La la la la

I couldn't think of a good title for this post, because I have bad news...I didn't lose my last 6 lbs. in a week. I haven't lost anything for the past 3 weeks! It's been awful, but it's totally been all my fault! I've been enjoying regular food way too much and I've caused myself to plateau. When I went to my weigh in this week and saw that I had stayed the same, I was so embarrassed and mad. There isn't any excuse for it! For the past two days I've been doing really really good and I'm determined to get this last weight off of me so I can move on with the diet and with my life. I have also started to train to run my first 5k. I'm really excited about it and I'm hoping that it will help speed up this weight loss. I'll let you know how I do at my next weigh in.

Quick update: I have been feeling very UNmotivated ever since Christmas and New Year's. I enjoyed eating regular food again and feeling full, but not too full. So last weeks weigh in was no surprise when I had gained a pound. My chiropractor told me to hang in there and to make a goal of 10 more lbs. and then he would switch me over to phase 2. Well, that was motivaton enough for me...this morning I weighed in at 154. That's a 4 lb. loss this week and my 20 lb. loss mark! Only 6 more lbs. and I am onto phase 2 which means less of "their food" and more regular food. Hurray! I'm going to work my butt off (literally) this week and see if I can drop the last 6 lbs. in a week. I doubt it, but I can try!

I am Here!

I know, I know. It's been forever since I posted anything, but I have seriously been gone this whole time!! We went to Las Vegas, Utah, Utah again, Las Vegas again, and California. It's been nuts!! As for my diet, I did pretty good during the Holidays, but when we went to Disneyland, it went right out the window! I didn't stuff myself though and we walked everywhere, SO:

Weigh in day was today....I still lost 2 lbs.! I was happy about that. All week, every time I ate something NOT on my diet, Kyle just said "Don't cry to me when you get on the scale"...well, no tears here! I'm doing good now that we are home. I only have 14 lbs. left to lose and I'm feeling great! I can do this!!

Sweet Success

Kyle bought me a pair of size 10 pants over a year ago that I couldn't fit into, but I kept them as inspiration, hoping to get into them one day.....Today was that day!! I can't even believe that I am wearing them right now and I'm not even "stuffed" into them. They actually slid on and buttoned without any effort!!! I can now die and go to heaven happy! (well, not really because my next goal is size 8) Size 8 here I come!!!

scales

It's been a while since I have updated you on my progress. Don't worry I am still doing great. This morning I have a beef with my chiropractor's scale though. My scale says 157 (I know!! Freaking awesome!) but his said 160. Not fair! Oh well. I will go with what my scale says! I'm feeling good. Here are my accomplishments so far:
weight loss : 17 lbs. (according to my scale)
Body fat % lost: 3.1%
Inches : 7.25 combined from my hips, waist and thighs

I'm feeling good, but hungry still. It's been 6 weeks, and by next week I hope to hit the 20 lbs. mark and be fitting good into my "skinny-er" jeans. Not my skinny jeans, but skinnier that what I've been wearing.

okay

I weighed in yesterday and I only went up 2 lbs. from my Thanksgiving fiasco! Thank Heavens! What kills me is that I wasted that whole week and I still didn't even eat Thanksgiving dinner! I wasted my cheating on crap! Well, I'm back now and I'm back to work. I had a huge headache yesterday and hopefully today will be better. Cheating is just not worth it!

Thanksgiving

Well, I said it over and over and now I am saying it again... I should never have left the house for Thanksgiving!!!
