  • Forty pounds... GONE!

    So ~ forty pounds down, ten more to my first mini goal. Now as of March i HAD lost 50 pounds, but went carb crazy and gained several back. Now i am back on track, and back down to 40 total. Once i get to 50 i am posting pictures! I think that will keep me motivated... because that is some serious accountability, now isn't it?!

    Enjoy the day!

                      DRAGON' - just read about your 40 lb. lost! What a fantastic accomplishment. Sometimes the weight loss just seems like a number after a while. When I was living the atkins lifestyle the first time, after every 10 lb. weight loss I would go to the grocery store and go to the sugar isle and find the 10lb. bags of sugar. Since I am a pastry adict I would lift as many 10lb. bags of sugar that added up to my weight loss and hold them all at one time. (Ex: 40lbs. lost = holding (4) 10lb. bags of sugar) This gave me a reality check as to how much weight I ACTUALLY lost. I would then think about how much sugar I ate in the past to equal that amount of weight that was on my body. It was a good way to visually see what I was doing to my body every time I ate a piece of cake! I plan on doing the same thing this time around.

                      Congratulations again on the 40 lbs.! You should hold your head high and be proud!!!

                        Thanks again, everyone! You are certainly cheering me up today!

                        Sweetaholic - that is such a cool idea... it is good to have those comparisons about how much we have lost, isn't it? I picked up a 40 pound bag of dog food (actually for my dogs) the other day and i couldn't believe how much that was! It feels great... even though i am doing it slow (took that huge break last year.)

                        Loana - i will totally be cashing in on your offer to help with picture posting! Can i PM you when i am ready???

                          hey, now you can go grab 2 sacks of 20 pounds of potatoes and run around the store carrying them...put them back when you're done of course But you'll know how it's like to have those 40 pounds off you and keep them off.
