The last weekly weigh-in

I finally hit my goal weight. As of today, I am .8 pounds below my goal weight, which is 5.8 pounds less than my pre-pregnancy weight. I am so excited! I already quit Weight Watchers, which was a huge help. I am still working out on a regular basis because I have that 15K coming up in April that I am training for. Well, thanks for coming with me on this journey. It was all the way back in September that I said I would lose 30 pounds, and it took me a while, but it finally happened. From the time I went into the hospital before I had Ezra, I've lost a total of 54.6 pounds (including a 6 lb. 14 oz. baby:). Slow and steady wins the race. I really think that for me it was all about accountability. So thanks everyone, for the encouragement along the way!

Weekly weigh-in

I lost a half pound this week. I'm just going to go out on a limb and say that I probably won't lose weight this week. I am headed to Austin/Georgetown at the end of the week for my sister-in-law Emma's baby shower. I won't be able to work out as much and I'll probably eat worse (or should I say better?) than I usually do. We'll see!

Weekly weigh-in

I stayed the same this week. Oh well. I worked out a lot but my diet wasn't the greatest. I guess I'll be trying harder this week.

Weekly weigh-in

I gained a little over a pound this week. I know I did what I was supposed to do as far as working out. I did the 30-day shred 4 times (even made it to level 3 and did that 3 times) and I ran 8.1 miles (the most I've ever run). It's annoying that I worked that hard as far as exercise goes and I still gained weight. I just didn't watch what I ate closely enough, and I realize that, and I realized it at the time. That's easy to do considering I only get about 1100 calories a day on the WW program. So I just have to be more diligent this week with watching my calorie intake and continuing my working out. On a good note, my clothes are starting to fit better, so even though I'm not losing as much weight as I would like at this point, I know I'm still on the right track. Just gotta get down to business. And, no more superbowl parties where sopapilla cheesecake is present.

Recipes to come later: strawberry cobbler and pork tenderloin with spicy honey glaze, both from the best light recipe cookbook.

Weekly weigh-in

I lost .8 lbs this week. I thought this was good considering I ate horribly, but I did work out a few times. I have 1.8 pounds to lose to get to my pre-pregnancy weight. Maybe I can do that this week. I can't wait until I am done with these weigh-in posts.

Also, I signed up for my first race. It is in a little less than two weeks. It's only 4 miles; I wanted to start out small since I've never done a race before. I'll let you know how it goes.
