Just A Note

This month is turning out to be the hardest month yet. With going back to work and the heat wave. I don't want to beat myself up if I don't reach my goal but I need to get my head out of my ass. Last week I only worked out twice the whole week. This week only once today when I walked two miles with my husband and my DVD workouts. Another thing on my mind is the fact that my husband will be gone as of tomorrow for his schooling. My support system will be gone. Fortunately I have friends that will help me, in staying motivated but its up to me to exercise and eat well. Like I have said in previous post I never knew what caused me to sabotage my weight loss but NOW I do. I will succeed.

2nd Weigh In

What can I say, but I think this month was harder than last month. I went through a depression faze where I was upset with my husband because he has lost 42Pd's. Where I was struggling to even lose 5 Pd's. I was losing focus on the fact that I was going to do this at a slow pace but my competitive side wanted to keep up with my husband. In my head MY voice was putting me down, for being heavier than him. In MY head my thoughts where, people where judging me for being the heavy girl with the thin guy. That was beating me up. Where I almost gave up a few times. Honestly the only thing that pulled me up from that was my husband. He on the other hand has been so supportive even when I was trying his patience. My love for him has grown even stronger. My friends and family are now letting me know that they notice the weight loss, which is a good motivational booster. My biggest hinder next month will probably be that my husband will be away and only be home on the weekends. That's going to be hard but I've done it before. I'm also back to work where my exercise routine will need to change. As for my weigh in I am 191. Losing 7Pd's this month making my total Pd's lost 20Pd's bra line 35 1/2,belly 44,hips 47,shoulders 39 1/2,calves 15 1/2(both sides),thighs 27 1/2 (both sides), arms 14 (both sides). Total inches lost this month compared from last month was 4.5 inches. I stayed the same in some areas but that's OK. I will lose some next month. As of right now I have lost 22.5 inches. Hopefully I counted right. I am happy with the progress. Next month I would like to be 185 Pd's. by weigh in. That means about 2 Pd's a week. If I lose more that would be awesome.
