The Yo Yo...week 7

Well, its week 7 and I lost 2.6 pounds for a total of 15.4. I feel so good about myself and am looking forward to my goal weight.



Funny story this week. I weigh myself everyday, sometimes more than once...yes I know I shouldn't but I do...kinda like a car wreck...you see the slowed trafic and think hum, must be a car wreck...dang lookie loo's! But then you get closer and you find yourself looking. With the scale...its in my bathroom, first thing I see when Iwalk in and I think no, not gonna do it and I get closer and think no...but then I get on. Anyway everytime I weighed myself this week it alsways seemed to say "Hey ya fat cow!" Never lost a pound. Then Saturday morning...BAM! lost 2.4 pounds it was exciting! So Sunday morning same thing but I gained 3 pounds. GAINED 3 pounds. How can one gain 3 pounds in one day when I have done nothing but try. Anywho...fastforward to Sunday night 9:30 pm. I go to bed and lay there and think "Hey...I promised myslef I would get on the treadmill at least 5 times a week and this week I only got on 4 times" so what did I do??? Got up and went down and got on the treadmill for 40 mins. Slept prettry good that night too!

My life...gotta love it! So 15.4 pounds gone! Yay for me! We will see what next week brings since the kids are on spring break this week. Heaven help me!

The Yo Yo

This is the Name of my Real Life Reality Show. My life has been one HUGE Yo Yo ride. I'm up then I'm down. I go Up Up Up and then Down Down Down. Lets just hope this time the string will break and I will stay down!!!



Monday was "Weigh in Day" and I lost ZERO, zip ziltch, NADA! Nada damn thing! Oh well...it's better than gaining HUH!



So let me just tell you the AWSOME idea I had the other day. Me, 209 pound me, decided that it would be a great idea for me to get extra exercise so I decided that I would (when the weather gets nicer) Let the kids ride thier bikes to school. This being said, if they ride to school then I have to ride too. There is a busy street they have to cross and I don't want them to do it by themselves. Any who...I thought that I should ride it first to see what it would be like. It's two miles there and two back so a total of 4 miles in the morning and then another 4 miles in the afternoon. YEOWCH! So It was a BE-U-TI-FUL day yesterday, (so nice we grilled out) 72 to be exact, and I thought I would do my trial run. Got on my bike and took off. I need to talk to the ladies in the front office at school anyway so I was killing two birds with one stone! Gotta love the motivation I had yesterday! Ok, so I am riding down the street to the first stop sign and I'm doing ok, but right past the first stop sign, I started feeling it in my thighs and was wondering if this was not such a GREAT idea. But I didn't listen and kept right on treckin. I will not bore you with the whole trip to the school...yes I made it and yes I thought I was never going to be able to walk again when I got there and mind you I had to go back home too. Lets just say I am having second thoguhts on the whole ride your bike to school thing. My butt is so sore and you saw the pictures...I have padding and my seat it a jell seat so it is really comfy, Don't know how I bruised my butt but I did. The kids have spring break next week so we will try it all together to see how we do as a team and how long it takes us. I have not givin up yet but I sure want to.

Thank You and Week 4

I would just like to say thank you to all who commented. I needed the encouragement. It means a lot to me!

Yesterday was "Way in Monday". I lost 4.4 pounds!!! It was way more than I thought I had lost so with my luck I will gain it back this week. (Just kidding) So my total for 4 weeks is 12.8 pounds GONE!! My jeans are way looser than 4 weeks ago and I can now wear both my wedding ring and the band together again. You know I think that was the last straw that broke my camels back. Me being over weight almost killed the poor thing one but two..Me...jewelery queen not being able to wear my jewels. OMG!!! Kinda sad but true.

So there ya go. Another great week on WW Whoooo Hoooooo! I was going to post another picture of me but there isn't enough change yet, even though I can feel it, you can't really see it yet. One more month and I'm hopin to post a picture. We shall see. So thanks again. And please stay tuned into my real life reality show! (Thanks Melanie) I guess I need to come up with a name for it. See ya next week!

Prepare yourselves!!!!

Ok, I know, I know, it's been a long long time. I have been debating on my next post and I have decided to go with Trying to keep myself accountable. Yep you read that right. I started Weight Watchers on February 9th and I thought that if I posted my journey on my blog that you all could keep me movtivated and accountable. My weight has gotten out of control and I don't want to turn 45 and be over weight. I will not do it anymore, So I am going out on a limb, a very wobbly one and I am going to post my start weight and a picture of me on my start date as well. Kinda scary for me to do but if I don't how will you all know how I am doing and keep me accountable and movtivated. I don't know either! Be for warned that the picture is kinda scary because I am so over weight. But it is coming off. My first week I lost 4.2 pounds. Week two I lost 2 pounds and week three, 2.2 pounds. I am on week 4 and think I'm doing pretty good. I have started my treadmill every day for an hour. If I miss a day I punish myself and have to go and hour and a half the next day. I try not to miss to many days! So wish me luck! Ok...here comes the picture. AAhhhhhhhhh I just have to cry I look so horrible! Mark my words though...By December 18th you are going to see one HOT momma! Oopps almost forgot...my start weight was 222. YUCK!!!!
