Week Four Complete!

Well I did it....I passed the 10lb mark! I just got home from my weigh in and was sooo excited to blog! I lost 3.4lbs this week!!! Craziness!!! I really wasn't expecting that but I am quite happy! My total is 12.8lbs so far.....its slowly getting up there, my butterfly ticker is flying away, lol.

This week I joined a bootcamp class, and I got all my measurements taken (scary!) and they also measured my body fat percentage. So when I get a chance I will post all my measurements thus far and then write all the after measurements (which im hoping to be less) when bootcamp is done. It begins Monday Sept 15th and its for 4 weeks. I chose to go 3 times a week for now. Im really hoping that now that I have the hang of eating healthier, that I can bring in some activity to boost up the weight loss a bit more.

I only have 9.2lbs till my 10%!!! That is my first big goal! I am hoping to get that before my birthday (October 29th). That works out to 1.4-1.6lbs lost per week. Can I do it? YES!!! ;) That would be a wonderful birthday gift to myself! :) (Along with a new outfit of course!!!) Well I shall keep you all updated!!! Ta ta for now!!!

Weigh In Day!

Where do I begin.........this was a really tough week. I was quite scared to go to weigh in this week. I had a lot of functions and birthdays (which means birthday cake!) to go to, plus is was long weekend......I did indulge on a few goodies (maybe a little bit too much) but overall it could have been A LOT worse. I went to weigh in and lost 0.4 lbs. Yup......thats it, lol. But I didn't gain. So I must say I am happy about that part. I know I could have done a lot better but considering I didn't eat one dinner at my house all week, it doesn't seem so awful.

I am excited this week because my cousin and one of my friends joined WW with me again. I am hoping we will all keep each other motivated to go every week and stay on plan. This week my challenge is to go on my tredmill for 5 outta the 7 days for at least 30 min. I figure I can do it during a tv show for a half hour. It seems so simple so we'll see how it goes.

Well wish me luck this week.....I feel focused and I want to get passed the 10 pound mark! lol :) Have a great week to all!!!!

Week 3 Weigh In! :)

Well im already going into my third week! I am glad I still feel so motivated and excited. It's thursday so I obviously went to weigh in anddddddd I lost 2 pounds!! :) Its a big difference then last week but its still great! Now im down 9lbs! I dont remember the last time I said that, lol. I feel like I can really do it this time. I am so excited to see what the next week has in store for me. I really can't wait to reach my 10%.....I still have a while to go (13 lbs) but if I keep this up Ill get there in no time. I am going back to school next week so that will definetly be my challenge. In the summer I work full time so I have more of a scheduled routine where as school is all over the place. I need to plan ahead and work through it day by day. I hope everyone has a wonderful long weekend as I will too!!! Ta ta for now!!!

Who knew blogging was fun :)

Well its one day before weigh in day. I am quite nervous to weigh in this week and I dont know why. I feel like because I lost 7 pounds my first week it is going to be that much harder to lose a pound this week! I have a dinner tonight at my sisters house because she just got married recently and moved into her condo. She is making my favorite pasta dish that is in a rose sauce which is totally NOT healthy! Its all about portion control tonight. I am going to eat as light as possible today and save my points for tonight :)

This whole blog thing is so fun! I really love the comments ppl write as well as reading other people's blogs. I just learned how to change my backround which is sooo pretty :) But for some reason when I changed it, it deleted all of my blog list and my weight loss ticker.....is that normal? I really hope it doesnt always delete everything because that would really suck :( Anwho I shall blog tomorrow again after my results.....till then ta ta for now :)

Week 2!!!

Well here goes my second post.......I have tried really hard this past week and I have been tracking and drinking my water daily. I had a few indulges but no matter what it was I tracked it as best as I could. I went to my weekly meeting yesterday to weigh in and the results were......I LOST 7 POUNDS!!!! I was shocked! I actually enjoyed myself all week with fruits and vegis and it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. I went out for 2 dinners and still managed to stay on track. I am so motivated to do well again this week! So far so good.....I am learning to just take this one day at a time. I know it will take a while but eventually I will get there if I stick to it.

Last week I focused mainly on drinking my water and this week I am focused on going for a power walk three times for an hour. We'll see how that goes......activity isnt my strong suit but at least I'll gain some AP's. Well for those who are in the same boat, keep to it, theres no rush and if you really want something you can always achieve it! :)

Day One

Well this is my first blog! I have never made one of these before but as I was browsing the net at work I became so motiavted and inspired by some blogs that I read. So....i figured I could try and motivate myself and start one too :)

I have been on and off WW for a few years now and I really need the motivation to get focused and stay dedicated to it for good! I went for my fresh start (again) yesterday to see the dreadful scale. I am at my highest weight ever......225.6!!! I don't know how it came to this.......but I need to face reality, no excuses anymore. My key thing is.......YOU BITE IT, YOU WRITE IT!! And thats what I am focused on doing this week. I am doing the flex plan right now but I may try the core in the future. I am 5'4 and 23 years old. I have always been considered the "chubby" one all my life. It would be amazing to not feel like that for once.

I'd love to hear peoples comments and successes that helped them along the way. This is a lifestyle change and I accept that. I shall keep an update at least every weigh in, if not more, to let you know my results. (hopefully they are good ones) Ta ta for now!!

p.s. pictures to come :)
