A whole year gone by

Wow, I started this blog for myself over a year ago, but, lost momentum after only a few weeks. I wonder why.
The good news is that I weigh 180 lbs today, so that is 15 lbs less than when I started 13 months ago.
I wonder if it is because I am trying to eat healthier. Of course I have had setbacks, but, losing 15 lbs in a year isn't bad either.
As of today I am going to commit to this blog and post something every day, even if it is only to say hi to myself and to pat myself on the back.
Good job so far Anne. Keep it going....

OK, so, my first weigh in and I now weigh 184.7. That is a loss of 10.3 lbs. I know it is mostly water, but, if I can keep that off, I will be happy.
I have followed my own diet directions faithfully, therefore, am hoping that even though it is water weight it will be gone forever....
Still don't feel comfortable enough to post my fat pics. Hopefully I will feel confident enough to post them soon....

November 2, 2008

So far, so good.
I have been behaving and have stayed away from all the halloween treats, even the extras.
Went for a 45 minute hike yesterday with hubby around Hemlock Ravine. Also went for a hike today on another trail.
Tomorrow morning will be my first weigh in with the Boss (Monica). I know that I will probably lose water weight, but right now, weight is weight and if I can lose it, I am going to.
Till tomorrow.....

November 1, 2008

Well, my day started off on the right track.
Got up this morning, dusted off the treadmill and went for a 20 minute fast pace walk.
Also drank a bottle of water whIile on the treadmill. Must remember to drink, drink, drink.....Water that is!
OK, now I feel confident enough to tell you that when I got weighed yesterday I was a whopping 195 lbs. Yep! hard to believe for some, but not for me. I knew it was going to be a whopper, and I don't mean burger....LOL
I am still not confident enough to post my measurements and pics, therefore, I will keep those for a later post.
Soooooo. My goal is to lose 50 lbs. and keep it off. I will be happy with any weight loss, so lets see how this journey will end.
Will update on food intake later today.

October 31, 2008

This is the start of my blog.
My goal is to lose 50 lbs of unwanted excess weight.
I must journal daily to remind myself of what I can accomplish.
Before pictures, measurements, and weight have been recorded.
I will have Monica weigh me on Monday, Wednesday and Friday mornings.
I will post pictures later........
