Quick Update

Down 3 pounds my first week. Can and will do better, as long as Riley's b-day party and Thanksgiving (within 5 days of each other) don't derail me.

Gonna be a challenging week.

Ugh.

This sounds familiar, huh:

"Got lazy. Let myself go. A lot of work to make up."

I'm pushing HARD through the end of the year, and I'm doing with true purpose, this time. Check this page out for more info, and if you can join us, please do. We need all the help we can get!

Getting Fit for the Fight

Checking in on a Sunday Morning

About to walk out the door but wanted to let people know that I'm still here, and fighting. I made some bad choices about 2 weeks ago, and I've been fighting back down since then. I weighed in this morning, and I hit a new low of 283.8.

I am now down 23.4 pounds since May 26, 3.8 pounds from by August weight loss goal, 13.2 pounds from the lowest weight I hit during my initial transformation, and a still-depressing 33.8 pounds from my final goal of 250.0.

Still need to improve in many areas (self-control, making myself work out, focus), but I'm thrilled to be where I am, noting I had temporarily hit 312 in early May.

I'll try to do better keeping up with the blogs, too. Sorry for not commenting like I should. I'll get better.

Have a great day, all.

Quick Update

Nobody blogging anymore? Come on, peeps. Get it together, and let's get out here and keep everybody updated!

As for me, I had a bad week or so. Jumped back up to 294 and change for a couple days, as we had some bad dinners, and followed them with bad snacks.

Long story short, I have worked my way back down to a new low - 285.6. Very much on pace to hit my 8.31 goal, so that's good. I'm also exactly 15 pounds from my lowest point during my first run at this a couple of years ago. Looking forward to getting into those 260's this time.

Have a great weekend, all.

Goal!

Keep it short and sweet today...NAILED my goal for July. KILLED it. It had NO CHANCE.

Today's Weight: 286.4
Yesterday's Weight: 288.2
Change: -1.8
Total Weight Lost: 20.8
Pounds to Goal C: 6.4

> I hit my goal 14 days early
> I crossed the 20-lb lost mark
> I'm now 6.4 pounds from my AUGUST 31 goal

I'd like to lose another 2.4 pounds this month, which I think I should be able to pull off. Going into August four pounds from my goal would be a nice feeling.

Everybody have a great weekend!

Don't Panic, it's Just a Plateau

My last five weigh-ins:

288.2
288.2
289.8
288.0
288.2

My body likes 288. Too bad it doesn't have final say in things.

Yesterday got away form me pretty fast, as I got busy, and never recovered. So, today I'll try again with the walk/exercise thing. Maybe tomorrow will be the 287 day. Here's hoping.

Today's Weight: 288.2
Yesterday's Weight: 288
Change: +0.2
Total Weight Lost: 19
Pounds to Goal B: 1.2

When Will I Hit 287?

Today's Weight: 288.0
Yesterday's Weight: 289.8
Change: -1.8
Total Weight Lost: 19.2
Pounds to Goal B: 1

I am one pound away from hitting my goal, which I hoped to hit by 7.31. I see no reason I can't nail that tomorrow. I'm going to do everything in my power to kill it, actually. Take the kids for a walk, do some push ups, hit the perfect pull up, and hopefully play basketball again tonight.

I've played the last two nights, actually. Nothing major, just some playful stuff with my brother and nieces, and even a little with Beck last night.

If I can do all those things, and make sure my diet is spot-on today, I'll expect to see a 287 - or under - tomorrow morning at 8:30.

And that would rock.
