Today I am feeling pretty damn awesome! See my ticker over there to the left? Yeah. 230 pounds. That's how much I weigh today, and that is amazing! I've lost 36 pounds altogether, and I am beyond impressed with myself! Which, I guess sounds bad... But hey! I'm doing some major things here! I'm literally working my ass off, and it feels great. Last Thursday when I posted here last, I weighed 233 pounds... Then my scale was a jerk on friday, then things just fell off all of a sudden. Seriously. From Friday, my weigh-ins looked like this:
235-233-232-231-230-230
Craziness. I'm thinking that I was retaining something or.... Something. 'Cause that's usually the only explanation for drops like that! Not that I'm complaining. I love to see that number get lower and lower... ;)
Time for some math fun! As of today it has been 17 weeks since I started this journey! That's pretty awesome. In 17 weeks, I've lost 36 pounds, which comes out to an average of 2.12 pounds lost per week! I absolutely LOVE that I have been able to maintain that kind of momentum. Seriously. It's absolutely amazing to me what my body is capable of if I just, yaknow, give it the effort it needs! Now why didn't I figure that out sooner?? LOL.
School starts for me on Tuesday... Let the craziness begin!!! I still don't have something to take food with me yet. I went to Target to find something, and all of their options were just... Not what I wanted. At all. Leave it to me to be picky! I may just start of with throwing stuff into a tupperware container or something that I can fit in my backpack... Just don't take anything that would need to stay cool. I dunno. I'll figure something out, I'm sure!
I'm just so pleased with my fabulous progress right now. It really is just amazing to me how far I've come. I still have a ways to go... But in 9 more pounds, I'll be halfway to my goal! Yeeee! So rediculously exciting... I can't even begin to explain it. :D I just have to keep moving forward!
Wooooohoooooo! That is so exciting!
ReplyDeleteYou and I started at about the same time, and you are leaving me in the dust with the weight loss, so I know how very hard you are working at this. Good job girl...and you go right on and be proud of yourself because you sure deserve it!
Good luck transitioning to the school routine.
That is such exciting news. It seems like you've been doing an incredible job at staying on track so far. You have all the right in the world to brag about what you've lost. 36lbs in 17 weeks is seriously AMAZING. Keep up the great work!!
ReplyDeleteThanks guys! I'm really feeling fantastic right now with everything that's happened! It really does amaze me how well I've done so far. :) It can only keep getting better!
