I am so glad that I started this blog. Right after I did my first post, I went swimming. One of my neighbors (a super cool guy) was at the pool which is rare. It's usually just my kids and I there. Anyway, we were talking about weight loss. He lost 140 lbs or so a few years ago and looks excellent. The subject of food came up and he said he wanted to order a pizza for dinner. I looooove pizza and the thought having some started the cravings. So what does pizza and this blog have in common? Being held accountable on this blog prevented me from ordering that yummy pizza. Instead, I had fish, fruit, and some veggies!
And guess what else? I weighed in this morning and I lost 1 1/2 lbs last week. Yes, this important to me because I hadn't lost any in two weeks. This small loss keeps me going.
I've decided that my goal weight is reaching 150 lbs. I weighed just under this magical number before I had my kids. I wasn't skinny but wasn't fat either. I think this is an achievable goal. Once I reach that goal, I can always reasses the goal and decided to go smaller. Honestly? I don't see myself being under 150 lbs. I'm 5'7 so I think that's a good size for me. So I have 104 lbs to lose. A lot? Yes. Impossible? Heck no.
And I have barely any clothes that fit me now and refuse to buy a large amount in this new size since I won't be staying here for long. My prize for reaching the goal weight will be a giant shopping trip for a new wardrobe! I can't wait...
So heres to another day of a healthy lifestyle!
