Weight Loss Journey- Week, who knows? I think 9!

Okay, I know, obviously if I don't hold myself accountable who else will? The answer would be my Smart Fun Gorgeous cousin Tonya. We're going to see Wicked this Summer at the PAC, and whoever loses the most is buying the tickets. I did go and weigh-in today, I mean come on I am paying $39.95 per month to do this Weight Watchers thing despite us being UNEMPLOYED, so I better get serious. No really, due to illness of kids and parents, my girls and I have not been able to workout but maybe 1x/week, but we WILL be back on track next week. This weeks results, I lost 1.2lbs. Total weight loss, 6.8lbs. Good thing I only worked out 1x this week and I ate that Braum's Cheeseburger yesterday, or I would have gained! LOL! :)

Weight Loss Journey- Week 7

I am living proof that you can eat 8 white cupcakes w/ pink icing, not work out, not track my points, and lose .6lbs! Yeah, I don't think that long term that is going to be possible, just think......if I would have worked out and not eaten those cupcakes, I might have lost more weight, but like the Weight Watcher supporter told me, I am back on track and, I did track my points today! New beginning point for me total weight loss so far (to bad I'm only 8hrs into it)......5.6lbs!

Weight Loss Journey- Week 6

Let's see, all of "The Girl's" kiddos are sick, I have not worked out this week, it's Valentine's Day-lots going on parties, bb games, etc. I did not make it to weigh-in! At least I'm honest!

Weight Loss Journey- Week 5

Aaaargh.......I worked out this week, and gained .6lbs- What is up w/ that?

Weight Loss Journey- Week 4 continued......

Below is the award I got from weight watchers, it hangs on my fridge w/ the picture of what I looked like 4 years ago when Jason and I started dating- that's what I want to look like AGAIN!

Weight Loss Journey: Week 4

So, I found a new diet secret for me this week. Don't work out and I will lose weight. Yeah, right;)! I wasn't able to work out last week, due to Kaybrie being sick and the bad weather. Anyway, I'm down 2 more lbs, for a total weight loss of 5.6lbs. I'll get back in the swing of things next week with exercise, I promise!

Weight Loss Journey- Week 3

I am about to give up! I watch the "Biggest Loser", and get all pumped up , they lose in double digits, why can't I? I did go in the right direction with another loss, but I agree with Glenna at The Treadway Treehouse, what is .2lbs? My total is now 3.6lbs lost. At this rate, Mexico will probably be the 51st State before I get there!

And now for a great story. Last night while at a birthday party, I had a piece of cake and 1/2 C of Lite Braum's vanilla ice cream, and what does my son ask in front of everyone? "Mom, is that on Weight Watchers?", I smile and say, "Yes, Braden, thank you for watching, and yes, I will count my points!" Everyone rolled w/ laughter!

Weight Loss Journey: Week 2

Week 2: I did very well. I worked out 4 days this week. Did not eat my activity or 35 allowance points. I weighed in today and I lost 2.6lbs. That is a total weight loss in this Journey of 3.4lbs! I have been told that the slower you lose, the better, but I really want a 5lb week!

Weight Loss Journey: Week 1

Weigh in Day, Week 1: Lost .8lbs. Well, that is almost 1 lb! I honestly did very well this week. I tracked each day. I never ate over my point allowance for the day, and I worked out 4 days this week! So, why did I not lose more? I guess the point is...I lost and did not gain!

New Year. New Me? We'll See!

I certainly hope and pray so. I work out a minimum of two times per week. Walking, core excercises, gab time w/ girlfriends, and yes, usually 2x per week we go to lunch...and forget about Subway, its Mazzios, Chili's, CiCi's or El Chico. Since May I have gained 20lbs, yes, I stopped breastfeeding, did a Bahama Cruise, have changed birth control 3x, upped my Zoloft to 150mg/day, been on two steroid packs, and I definitely have had no stress in the husband "job" area ;)! Excuses, Excuses...I just like to EAT!

Well, yesterday I did something about it: I joined Weight Watchers for the 3rd time in my adult life. 1st time, I lost really well and then got kicked out because I got pregnant. Gained 40lbs w/ Kaybrie and for some reason she only weight 7lbs 8oz of that weight. 2nd time, I joined when Kaybrie was 6 weeks old, that was a failure. I couldn't eat all of my points. Yeah, Yeah, when you are breast feeding you are supposed to eat 10 more points than a non-breastfeeder, and all I did was maintain. That is no fun. So, now my 3rd time, and I weigh more than ever before. I want to lose 39lbs. Yep, 39lbs. I am 5'9" and yes, I carry my weight well, but I really want to be down to 160lbs, healthy is 169lbs. So, I am going to post each week how I am doing. I am going to be honest with my readers when I lose and when I gain. Don't be surprised if its short and sweet. I am going to reward myself as I lose, and they are gonna be some good rewards. Now, please be supportive, don't use your math skills to figure out my weight, please just cheer me on!
