Day 118

So for today I'm going to work on my goals and motivations for the coming weeks. I have 3 milestones that I want to hit soon, and they are within reach and I can't wait to get to them.

In order, they are:
  • Getting under 210 lbs. (this could very well happen at my next weigh-in
  • Getting under 200 lbs. (could be accomplished within 4 weeks; haven't been this low since before I was pregnant with my 1st son over 7 years ago)
  • Dropping my BMI to 29, which will be below the 'obese' range and into the 'overweight' range
I had set out at the beginning of my summer break to be confident enough to wear a cute dress (or skirt) back to school tomorrow... I did go clothes shopping two days ago and tried on some dresses. They were cute and I liked them, and was mostly comfortable in them, but I've never been really into dresses, and couldn't justify spending that much money on something I may not wear more than one or two times. (The old adage- if you don't love it in the store, you won't love it or wear it at home.) So I don't count this as a failure- I just changed my mind, because I could very well wear one, but it's not my style really. But I did find other cute things that are more form fitting and I'm absolutely excited to wear them!

Day 117

Another loss despite going home to Buffalo for 2 days!

-1.8 lbs. : )

My totals now are: 38.4 lbs. lost and 25.25 inches dropped overall since April 2nd, 2011!
These are great numbers and I look forward to hitting the 210 lb mark next Sunday!

Day 110

A correction from today's earlier update...

I was elated, but cautious about a 5.6 lb. weight loss this week. So, I went to the bathroom and weighed again. Mind you, I weighed and reweighed myself 4 times when I saw 210 this morning. I couldn't believe it! But this time the scale was more reasonable and gave me a more predictable number. It seems I actually lost 2.2 lbs. this week, which is still above me weekly goal. I'm still thrilled! But that damn scale... I moved it around a few times to different parts of my bathroom floor and got different results each time, but couldn't duplicate the 210, so I used the number that appeared most often, which is 213.4 lbs. I'm good with that though : )
