Love My Scale

Weighed in this morning at 220.8 lbs. :D <-- my face right now after doing a happy dance. lol I'm almost half way there and only 4 months left to go before the end of the year to hit a 50 lbs loss. Well I'll be happy if I hit 200 lbs by the end of the year. So I am making that my secondary goal for the year. That way I should, no I will reach one of my goals this year for weight loss.

Should I be happy that I have a hard time keeping my pj bottoms to stay up? lol Just means they are getting to big for me and I like knowing my clothes are getting to big for me - gets me closer to my shopping spree that I will eventually have to do. :) Have a good day everyone. :)

Exciting news :)

Well I am no longer sick. My recheck was today and everything is back to normal. :) But that's not my exciting news - My only brother got his wife pregnant -I'm gonna be an AUNT!!!! I do have a few neices through my step-brother but this is my first flesh and blood neice or nephew. So I am really excited about it. :)

Weighed in this morning at 222.8 lbs. Still not bad considering the amount of water I have had to drink over the last few days. But I'll take it. Its still down from where I was before and that's all that counts for me. :) Well gotta get going to bed. More later hopefully if I am not too busy folding clothes tomorrow and this weekend.

So being sick has some advantages :P

Again I find myself sick and losing weight. Weighed in this morning at 221.6 lbs according to my scales. Still feel like crap and to top it all off I think I am allergic to the meds they gave me. Its just turning out to be a great week so far. LOL

Well my throbbing headache says my time at the comp is done for the day. More later in the week once i feel better enough to sit her longer.

Not a UTI

well I have a bladder infection and possible kidney infection. ouch. lots of pain so i am resting a lot. and on meds now for it. hopefully it clears up in a week and doesn't get worse.

Well today I weighed in at 224.4 lbs. down some but not all the extra weight I had added by pigging out the other weekend. Of course this past weekend we had a family reunion - on my mom's side - the italian side. So of course there was pasta, pasta, pasta and really good cookies. But I didn't do too bad with eating. I had some spaghetti salad as it was the only pasta there at first. Then I went back and got some lasagna later because you never pass up the lasagna at the reunions! My biggest downfall was not drinking enough water and drinking too much pop all weekend.

Between not enough water all weekend and developing a UTI my week hasn't started out too great. But i am suffering through with cranberry juice - yuck.

Week update

Well this past weekend my hubby decided to be nice and buy pizza. After not having carbs for so long ............ I pigged out. lol And went from being 222.0 to 226.6 lbs in two days. uggghhhhhh. So I haven't been back cuz if I don't write it, it didn't happen right??? A girl can dream. :) So this morning back down to 223.6 lbs. I am basically up 1.6 lbs from last friday. Not too bad, but then I think "you could be down 1.6 lbs..........." And I have to tell myself to shut-up then. lol

But I am getting back on track now and I liked seeing that scale going down too much to go back to old habits and stay there. I was wearing a pair of shorts earlier this week that normally would be tight on me. And have been that way since I bought them about 5 years ago. But here is the kicker - even with gaining the weight back they were still loose on me the day I wore them. :) So I guess maybe I should measure myself again to see how much of a difference there is that way too. I've been too lazy to do it yet. :P For those of you praying for my Dad - he is home now and seems to be doing good. Thanks again. :)
