  • 16 pounds to goal!

    Shameless sharing.....

    I'm 16 pounds until I reach my Goal!

    Yea, me!

    I love OWL and ADBB

    It's been a heck of a ride since the end of May when I weighed in at 200 pounds and reInducted in June at 197, found myself liking C25K, and never thought I'd be just 16 pounds from my goal weight. It's an awesome feeling!

    i read this in your stats this morning!!!!!
    it won't be too long now before i'll be taking a goalie award out of storage
    you've done really well, lisa. you've kept current in your journal and i know that had to help keep you moving in the right direction.

    besides goal coming up, you're also just a couple pounds from the 170's!!!!

          Thank you, Jimmiejo, youcandoit, liv

          I can't wait to be able to carry around that goalie award .

          There's three things I think has helped me stay accountable:

          1. The journal stats has been a great thing this time around for me. It's a challenge sometimes to keep up, but it's a great way to stay accountable and keep track of things.

          2. Becoming a supporting member. That $20 was precious to my budget, but worth every penny to help me stay focused on this woe.

          3. C25K....it's been tough to stay up with. Exericse is hard. But every minute is worth it to see the pounds and inches disappear.



          I hit 179 this morning! It's now it's just 14 pounds to goal

          I'm calling that one because it's Sunday (my weigh in day).

          I'm still baffled by the amazing whoosh I was granted this week, but it makes perfect sense after reading over my journal stats (see, another great reason why to have one) and talking with my DH. We've figured out that my body's catching up with my inches that I've lost---finally.

          I've lost just over 19 inches since the beginning of June. I now know I have to give myself a little extra push with the exercise and make sure I'm drinking my water to help with the rest of the weight and skin to decrease.

          The hardest part from here on out is remembering that big whoooshes won't happen every week (or at least I'm trying hard not to think it will ).

          Thanks again for everyone's awesome support.

                      LOL....Svelte isn't really one of those descriptive adjectives that I can even remotely describe myself...lol...Maybe after I do some shopping at the end of Sept---baggy clothes aren't that svelte looking and no human alive will see me in anything less than something that covers the entire body.
