End of Week 4

This week started off rough, I was having trouble controling what I was eating. Then, at the end of the week, it completely flipped and I didn't want to eat anymore. Weird stuff. I lost quite a bit of weight this week which I am not going to complain about but I have a feeling, next week with be a lot harder.

Here is my summery for the week:

At the beginning I was at 259.2, last week I was 251 and this morning my weight was 243.6 for a weight loss of 7.4 for the week 15.6 pounds total! :)This week I began to notice that I could see a difference in my body and I feel different.... maybe even sexier. ;)

 

Here are my pictures from the end of week 4!

End of Week 3

You are probably wondering where day's 5, 6 and 7 went. I didn't even keep track of my calories. I decided when we got to the hotel that I was going to enjoy the weekend. I still limited the junk that I ate but defiantely didn't eat as well as I should have. It was a weekend of splurging and it was wonderful! I was very happily surprised to see that I still lost a little bit. I think that the lack of calories the beginning of the week probably helped that. Plus every night I would swim laps in the pool for an hour. Now that I am home, I am trying to get back into the routine and it's actually not going to bad, but that is for a post later in the day.

Here is my summery for the week:

At the beginning I was at 259.2, last week I was 252.8 and this morning my weight was 251 for a weight loss of 1.8 for the week 8.2 pounds total! :) I am noticing that I am feeling better about myself and my clothes are fitting better.

Here are my pictures from the end of week 3!

End of Week 2

This week went well. I did have one mess up day but I am proud of how I did and lost weight so that is good enough for me. The kids were sick tward the end of the week so things got a little stressful and, even as I write this, my daughter is standing at the gate screaming for me to pick her up. She's back to feeling normal but I think she got a little spoiled with all the cuddling when she was sick. It's going to take a little while to break her of that. I love cuddling with her but she needs to be independant too.

I also started (as of today) NaNoWriMo (National Novel Writers Month) and have challenged myself to write a novel (50,000 words in one month.... so far I have 725 so hopefully I am not putting too much on my plate. I hope I can do it! :)

Anyway, here is my summary for the week.

At the beginning I was at 259.2, last week I was 256.2 and this morning my weight was 252.8 for a weight loss of 3.4 for the week 6.4 pounds total! :)

Here are my pictures from the end of week 2!
