rachiegrl6's Journey to an Old/New Me!

[rachiegrl6]

Hey Everyone! My name is Rachel. I am 19 years old and I am joining WISH because it seems to have the most support of any discussion board. Right now I'm working on losing weight for my Disney Vacation in may but of course I dont' want to put it back on after either! Haha Well here's what's going on!

Starting Weight: 171
Today's Weight 166

Weight loss to date is 5 lbs! Yeah

My weight loss goal is eventually 120 lbs but for now for February 1, 2005 is to be at 158 lbs. I think I can make it! I have to work on the exercise thing and I definately plan to when I get back to college (Etown in PA).

I hope you all will be supportive and I hope to make my success story here on disWish as so many others have!

Hi Rachel and Welcome to the WISH Journals!!
You can't find a nicer group of people! I started journaling as I was preparing for the 2005 WDW marathon and now I am going to keep journaling as I shrink this body into a new size and dimension! (Just not shorter, I hope! ) Check our some other journals - you will find lots of info and inspiration just reading how some of the WISHers work towards their own goals!

Hey everyone! Just checking in for today!
I weighed myself this morning and still 166. Hopefully I'll see a change in the next few days. By the way, I'm on the low-carb way of eating. I did this once before and lost 30 lbs so I'm psyched about it and hopefully it will work as well as last time. Thanks for all the great comments. I will check in later!

I just made an interesting low-carb snack that's really yummy. Get salami or the bologna that looks like salami and spread cream cheese on them roll them up and enjoy. It's Really GOOD!

Hey Everyone!

I haven't been around because I moved back to college for the spring semester in the last few days and didn't have access to the internet. So anyways. Three days ago I got another pound lost to 165. Today I reached 164.5! Yeah 6.5 lbs lost and never coming back! Haha! Hopefully I can do real good at college and continue the weight loss.

I had a goal to be at 164.5 on the 19th and I'm here a few days early so that makes me feel awesome! Everyone is so wonderful on here to me and I love all of your comments.

Talk to you all later!

Hey guys,

I'm having a great day today! It was the first day of classes and I had 8am linear algebra and 9:30 English. Not too fond of the English class but I'll just have to suck it up. Should be eating lunch here around 12:30.

So it was another losing day! I weighed in today at 163.5 making it a 1 lb loss from yesterday! Can't wait till I make it into the 150's. Hehe.

Well Keep up the great work everyone. I know you will all get to your goals!

Have a great day!

 

[rachiegrl6]

Well not the greatest day on weight, I went up a half a pound to 164.0 but its okay cause I'm supposed to be getting my period here soon, so I'm not too worried about it! Oh well, Just getting into the swing of classes! Be back on later to read journals.

You're right...it's probably just some water retention. Don't get discouraged...you're doing great!
