Hi all-
Haven't been here in a while, thought I would jump back on the bandwagon.
In 2007, I lost 50lbs doing WW and exercise. Then in 2008, I pretty much maintained that, even though I still needed to lose another 50 lbs. In 2009, I started training for my first two half marathons, a local race and the Disney Half. After the half marathon, we went on a cruise for a week.
So last Monday when I weighed myself I was up 18 lbs from my lowest weight.
Today I started back on WW points, will implement exercise plan on Monday. My goal is to get from 180 where I am right now to 150 by mid May when I start training again for the DL Half Marathon. I intend to be at my goal of 125 by November 18, my 40th birthday.
So there it is, my WW plan. I haven't read all 150 pages of this thread, but seeing some of the successes of those recently is inspiring.
Sounds like you have a fantastic plan! WOW a half marathon.....when I get to the point that I can do one I will be REALLY excited. For me it is just one day at a time. Seems to be working so far.
Some of my obstacles over the weekend were:
hubby and I took my daughter (10) and her best friend to the movies. Well I love my movie popcorn douced in butter....YUMMY!!! So instead of getting my own my hubby got a small and I got a small cup and had a cup of that with no butter. Not quite as good, but still gave me something to snack on during the movie without feeling like I was losing out.
I also went out with one of my friends to dinner on Saturday night! We had mexican......well I love mexican too. I usually have a chimichanga it comes with rice and extra cheese and a little bit of lettuce and tomatos. Well I ordered it without the extra cheese without the rice and with extra lettuce and tomatos, AND I only ate half.
I really feel like I have finally conquered this whole "food demon" thing. I guess when people said "Don't live to eat; eat to Live" is really true. I don't find myself wondering during the day what is the next thing I'm going to eat. Thanks everyone for letting me come here and get this all out!!!
Thursday is not too far away!!! Have a great week everyone!
