Okay weighed myself this morning and it said I’d gained FOUR pounds! Bah!

On to smaller and better things!

Took the Week Off

Okay, I didn’t even bother to diet this week or exercise. It’s too hot in my house to excercise since our main AC went out. At least it “should” be fixed next wednesday grrr. We’ll see. The bums need to get their butts out here and install the new one!

Plus things were slowing down. I need to lose 85 more, and I’d like to finish before I’m say 40! LOL

And since this weekend is a holiday, I think it would have been a craptastic time to start anyway. So monday, I’m going back on my diet with renewed zeal. I’m going to do a straightening and cleaning out of my cabinets and refrigerator because that seems to help me get in the zone. Then it’s lean cuisines and slimfasts.

So that’s why I’m not weighing in today. I probably gained just a little back since I wasn’t dieting OR working out. We’ll see on monday. I’ll weigh in then since that’s when I start my gung ho-ness.

Happy 4th of July!

Current Weight: 235
Loss: 2
Total loss: 37

Yay! I made my second mini goal!!! I now weigh as much as I did when I got prego with my DS1. I better go find my other mini goals list…

Pasting from Much, Much Earlier and edited slightly because I actually restarted my journey with much more success in January, but with three more pounds than I originally had in the first post.

Goals

#1= Lose 7#s total (265) to get to pre-DS2 weight – shouldn’t be crazy hard

#2= Lose 37#s total (235) to get to pre-DS1 weight – harder

#3= Lose 67#s total (205) to get to the weight I was before my first pregnancy. I lost the baby and gained a lot of weight from depression – still harder. (At this point, I will have passed the point where I have less to lose than I’ve already lost. That’ll be a big day!)

#4= Lose 92#s total (180) to get to the weight I was the day I got married – even harder still

#5= Lose 122#s total (150) to get to the weight I was when I started college and thought I looked pretty darn good – this is gonna be brutal

#1 – Check!

#2 – Check!

Next stop #3!

My methods are going to be…

Start running again. As soon as my new air conditioner is installed, cause seriously I can’t run in this heat! MAKE myself do strength training. Start back with slim fasts and lean cuisines.

Hopefully it won’t take as long to get to mini-goal 3!

*grumbles* The first time I stepped on the scale this morning it said 232! Wow! Then logic stepped in a said…ahem, excuse me, but that cannot be correct. So I weighed about 12 more times with weights ranging from 232 to 245. The master bathroom floor can no longer be considered an acceptable weighing place. On the hall bathroom floor I got a fairly consistent 244. Which sucks. A lot. Did I ever even reach 239? Was my scale lying to me? Is it just ’cause it’s cycle time? Depressed does not begin to cover it. *Grumpy*

Getting back into the kettlebells after a long May.

That wasn’t much loss, but then I kinda cheated over the weekend so I probably shouldn’t have expected much. Plus I only ran twice this week instead of 3 times.

Stupid period. I’ve been good all week. *shakes her fist at water retention*

Finally!

I finally beat my low of 241 with a current weight of 240. Maybe this will give me the encouragement I need to try a little harder this coming week. I might be slowly making it out of survival mode and back into living al ittle! Hooray!
