5 days until weigh in

I feel wonderful today.  Worked out yesterday and Tuesday and working out tonite.  I love my Curves experience!  Ms. Sharron is wonderful!  I feel full of energy and motivated to stay on track.  I want to be able to hike and bike when we move to Colorado next summer.  I don't want to move there and be fat and lazy.  We are moving for a better life and if we don't change what we're doing now, no amount of scenery change is gonna make our life better.  Get off the couch and move our butt!!

1 week before 2nd weigh in

well here we are again, only a few days away from the second weigh in.  i am feeling pretty confident that i have continued to lose weight and inches.  we will be working out this week pretty hard just to work off any 'ice cream' calories i have taken in over the last couple of days.  :)  Autumn continues to look like she is slimming down.  that or she's just growing taller, could be both.  she's only a couple inches shorter than me now.  before long i will be looking 'up' to both my kids.  not looking forward to that.  but i do know that when you are trim and slim, you have better posture and that makes you look taller.  :) 

Motivated

Today is a great day!  My clothes are fitting looser and I feel wonderful!  I am loving my Curves experience!  Who knew that for just 30 minutes a day, 3 days a week would produce such great results.  I love what I see and it motivates me to work harder, eat better and give up the pop and junk food.  I am actually looking forward to the day I have to go buy new clothes. 

Starting Week 7

Well I was able to get back into a pair of jeans that just 6 weeks ago i could barely pull them up.  I have them on today at work!  I'm so amazed!  I can feel a difference in the way my shirts fit too.  I am loving the Curves experience!  I could kick myself for waiting for so long to do something about my weight.  I am making a vow to never be overweight again!! 

Week 6

well  I am starting week 6 of Curves.  Still loving it!  Still on the DP high though.  Can't seem to kick this bad habit.  I am still working on it though.  Some days are better than others.  I am trying to eat healthier and make better choices.  Chocolate is not a food group!!

Still going.....strong?

Well here we are on the start of week 6.  Today is a very tough day.  Very busy at work and I'm very hungry today.  Not mention Aunt Flo is here this week.  That makes it even worse.  I just want to lounge on the couch with some ice cream and watch NCIS.  But I have to push on.  My daughter is counting on me and she is my biggest supporter.  She pushes me when I really want to stay put.  I love my Autumn! 

End of 5th week

I have fallen off the DP wagon.  Hit the ground hard too.  I have come to the realization that I am addicted to DP.  Why is everything that tastes so good so bad for you?  I am an avid drinker of milk...chocolate milk that is but milk nonetheless.  It's better than no milk at all.  I pledge to myself to drink more water and less DP.  I still feel pretty good about the progress I have made in the past 4 weeks.  Looking foward to the next weigh in to see how much better I've done.

Until next Monday.....Have a great weekend.

1st Weigh In

The first weigh in on Tuesday Oct. 5th was great!!  I lost 4 1/2 lbs., 5 1/2 total inches and 2 lbs of body fat.  It has been a productive 4 weeks.  I really didn't change the way I ate or anything.  I just worked out 3 times a week for 30 minutes a day.  I am so proud of myself and can't wait to see what the next 4 weeks hold in store for me.  On a separate note, my daughter lost 3 inches off her waist alone.  She is making a great improvement too.

We are having so much fun together.
