Today’s Weight: 138.4 lbs
Total Loss: 16.6 lbs
Diet
I would have done better with the weight loss this week, except I gained a pound and a half on Easter..... lol.... I sort of just ate everything with reckless abandon! Hershey kiss at 6:30 in the morning, why not? Two rolls with butter, yes please! Oh, homemade potato salad.... yum! BUT I recovered from my sugar coma Monday morning and got back on track. :)
Exercise
Life has been really busy lately. Its hard to keep on much of an exercise schedule so I'm just trying to fit something in whenever I have a chance. I did the Jillian Michael's DVD on Saturday. I was sore, but NOTHING like the last time. I did the treadmill last night, hopefully I have time to do the DVD again tonight. Lyla has soccer on Mondays and Thursdays now, so I'm not sure how to fit much else into those evenings. And weekends are getting busy now that winter is over. But I'm doing the best I can.
Lifestyle
I'm really proud of myself for what I have accomplished in 12 weeks. I'm going to keep going and see if I can get down to 125. That's really where I want to be. And I have researched and for my height that is a healthy weight. If I can get to 125, then I just want to maintain and stay there. This isn't a "diet" for me where I see an end in sight. I don't plan on reaching a certain weight and then letting the flood gates open and eating like crazy and going right back to where I was. I don't want to be that heavy and out of shape anymore. This is the new normal for me and I'm good with that. Yes, there are some days I just want to throw in the towel and just forget the whole thing. But I just push threw them and the next day I don't feel that way anymore. The biggest part is planning ahead. If you plan ahead its so much easier to make good choices. Otherwise you just eat whatever and that's usually not a good thing.
