Week one is done and I'm feeling ok! The official weigh in has me at -7 pounds for the week.  Not as much as I was hoping for my first week but I'll take it. I know next week the numbers wont be as high but I'm hoping for 3. My mini goal is 260 by 4th of July.

What's your next mini goal? What are you doing to achieve it?

I had a gain today. I'm up .8 pounds from yesterday. I'm still down 6.4 for the week so I should feel accomplished but I actually just feel defeated. Yesterday I was so happy with myself. I took pride in myself.  I did my hair and make up just because I felt like I was worth it and I had so much confidence. I was feeling like "YES! I can do this!" and then today the old voices start creeping in. "Why bother? You're always going to be fat." Well this time I'm not giving up. Its ridiculous that .8 pounds can make me doubt myself. I'm just as awesome as I was yesterday dang it! I started this journey and that's something  to take pride in. As long as I try my best I should be confident. I'm sure the numbers will go up and down a million times throughout this process so I have to focus on more than just the numbers.

I thought that I did really well yesterday. I made good choices but I may have eaten less than I should have. I think I do better staying at the top of my caloric range for now. I'm also going to commit to only weighing in on Mondays. It was exciting to watch the numbers drop but as it slows I think it will just be a discouragement.

How are your weigh ins going?

Again

So, here I am again. Starting all over- AGAIN. I know, I know. If you don't want to keep starting over quit giving up.  I'm five days in to my plan and feeling ok. I'm upping my calories that I allow myself and hoping that I dont feel deprived and fall of the wagon again.

The hubby has moved to Ohio for a new job. I'm hoping that makes it easier on me. I have enough willpower on my own but when he's here and wanting to eat out or eat pure crap is so much harder for me.

First official weigh in is on Monday. I Of course I've been weighing myself anyway. I'm down 4.5 pounds. Hoping for 6 by Monday!
