Weight Loss Update

Well last week's weigh in made my Valentines Day .... I hope this week's weight loss shows good results again. It is becoming such a good habit for me instead of feeling like I can't eat things any more. I have lost a lot of taste for candy and soda, well the soda started it all in December of last year. When I completely gave up regular soda. I drink a diet soda once in a while but I drink a lot more water than before.

Weight Loss Update

So it's my weight watcher's night...... went to my meeting this afternoon to be weighed in. I lost another 5 lbs this week. I am starting to notice my figure a little more.... my overall weight loss goal has changed to 120 lbs rather than 140. I feel really good... and have a lot more energy than I did have before. I am really happy about the progress that I have made in my weight loss journey!!!

Valentines Day

We celebrated our second Valentines Day as a married couple today.. and our third one as a couple!!! We decided about two weeks ago that instead of making it about us as a couple we would make today about our Makayla. So this is what we did...... We took her out to dinner, and came home and watched a movie as a family, we got her a box of chocolates and a teddy bear. We decided to make it about her and for her becasue our individual time as a couple is our Anniversary in December. It takes a lot of stress out of things in planning gifts and surprises!!! It's great!!!

Changes

Well I haven't wrote in along time..... so I figured it was time to write again... it's been a while since I have sat down to do this. My 30th birthday was really good.. David took me out to a nice Dinner with some friends and family. I made some new years resolutions this year.. I am not one to do that normally but this year I thought it was time. I have been battling with my weight for the better part of three years. I have gotten really frustrated with it. So I decided it was time to make a change, so the first thing that I did was gave up soda completely accept for the occasional diet drink. But that is far and few in between. The second thing that I did was joined weight watchers, I have been going for the past three weeks. Now mind you at Christmas time my scale said 209 and it hadn't moved in 6 months so I was really frustrated.... Well when you give up something like soda you tend to loose weight needless to say. I had not a clue how much weight I would loose by doing this simple task. When I went to my first weight watcher's meeting I weighted in at an even 200 lbs. Last week I weighed in at 194 lbs, and this week I weighed in at 190!!! I have lost 18 pounds since Christmas and 6 1/2 pounds in three weeks, All becasue I started eating right and changing my habits.... Let me tell you it feels really good.

I have never had any problems with my eyes until I turned 30.... and then it just went down hill... so I have to wear glasses now ... no big deal...... Makayla had to get them too. So not only did I loose weight I got sort of a new look too... hehehe!!!

This year has started off with a bang....... Tax Season is going smoothly as it can...... School is going great!!!! I am plugging along at it...... I am closer to graduation......... by a year!!

I am going to start posting more often now.... with weekly updates about things now...........

Until next time......
