OKAY FEELING BETTER!!!

Yesterday I had major stomach pains, bloating and cramps. I have been bloated for nearly 2 weeks. Bloating makes it hard to eat a lot. That is the good thing, the bad thing is it was very uncomfortable. And nothing changed on the scale.
So even as of yesterday I was stalled on my weight, I am happy to report, Upon stepping on the scale I had lost 3 more pounds.....no bloating today!

I am so happy about that. Only 7 pounds away from my goal!
I have a choice here, do I step up my loss by loosing faster so that I can be down to my goal by January 1st OR do I just keep one pound a week and say that the Middle of January will suffice?
I think a pound a week is great!

Honestly, you'd think with the Holidays coming I would be tempted to splurge on my Calories.
I'd love to believe me!
The food (treats) look so good and smell so good but they are not enjoyable anymore.
I can have one bite or maybe two (or a small piece) then I shutter and am done.
I haven't forgotten what it all tastes like, even my favorites do not tempt me like they should.

What I am happy about, is this, come January 1st I will not have to put into my head or on paper a New Year's Resolution. LOOSE 22 pounds. I get to actually do something I want.

I will say this, today I am going to eat and eat! Because I can, then I will be sure to work out tomorrow, and go back to my plan tomorrow. I think I can afford one day!

Happy Thanksgiving!!!!

I am stuck!!

Haven't lost anything for a while. I have been very distracted by other events, some of which I will get you updated on....haven't gained though. I'll take that.
Now, back to focus on my goal. 

Celebration anyone?

I will be posting the events of the last couple of weeks. But as of today for a matter of time I am going to report.
I have lost 12 pounds. This week was a rollercoaster though, I think I have been a bit bloated, I had thought that I was not loosing anymore then were I was, not that I am complaining reallly because 10 pounds still felt like a success. My goal was 22 though. so I am only 10 pounds away.

I stepped the scale today after seeing no change and saw 2 pounds go like that. I must have been retaining water or something. I feel a lot better any way today. I have felt a little sick and tired. I know this is too much information. But I want to report my progress. Accountability has made me want to report my success. Gives me Motivation. That is the key for me! Thanks for tracking with me. I have lost not only the pounds but I have lost 6 inches in my hips and 5 inches in my waist!! I only have one pair of pants that fit, and they are getting too loose. Time to see if I have some put away. I doubt it though, This is the smallest I have been since having kids. We won't talk about before that! I will be posting updates on my family in a bit. This post is just faster!!! So it is easy to keep up on!!

Good luck ladies!!
