I can’t believe we’re already on the third week of January! This year is flying by!!! I’m discovering that my commitment to post weekly in this group is a good inspiration to keep me honest…and to keep me from eating things I shouldn’t. There were a few times this week that I thought about going through the drive-through for junk, but then I thought about the progress I’ve made and I thought about posting my weight here and I decided to pass the drive-through and opt for something a little healthier.
Apparently, passing up the drive-through paid off. I had another good loss this week. And I’m down more than 10 pounds so far!!! That’s huge!
Last Week’s Weight: 260.2
Today’s Weight: 256.4
Weight Lost This Week: 3.8
Total Weight Loss: 11.3
I hiked a few more times this week. While I still haven’t made it to the top, I’m getting a whole lot closer. I hiked with my 11 year old daughter one day and she was so encouraging. I literally had to stop every 5 minutes because I was so out of breath, but she kept telling me that I was doing great and to keep it up. She literally could have made it to the top, back down to the bottom, and back up to the top before I made it halfway up the mountain, but she didn’t. She stuck with me and encouraged me like crazy. I want her to grow up to be strong and healthy and I feel like this will help me set a good example. I want her to see me eating well and exercising regularly (even though it’s a struggle). Hopefully, she will never struggle with her weight, but if she does, I want her to know that she can do something about it.
I’m excited about what this year will hold and about finally reaching my weight loss goals!
