Week 45 Weigh-In
Current Weight - 239.2 lbs.
This week's loss - 0.2 lbs.
Total loss - 78.4 lbs.
Well I managed to eek through the holidays with a slight loss. To be honest, I was really surprised that it wasn't a gain.
Driving back from Alabama on 12/30 I was really tired, so I kept myself awake by snacking on a ton of Pringles and Hershey's Kissables. Yeah, not good. On 12/31 I was back on track until that night when I somehow rationalized that everyone else on the planet was celebrating with food, so why wasn't I? And...you guessed it...more Pringles.
Today is day 3 of the year and things have been going well for '07. There are, however, some things I really need to work on... I need to start going to bed earlier and I really need to push myself more on the exercise front.
I started back on the C25K program this morning with Week 1 and it was rough. Ugh...why did I stop for the holidays? I'll be paying for that mistake for a while.
I recently joined a weightloss group on YouTube called Gut2Cut. If you aren't familiar with that group, or YouTube, you should check it out! Gut2Cut is a whole group of people like us who are trying to lose weight. You can find me there as ShrinkingMom. I just posted my very first video if you want to see it. :-)
Before I go I want to thank Marietta, Cactusfreek, ~Jen~, Celtic_Girl, Susie, and Lynn for your wonderful comments on my last two posts. You guys are so nice and you help to keep me honest! :-D

Jen,
Good job over the holidays. I also am a mom on a weight loss mission. I am working on running as well. My workout partner and I just did the Seattle 1/2 marathon,we walked it, not ran, it was amazing and we are hoping to do a full marathon in June, so keep up the hard work. I have the exercise down, but the food is my problem. I look forward to coming back to follow your journey. Keep up the good work!

I love the youtube videos -- I just might join also. The tip on how you measure out your salad dressing is very handy - thanks!

You are right. Any loss is a good thing. Getting back on track is so hard.

You walked a 1/2 marathon? Wow! That's impressive! I know what you mean about the food/exercise thing. Once I get one part under control, the other slips away. Thanks for stopping by!
