Sorry it's been awhile

So, life has been busy, hectic, and sad. Because of this, I haven't given an update in awhile.

I weighed in yesterday, and I was at 235.5! I was already super excited about that, and then when I weighed myself today, I was at 233.5!! I have been working out with the More Wii Active, and there is a fast step aerobic session that is awesome! I normally burn well over 400 calories each time I complete it. I earn 6 activity points every time, too!

So, tonight I am having chinese food with my parents. Saturday, we are celebrating Josh's birthday, so I'm sure that I won't be all that good about eating. I better make sure I work out a lot this week, so I can keep within my points!

My totals so far are:

from my heaviest: I've lost 42.2 pounds / 15.4% or my body weight
from the time I started WW: I've lost 24.5 pounds / 9.5% of my body weight

This was going to be a sad face post, but...

So, I wasn't very good this past week. I only wored out twice, I think, and this past weekend, I didn't eat all that well. So, when I weighed myself on Monday, and I had gained a pound, I wasn't all that surprised.

Flash forward to today: I needed to work out, and I needed to weigh myself. I get on the scale expecting to be about the same, but instead, I was down to 238 1/2! Woot!! That means that I am almost to 20 pounds gone!

It feels good. I am proud of myself, and I know that I will continue on.

It's actually working!

So, I weighed in yesterday and I was slightly under 240! That means that I have lost 18 pounds since starting WW and 36 pounds total!!!

I am doing this. I will do this. I can do this!

WEEEEEEEEEEEE

So, I didn't think that today's weight in would be good. I didn't really count points from Firday evening until Sunday. I watched what I ate, but I wasn't all that careful. I had a few drinks.

Well, I was wrong. I am down to 241.5. That's a total of 34.5 pounds from my heaviest and 16.5 pounds since I started Weight Watchers. My next goal is to get under 240. I haven't been under 240 since before I got pregnant with Sophia, and that was about 5 years ago.

Woot! First Milestone!

When I weighed in this morning, I was at 243.5 lbs. This means that I have lost a 5% of my body weight since I started weight watchers. It also means that I am now down a total of 32.5 lbs from my heaviest weight. My first doctor's appointment when I was pregnat with Andrew, I weighed 276 pounds. Holy Shit, that's almost 300 pounds!

So, here I am. I weight 243 1/2 pounds. I am so damned determined to get under 200 pounds, and I will.

Another Week

So, I really didn't expect to lose anything this week. We went out this weekend, and there was much alcohol consumed. Also, I didn't really count my points on Saturday or Sunday. I was still conscious of what went into my mouth, but I wasn't as diligent as I usually am.

Well, apparently I still did a good job. I lost another pound this week. That puts me at 12 pounds since I started back with the workout and Weight Watchers. This is going to be a slow journey, but one that will be worth it in the end. I am already feeling better about myself and I can tell that my clothes are fitting me differently. It's a pretty good feeling!

Monday's Weigh-in

Let's see... I was a little disappointed because I only lost 1/2 a pound this week. You would think that with doing Weight Watchers and working out that it would be more, but alas, a woman's body is a strange, strange creature.

As of Monday, I completed the 30 Day Challenge on the Wii Active. I am really proud of myself for it, too. I have been contemplating on what to do next. I can either start up the 30 Day Challenge again in the same intensity or the higher intensity, or I can just make my own work-outs. I think for today, I will create my own workout, and then we will see from there.

I am currently down 11 pounds since I started back up on the weight-loss thing, and I am down 28 pounds from my highest non-pregnant (or pregnant for that matter) weight. It's going to be a slow process, but one that I am determined to do. When I lose 2 more pounds, I will have lost 5% of what I weighed when I started WW. That's my first goal.
