in yesterday, but forgot to update on here.  Life has been a bit crazy this week.  I am shocked that I lost any weight at all.  My younger daughter was diagnosed with croup on Monday, so we've been dealing with that and trying to keep our older daughter illness free.  

Here's my weigh in information for today.  Sorry I don't have a picture this week!


Weigh In Wednesday
Starting Weight: 198.9
Previous Weight: 182.8
Current  Weight: 181.8
Weekly Change: -1.0
Total Change: -17.1

My goal for this coming week is to see 179.9 or below!  I am a fan of the Black Dagger Brotherhood books by J. R. Ward (if you haven't tried these, I highly recommend them!) and decided to treat myself to one book for every 5 pounds lost.  I am so close to that 20 pound loss, I can taste it!  I would love to lose 2.9 pounds this week, but I'm not sure that is completely feasible.  I am back to checking in with my DietBet group every day and trying to get back on track there so I can potentially win the whole thing.  I have to lose 9.7 pounds in 22 days to win this round, so that's probably out.  I know I can do it in two months though...

I'm linking up with Heather, Ash, & Erin for Weigh in Wednesday.  Come join us!!

Weigh In Wednesday ~ September 3, 2014

I'm back after 2 weeks away.  I didn't weigh in last week because I was up again.  I just can't seem to get over this stupid hump and break into the 170s.  :(  My focus was completely off over the past two weeks.  I keep saying I am going to start working out again, but can't seem to get myself motivated to get off my ass and do something about it.  I am focusing on my meals and portion sizes again and trying to get my water in each day.  I'm linking up with Heather for this week's Weigh in Wednesday. Here's the horrible weigh in:

Weigh In Wednesday
Starting Weight: 198.9
Previous Weight: 181.2
Current  Weight: 182.8
Weekly Change: +1.6
Total Change: -16.1

I am going to go back to tracking everything online and on paper.  No more playing around.  I'm ready to break into the 170s and keep going!  I want to hit my goal weight by 12/31 and if I keep messing around, that definitely won't be happening.  I need to set up our Wii again so I can do my Just Dance workouts and try the Zumba too.  

Here are my goals for the next month:

  • Drink at least 6-8 glasses of water every day
  • Load up on fruits and veggies at every meal
  • Exercise 3-5 times a week
  • Start back on T25
  • Lose 5 pounds in September
Here goes nothing!!  I'm tired of gaining and losing the same 3 pounds.  Time to get it gone!!
