Week #22

I lost one pound this week bringing my total loss to 25.2 lbs - Praise God!!! :-)

Week #21

I only lost 0.2 lbs this week, but considering the week I've had, this is really good.

I haven't been feeling well since Wednesday and didn't exercise at all this week. I also had ice cream (sore throat!) almost every day this week as well as a lot of junk food like hot dogs and pizza.

Honestly, I figured that I had probably gained and was praying that I had at least maintained so I am not complaining!!! :-)

Week #20

I lost another 1.4 lbs this past week bringing my total loss to 24 lbs! Praise God!!! :-)

Another Week ...

I weighed in Saturday morning and I have lost another 1.8 pounds... PRAISE GOD!!! ... bringing my total weight loss to 22.6 lbs!

I am so thankful because I was sure I had hit some sort of plateau. About 4 weeks ago I lost over 2 lbs, the next week I maintained (meaning I didn't lose or gain), the next week I gained 0.8 lbs and then I maintained again the following week. This normally wouldn't have surprised me, but I had started working out even more than before. I was working out for at least 1-1.5 hrs and staying within my point range every day so I have to admit that I was shocked that I wasn't losing anymore.

I have been measuring myself once a month since beginning WW in May and so far I've lost a total of 15 inches. Praise God!!!

Before I close, I wanted to mention that on Sunday afternoon I actually wore a pair of shorts that I had gotten over three years ago and have never been able to wear. What a wonderful sense of accomplishment it was!!!

The Journey Has Begun...

My journey so far has been a tough, but rewarding. To date, I have lost 20.8 lbs. I am using the Weight Watchers program as well as exercise.

I decided to start a new blog that will focus mainly on my journey to get healthy and fit. I hope that it will not only keep me motivated, but that it might be an encouragement to someone else who has decided to travel the same road.
