The Last Weigh-in of 2012

(12.23) - 177.6

A New Low

Super excited to wake up and weigh in this morning. I have been doing great recently, so I knew it would be good. I need to get my scale a new battery. It keeps reading 'lo' but if you jump on at the right time it will tell you your weight and then switch to reading 'lo' again. I did this 3 times this morning to check that the reading was right. I am down to 178.8!! YAY!

Off the Wagon and Back On

The past couple weeks have been a whirl-wind. I was offered and accepted a new job and then flew across the country to NY to find an apartment for my big move in Jan. I have managed to gain only about 2lbs. I am going to get back on track so that I can look great for the holidays. My next goal will be for Jan 2nd - the day of my big move. With 3.5 weeks, hoping to lose 1.6 each week, my goal will be to lose 5.6 lbs. Any more would be a bonus. That would put me at 177.4.

Turkey Challenge Week 2

Did great during week 1! Now only 2.4 to go to meet goal. Let's see how low I can get! Just gotta keep on rockin' it!

I've had a crazy week of job interviews, so I haven't been weighing in consistently... Time to get back on track.

20.6 lbs in 10 weeks

I am super happy about how much weight I have lost in the last 10 weeks, but I may be even more excited about having stayed consistently on my diet for 10 weeks. Every dieter knows that it is easy to start, but more challenging to stick with it. I feel that at this point it has become a habit and even possibly the start of a lifestyle change. I tried on some new suits yesterday (I have a bunch of job interviews) and I was very happy with the body that I am beginning to see in the mirror. I also weight in each morning in just a bra and undies. I'm starting to not fear the mirror. I even saw a picture taken of me a couple days ago that I don't hate. Normally, I only like ones that are beauty shots, but this is a full body pic. I couldn't be more excited about how far I have come and the prospects of how far I can go.

I guess it is time to start a new challenge and set a new goal. Thanksgiving is 3 weeks from tomorrow. I want  to be in the 170's buy then, so my goal is 179.8 on Thanksgiving day for a total of 6 lbs in 3 weeks. My average weekly loss isn't that high, so I will have to step up my game to reach this goal. I will be happy if I get anywhere close.
