5%
Tuesday, August 31st 2010
I lost 3 pounds on the scale last night! Woo HOo!!!!
That is my 5%. I know I have a long way to go, but it feels really really great to see it coming off. Just a few weeks ago I looked at 10% and said "I'll never get there. That is too much". But now I can see that goal and feel myself heading toward it and know that I can do it. I love setting these small goals. They help so much. I had lowered my calories by 100 points like they said I could do, and it really helped. I was so f...
Tough Day
Monday, August 30th 2010
Well I am 3/4 of the way through the day and it's been a tough one. It's a good thing there is no extra food around me, because I don't know if I could resist. Yesterday I just wanted to eat everything in sight, but I didn't. Today, much better, but I'm not feeling too strong.I can't wait to get out of work. I am subbing today, and this rep's people are hard to work with. I am glad for the air conditioning in here, though. It is hot and humid outside and I don't have air at home exc...

Was in a rush this morning. Didn't get all the things I needed. Ended up getting a bagel from my favorite bagel place and that was okay because the rest of the day I had low calorie foods: fruit, cottage cheese, lettuce w/o dressing... But I bought some cooked bratwurst for dinner when I was at the store. After I bought it, I looked at the label and WOW. 290 calories for 1 and 270 of those calories are from fat! Do I really want to have that???? I think not.... I will feed them to my husban...Goals

Today I am moving on.
My next goal is the 5% which I only have 2 lbs to lose to get to. My reward is a new swimming suit. I am pretty confident that I can meet this goal! 
Then downward to the next goal of fitting into my 22's by the end of September. I really like having these goals. I used to set weight goals only, but am finding that having various goals helps me stay motivated. The numbers sometimes are disappointing, you worry about ever little pound. But having a goal about fitting...
