Weekly Weigh In: July 30

July 30, 2008 By 2 Comments

I’m very excited to finally tell you the scale moved!  I lost 2 lbs and it’s definitely because I have been more mindful of my portions, added a bit more exercise to the mix-those extra 10 min. on the Elliptical really do help move things along and for a few days my calories have been approximately 200 less than normal (but still in a healthy calorie range).

I haven’t taken measurements in quite some time so starting Friday, I will do that again on a regular monthly basis.  I would like to lose approximately 10 lbs more before we head off to Jamaica near the end of the year.

My current weight 192

Goal weight 135-140

Pounds left to go 50+

Feel free to weigh in and stay accountable too. Wishing you a successful week!

Three days off this week but I still feel good.  I was in some pretty bad pain there for a few days.  My back and whole right side, all the way down to my foot had sharp pains.  Hubby thinks it had something to do with my sciatica.  I don’t think I have yet recovered from playing volleyball a few weekends ago.  That really kicked my booty ha ha.  So needless to say, I did not meet my goal for the week.

How did you do this week?

Weight Loss Support

It’s time for your Fit & Healthy Friday Tip.

Today’s Tip: Weight Loss Support

It’s time to find a workout buddy. This person can be a friend, family member or co-worker. Having a workout partner will challenge you to do better and there are less chances that you will skip your workout.

My hubby, Kevin is my workout buddy and accountability partner. He pushes me to keep going when I start to slow down or feel like stopping altogether. We enjoy working out together very much.

If you don’t have someone local, stay accountable to an online friend.

Do you have a workout buddy?

Everything still the same.  Working on more healthy lifestyle and exercise goals to help change that.  I need to see the numbers on the scale start to move again.  I know inch loss is most important but I know I can get the scale to show some more positive numbers so I just have to keep going.

My current weight 194

Goal weight 135-140
