My Journal

Saturday, Jan 26, 2002

Well, I did have some entries in my journal before I accidently removed them or rather, er, saved over them. Oh well, I had my second weigh in today and I am so tickled since in two weeks I have lost a little over 6 pounds. Started my third week today and am ready to kick butt and take names again! I am finding that I love going to the gym although I only did the treadmill and bicycle this week, and I think I am going to start with the weights again next week. Anyway, off to the next week I go!

Well, tommorow is the big day, the day of weigh in! Ugh, I really hope that I lost some. I stuck to program really well and even did a lot more moving so I guess the moment of truth will tell. I guess I am feeling a bit anxious about this week. The first week I lost so well and I lost the second week as well but not as much as the first, so I think that is why I am a bit nervous. I am trying to stay optimistic. Anyway, time will tell! Will write again tommorow.

Had third weigh in today and was a bit disappointed at the -1.4 pound lost..at first. Then I realized I need only 2.4 more pounds to go to make it to my 10 pound mark. I know what I did different this week and do plan on doing better. For one thing I did not get my water in like I had been at first. Another is that I did not get any where near my allowances for fruits and veggies. I think that has to be the biggest part in the drop in my loss. But still a loss is a loss is a loss, right? I am still 7.6 pounds closer to my goal and that is what counts. On to the next week I go!

Having a good day today. Had a good work out and am right on target with program. Hoping against hope to get that 2.4 off this week, but hey, if it doesn't happen this week, then it will happen eventually!

I have to admit this has not been an easy week. I have PMS and I never realized how hungry I felt during this time. I made a mistake and went over points the other day, figured it was ok, I would just have to make sure to pay closer attention. But honestly, I have been very close to the max points alloted. I have had a lot of other things going on to that doesn't help, but that is life and I am just going to have to learn that no matter how the week is going, I still have to do my best to stay on program because this is for me! One very good thing I did this week was accomplished a goal I had set for myself. I wanted to drink enough water to cover half my weight in ounces and so far, I have been able to do it! Anyway, tommorow will be a real test since my dh is having surgery and I may have to eat lunch at the hospital. Oh well, one more day 'til weigh in!

Well, had a very small loss this week but I did start my monthly pain in the butt yesterday so at least I didn't gain during this time like I usually do. I sort of took a break from program today trying to jolt my body into letting go of the fat as I go head first tommorow. Oh well, here is to hoping for a better loss next week!
