I have lost 6.6 pounds since July 12th. Last Monday when I weighed in there was a 0.6 loss. I was fine with it because it was a loss and I reviewed what I had done that week and decided what I needed to change/work on. Today I had a 2.2 loss. The things I changed worked.
This week I am really gonna focus on eating breakfast. It is so hard for me. I just tend to not really be hungry and lately, I have mentally wanted to save calories/points for later in the day and not "waste" it on breakfast. I know this mentality is TOTALLY WRONG. I HAVE to eat breakfast to jumpstart my metabolism and wake it up. I need to find some simple, calorie/point friendly ideas. I think part of my problem last week is that I was sick of Multi-grain Cheerios every morning. Any ideas would be helpful!!!

Anticipation
I am excited and nervous to weigh in tomorrow morning. I stuck to my points and made good food choices but you just never know. I could have had too much salt and retained water...just so many things could effect the number that shows up on the scale. I am just hoping for a loss although even without one, I will be sticking to this LONG TERM.
I have a picture hanging on my motivation board that looks at me everyday willing me to become the person I was in that photo. It is one of my engagement pictures and I can't wait to get back to that ~ or at least close. I can tell in the way my clothes are fitting that I am losing weight and it makes me excited and motivated to keep going. This is a marathon, NOT A SPRINT.
This week I am gonna experiment on workout routines that would work longterm into my schedule. I was lucky enough to get a treadmill for cheap and I need to put it to good use. Even just walking on it for 30-60 minutes would make a HUGE difference. It is just finding a time that my girls won't try to climb on with me ~ espcially my baby! I will let you know how it goes this week and tomorrow when I weigh in....wish me luck!!! :)
