Feeling better

First of all, good job Mel, I'm sure you'll be there in no time!

I am feeling much better about life in general. I haven't weighed since the beginning of January, and thankfully I had only gained 3 of the 5 pounds I had lost the week before Christmas, so it wasn't so bad.....

Until this weekend I have done much better about eating good foods, and eating smaller portions. I like when I can see/feel the difference in my body, numbers mean very little when you still feel fat. But when I can look in the mirror and think that my butt looks smaller it is very encouraging! Today I wore a skirt that I haven't been able to fit in since before I had Carson...............YIPPEE!!! It was exhillerating!

Now, if I can only continue to feel good, the rest will be easy, right?

So close I can feel it~!

152 lbs.

2 lbs to goal!

It's killing me......KILLING ME!

9 1/2 months postpartum....KILLING ME!

How did everyone do over the holidays? I haven't weighed myself yet and I'd rather do it in the morning ya know!? So I'll get back to you on my results.

I'm doing bad. Need inspiration. Now!

Weekly weigh in!

153.6 lbs.

Down another pound this week. Yipee!

I still am not working out regularly....it's been a pretty bad week for that....BUT I HAVE been pretty good about my eating. So...I'm sure things will go up when I do start working out regularly (replacing all this flab with muscle again) but for today I am glad to FINALLY be back at my pre-pregnancy weight!

YEAY!

3 more lbs to go to reach my ultimate goal.

1 step forward 2 steps back

The beginning of November, I hit 5% weight loss, which was super sweet! I thought I was on a roll, and then the yo-yo-ing began.....GRRR!

I've lost and gained the same 2.5 pounds for the last 4 weeks, and though I lost 1.2 tonight, stepping on the scale I felt like it was a crap shoot whether I had lost anything at all. I was super excited about losing a pound, but worried about next week because I've felt so crappy and fat all week. I think when I feel better about myself, I make better choices, and in turn lose more weight, so why of why do I sabotage myself...............................

154.8 lbs!

That's down 2 lbs in a week.

Funny thing...I haven't been exercising (which I am going to remedy here in a few minutes)....and have only been eating so/so.

I think mostly the loss has been because my muscles are deteriorating so I am preparing to put it back on now that I am getting back on track.

I hope not, though.

1.6 lbs away from pre-pregnancy weight and 4.6lbs away from goal weight.

So close I can smell it. :)

Grateful....

I'm just grateful to have stayed the same weight over the past two weeks.

I cant even tell you how many times I ate out....to many to count, BUT...I thoroughly enjoyed my weekend with my mom and sisters at Time Out For Women (the weekend BEFORE thanksgiving) so I guess all the restaurant food was worth it.

156 and going strong.

I may even try to work out tomorrow. :)

By the way Chari....I need your address again. I still gotta pay up. :)

Holidays

Yeah Holidays suck in the eating department. I was gone for a week and ate so much food. When I got on the scale this morning I was expecting the VERY WORST. However I lost 4 lbs somehow. I am at 131.
SWEET!

We need to do some kind of holiday challenge or something. Think of some ideas and we'll throw them around. I was thinking that we need have a goal to lose 1-2 lbs. between Dec. 1 and Jan. 1...or along those lines. Tell me what you think.

Hi

Hi all, so I started weight watchers in August and have been working at it for a while, and have lost 13.8 pounds since I started. I now weigh 233, and it is my goal to be under 200 before I would like to have another baby, which would be in the next 8-12 months I'm thinking.

I've been trying really hard to make better choices about what I'm eating, and it's mostly working, but I struggle with always wanting to have an "exception."

Anyway, you are all awesome women, so now I have one more place to be accountable.

Cheers!
