first off...a superficial thought:
i.am.currently.wearing.MY WEDDING & ENGAGEMENT RINGS!
they have not fit since before i got pregnant with M. lets also say, that this ring was purchased for me when i was about 195 lbs. im currently sitting at 232.2 and im wearing it. maybe because im losing the weight right and consistently. maybe ill be thinner looking at 195 this time around? who knows. only time will tell.
i can tell with my mentality the last 2 months how its gonna be different this time. i feel better. motivated. i dont make as many excuses as i used to. i MOVE. its not about gym all the time, now it is about MOVEMENT and THAT makes a lot of difference. between tennis, biking, sand volleyball...im moving so much every week. i still dont feel lighter, and some days it hasnt hit me. the other day i went to a calorie burn website i use (healthstatus.com) and it asks for your weight. i entered 250 out of habit. but im nearly 20 lbs less than that! how crazy!
on July 21st i set a goal with a friend to lose 30 lbs by Dec. 25th. i was 251 lbs. here i am, 6 weeks later, it beign August 24th. i have FOUR MONTHS to go and i am down 19 lbs. soooo basically my goal is to lose 11 lbs in 16 weeks. lol. i feel empowered.
J is being SO awesome. he bikes 9 miles to work and 9 back on occasion. he loves to go play tennis and vollyball with me. he loves to eb active. and you know whats way awesome? he was at his highest after M was born at 262 lbs. he is now 229 as of this morning. WHAT A GUY! :)
its more than just him. this is a family affair.
Since July 6th:
my younger sister J has lost 18 lbs.
older sister K has lost 27 lbs.
brother in law S has lost 42 lbs.
my J has lost 33 lbs.
cousin A has lost 20 lbs.
as a family, just those members, we have lost ONE HUNDRED NINETY FIVE LBS!!! holy SHOOT. thats CRAZY.
we have lost an entire me at my goal weight :)
that fact alone is exciting.
