down again!

I am so happy about being down again!

250.8 down .2!!!!

I can not wait to be out of the two fifties! One more week.

I am not sure where I was when I started blogging it but my highest weight ever was February of this year 262.2 so my total weight loss is 11.4 lbs.

What a great day!

HA!

I didn't deserve this... 185. Down one pound. It is probably because I haven't eaten or drank anything since yesterday afternoon. I won't cheat this weekend. I won't cheat this weekend.
Just a thought... Does anyone ever end up cheating accidentally. I do. I don't even realize what I have done till it is done. Maybe it is just me being an airhead. But I like to think since I have been eating so bad for so long I have to train to get into health mode and it takes a while. I sometimes will just forget all about it and then realize, oh no, I just ate all my points. This next time I go to the grocery store though I will be in health mode and that is going to make all of this a heck of alot easier. Love you all.

Just A Thought

I was thinking yesterday about WHY it is so hard to do this. And I realized, if I put as much time and energy into my health as I do school, I would reach my goal in no time. Knowing this doesn't make it any easier though. I wish I had some one to kick my butt every day and teach me everything I needed to know about being healthy. I wish there were a college class called Kick My But 101.

I will try to think of my health as graded and that I MUST get an A. Maybe that will work.

Hello girls,
I think I am safe to say that since it just seems to be down to girls now:) so I said I would start posting again and I didn't but that is what happens when you move, go on vacation the next week and then have to unpack a house. But I have been better about what I have been eating. I started counting and writing down points last week. I weigh in tomorrow. I'm nervous. I was so weak this weekend. I kept telling myself "oh you'll be fine, you did so good at the beginning of the week" ALWAYS my biggest mistake!!! that and not writing all my food and points down. but last week I was down to 186 from being 188.8 the previous month. I also wrote down over 50 reasons why I should lose weight. I did not know there were so many. and I as I think of more I write them down. I took a picture of the list on put it on the background of my phone to help me remember and hung the actual list next to my vanity in my room. Lets hope that helps me make some better decisions.

nancy's thursday

Okay so Thursday i missed my official weigh-in because I had 3 doc appointments.

I do have a weight from Dr. Dayton's office

I know that the different scales can be slightly different calibrations but I am happy about the loss.

See you next week.

Ah Crap

Ok so i gained 2 lbs this week. HOW SAD! I know you were all rooting for me, I was rooting for me. I thought weight watchers saved me.

235
237

Looking back over the week I thought I was good. Some big things I have to change though. For 1 I do not think I need flex points. They are just an excuse for me to pig out. I'm only going to give my self 10 flex points. Also I ate quite a few things this week that I was unsure about the points so I just guessed. I am all for a law that says all food sold should have nutrition information on it, even restaurants. So I will have to do something about that. Also I didn't know I was supposed to move down a point because of the 10 lb threshold. So now I have 29 points.
I think with a few tweaks, I can get right back on track.

:) No hope lost.

It has been 3 weeks since I weighed in at 251.6
Today I weighed at 252.2

I was up .6 but I thought it would be much worse.

I am glad to be where I am. I have not been able to use the treadmill because I hurt my foot so I have not lost any hope for a better week next weigh in!

See you all then.

It WORKS!

I have been following the WW program to a T. Well you all were right. It works!
Last weeks weigh in....241
This weeks weigh in .....235!

Is it bad that I wanted more? Ha ha. Well I made the mistake of weighing myself 3 days into it and I had lost 5 lbs so I expected another 5 lbs. Ha ha I am totally good with 6 lbs total.

I am going to stay with this and see what happens. I feel great! I am not even hungry and it's way better than counting cal.

Love Shannon

I haven't weighed in

Well Last week on Thursday I was out of town. This week on Thursday I was not able to attend the ww meeting for a weigh in. I don't have a scale so I haven't weighed in in two weeks! I didn't forget about the blog I just don't have anything to post till next week. See you then.

It's gonna work...

Hi I'm Shannon. I know I know I asked everyone to be brave and post no matter what. I admit I kinda gave up. Not on loosing weight but on posting about it. I guess I felt like I was going no where each week and I feel pathetic. I'm not going to moan about migraines or stomach pains any more (my stomach is getting much better thanks to NO FRUCTOSE).

So... It's time to get with it. Suzi convinced me to try Weight Watchers. I am so leery, because I'm stubborn and think that I can do it with out some one telling me what to do. But she promises me it will work. And truthfully, I can't do it by myself. So I am giving WW a try and so far... I love it. It's easy. But we will see next week if it works, because I am following it to a T.

I weigh 241. Yeah WOW!
