Even though, it wasn't as much as I had hoped to lose. I still lost weight. My husband thought I was disappointed when I got off the scale. But he completely misunderstood my expression. It is so weird. People all my life have gotten mixed messages from my facial expressions. I don't like that about myself, but it is, what it is. We discussed it and cleared the air, which made me happy. He may have been a bit frustrated about it. But I prefer to clear the air. Now, the weigh-in. I think there may have been a day or two where I may have left things out. So I would blame myself. Even so, I still feel it is a WIN because I am still losing weight, even though it wasn't as much as I would like. I try to average 2 per week, this week was only 1.3 lbs, which is okay. I went from 296.0 to 294.7 lbs. I can't wait to get out of the 290s. Now the Continue Reading
Weigh-in #11 – I’m Really Proud of Myself!
I was very happy when I stepped on the scale this morning. I didn't have any coffee or breakfast yet, I never do when I am going to weigh in. I put on my catpuccino socks and grabbed the scale, got my phone ready, and stepped on the scale. I weighed in at 296.0 lbs, which is a 2.3 lbs loss, yay! Very happy with those results. I was just talking with my husband while folding some laundry. About the time I started walking on the treadmill. It was in December 2014, I believe I was at a weight of 265.3 lbs. At that point, I had already been losing weight by counting calories. We think I could start walking on the treadmill again at about 280 lbs. I don't want to get on the treadmill again too heavy as I don't want to be at fault for breaking it hehe. When I started counting calories again this time around. I tried walking on the Continue Reading
Weigh-in #10 – Still Going Good, So Happy!
Alright, so I can't seem to keep a schedule. There are so many distractions, it just makes it impossible *sigh*. I'm sorry, not that anyone reads this, but if you do, I apologize. Tomorrow I weigh in again, but today I will give you my results. There we go, I finally hit below 300 lbs, wow, finally. I am officially in the 200s lol. I hope and I am praying I am below that tomorrow when I weigh in. I lost 1.7 lbs, it is not the 2 lbs I would like, but I am not going to complain, it is better than not losing anything, and way better than gaining. Slow and steady wins the race, right? Have I said that before? If I have it is worth saying it again. I am keeping up with logging my food. Although I have to admit that there have been times, I may have forgotten something, and when that happens, at least I know I have at the very Continue Reading
Weigh-in #9 – Better Than Nothing
Per my last post, if you didn't read it. I did backdate it, to stay on track. Today's weigh-in is on schedule, although I am pushing it by posting this on Thursday, as my weigh-in will be on Sunday, but better than being even further behind. Today we had a sweet Italian sausage as part of dinner, that baby is a whopping 290 calories, but it did taste good, and we needed to eat it. Who likes food to go to waste? I don't. And no that is not the reason I am overweight. I didn't watch what I ate, and it just got out of hand. All that doesn't even matter at this point. The point is, I am doing something about it. I lost 1.5 lbs, still a good number to lose considering my calorie intake. I hope the Italian sausage doesn't mess me up on Sunday lol. There will be days, and there have been days. It is not always going to be perfect, but all I Continue Reading
Weigh-in #7 – Not What I Wanted
My results are not what I wanted or hoped, but I will take them. As I have said before. It is better to lose a little or nothing than to gain weight. It is Friday, I have been so busy this week. I have not had enough time to stop what I am doing, and come to post the update, so here I am doing it. As my title states, this past week, well wasn't the best, and with that. Now I worry about the next weigh-in. I hope to not have gained or lost anything than to have gained. Even if I do, that is okay. I just have to change certain things. And that is how it continues to go week by week. I have tried to keep up with logging my food. When I go back to look something up. I noticed I missed something or entered it wrong. That turns out messing me up for the week. This may be that week. As far as last week, I tried to stay on top of things, Continue Reading
