FINALLY!

Ok, so as you have probably noticed, the tracker has been at 196 for some time now. With vacation, Mom visiting, and just plain not eating like I know I should, I couldn't seem to get below the 196 mark for an entire MONTH!! It's been frustrating, and I have been down on myself for a while, but this week I did it! I am 194!! I just keep thinking....5 more pounds, and I'll never have to see the number 9 in the "tenths place" of my weight again (except maybe when I'm pregnant...but I hope not even then!).

Back to Business

Well, we got back from Myrtle Beach about a week ago. I DID work out one day while we were down there, but I ate really really bad! I was really nervous to come back and see how much weight I had gained, but to my surprise, I had only gained 3 pounds (Shelby was mad...he gained 8 and ate the same exact things that I ate......don't ask me how!). So, this week, I was getting back into the groove....I didn't do awesome, but I still managed to lose the three pounds I had gained the week before! So, all that to say, it wasn't so bad. It only took me a week to get back on track. It's been hard though. I definitely let myself go while I was on vacation because I thought it would be better to give in to my cravings and get them out of the way. But I found that giving in to the cravings has made it that much harder to come back to real life and eat the way I am supposed to! So, hopefully I will be able to keep it up......no, I know I am going to keep it up! I'll be letting you know how that works out for me!

Tough Stuff

Well, the good news for this week is that I am at 196, which means I have now lost 30 pounds (25 from the time that I joined Weight Watchers). The bad news is that I am going on vacation this week. I really want to do good, but I know that I am probably going to be bad. I guess the goal for this week is just not to gain any weight. The place that we are staying at in Myrtle Beach has a work out facility, so I'm packin' the workout clothes in hopes of being inspired to sweat a little while I am there (besides the sweating I will do layin' out in the sun!).
