Oct 15 2009 11:16

I'm back on track and doing well, w00t!

Started - 181.4

Now - 138.4

Thats a total of 43 pounds down!  I cant believe i've lost that much!

First Goal: 170 by May 5th - Reached April 22nd!

Second Goal: 160 by the end of June - Reached May 27th!

Third Goal: 150 before the beginning of fall semester - Reached July 5th!

Fourth goal: 140 by Samhain (Halloween) - Reached October 11th!

Fifth goal: 130 by my birthday (December 1st)

So I have about a month and a half left to lose 8.4 pounds.  I'm hoping i can do this.  I've found people to DDR with, so i should be getting more exercise.  Today i have swimming and i'm walking between main and west campus, so while its not much at least i'll be a little active.  My only bump in the near future is i'm going the the renn faire saturday, but i dont mind indulging a little.  Its one of my favorite places for delicious food and i dont feel any reason to deprive myself.  With the end of my weight loss journey so near i feel very relaxed about it.  I know i can and will make it, and time matters a little less now that i'm in good health and certainly very happy with my body.

Now i'm in the 30th week and still hovering around 138.4.  I'm pleased that i have stayed in the 130s for a few days and also with how i look now.  I definitely feel i am doing well. 

Oh, i checked my state ID out of curiousity the other day and it said 137 for weight on there.  I remember fudging the numbers a bit when i got it because i thought i was likely a bit higher, but either way thats become a bit of a mini goal for me.  Also my mother is at that weight and has been encouraging and supporting me and cheering me on to get to her weight.  So i'm very very much looking forward to seeing 137 on the scale.  I know my mother has struggled hard to be healthy and wants to lose a little more weight herself to bring down her cholesteral.  I know her encouragement has helped me so much and i hope seeing me get to my goal will help her with the motivation to get to wherever she wants to be.  So 137 and beyond here i come!
