Today was weigh day! IT WAS A GOOD ONE!

April 30th, 08
I’m STOKED! I lost 9.2 lbs! Can you believe it! This definitely makes up for last week of losing none! YAY ME! Now I weigh 288! I just can’t believe it. If you would have told me last summer that this spring I would weigh under 300 lbs I would have asked you what magic pill your going to give me because I was not ready for the work this was going to take. But God put my mind in a different place and helped me to deal with my miscarriages in a healthy way rather than the way I was which was internalizing everything and EATING a whole lot and not caring about myself! I am just so excited. I know your thinking who is excited about weighing 288 that is ridiculous but if you have reached a low of hitting 372.8 lbs than you will appreciate being under 300 and down to what I am today! I am just so thankful to my family and friends who have supported me…I love you all! And God number one giving me the strength! I have so much more to go but I just wanted to take the time to say how truly blessed I am! YAY! Now I’m just 15.2 lbs away from my 100 lb short term goal mark! Then we will start working on the next 100lbs! Gosh I never thought I would be able to say I have lost this much weight without pills or surgery, just healthy eating, exercise, God and supportive family and friends! WOOHOOO for 288!

Feeling great....

I was behind a couple weeks...so I'm now caught up!

April 17th, 08
Packing to go to Flint and I am so excited about it! Leaving tonight!


April 18th, 08
We are in Flint for the weekend celebrating my birthday and going to the “Laugh your way to a better marriage” conference. Today we spent time in the sun at the campground fishing and working out and just spent time together it was great!


April 19th, 08
This morning we went to the conference. After the conference we went back out to the camp ground and spent the day out there. Chris spent the day fishing and I did some too. I only caught one fish the entire time but that is okay the wait was worth it.


April 20th, 08
Its Sunday the day before my bday and we are going to the campground and having a cook out and spending the day out there. We went putt putt, fishing, and out on the paddle boats which was a work out. I got a crap load of sun and I’m loving it! YAY! What a great birthday weekend! I am so blessed. I even did good with what I ate I didn’t over eat although it was things that I don’t usually eat so I’m thinking the scale wont move much if at all this week!


April 21st, 08
Its my BIRTHDAY! But I have to work. Chris got me lunch today. And we drove home this morning. Gosh this weekend was so great. This is the best birthday I have had in a while! I love it! Thank you Lord!


April 22nd, 08
Well tomorrow is weigh day and I’m not looking forward to it because I didn’t over eat but just ate some things my body isn’t use to. It is okay though even if I don’t lose weight I wont be too upset about it this time. I will just work extra hard next week to get it off!


April 23rd, 08
So I predicted right, I did not lose weight. But like I said I am okay with it being it was my birthday week. I am going to bust my butt this week to get this fat off though.


April 24th, 08
My workout today was great. I just love working my butt off at the gym(literally). My workouts have been great. And my eating habits are so good now. God is just awesome.


April 25th, 08
Its Friday my day off! YAY! First I had a great workout. Then I went to lunch with Chels and to the huge farmers market in Elkhart. Then I cam home and got ready to go on my birthday date with my hubby! I spoiled myself and got ribs. But I got the small order and I actually split that dinner into 4 or 5 meals between the ribs and sweet potatoe I was set for meals throughout the next day which was nice. It was a great evening with my hubby!


April 26th, 08
Went to the gym with Chris which was great as usual. Great workout. I can’t wait for next weekend when we get to go to flint. I’m praying for nice weather so we can spend most of our time at the camp ground!


April 27th, 08
This weekend has been good! Busy with work but good. Getting all my workouts in and eating healthy. Although I have felt super hungry all weekend and feel like I have been eating non stop, but it seems to be working for me.


April 28th, 08
Monday morning! I just got back from a meeting at work. And now I’m gonna work out! I’m praying I hit my 80 lb mark this week. Which means I will have had to lose 4.4 lbs this week which I know is a stretch but I can do it especially since I didn’t lose anything last week I know I can pull this out….I have to! So time to go work out!

April 15th, 08
Not must to say today. I’m not looking forward to going to work but oh well. At least this week is my 3 day weekend which I cannot wait for! Tomorrow is weigh day and I’m praying it’s a good one!


April 16th, 08
Today I weighed and….I lost 3.6 lbs! I’m happy with that. Now I’m at a total loss of 75.2 lbs! God is soooo good! He has helped me through! No stopping here though must keep pushing on! Still a long way to go!

work work work....ugh!

April 14th, 08
I had 3 meetings at work today and 2 out of the 3 were not that great…but like I always say its just work. I mean I want to do my best, but I’m also not going to get upset over it either! Today was good. Had a good workout! Nervous about weigh day and praying I dropped below the 3s! Weigh day is coming soon!

weekend...

April 12th, 08
So I did it. I went back to the gym again last night and it was great. This time I did 90 minutes on the elliptical. Which put me at a total of 3 hours and 20 minutes of cardio…woohoo…who would have thought it! Today we didn’t go to the gym but I did do the biggest loser workout which is a killer every time! Well gotta go to work! God bless


April 13th, 08
Today we went to the gym and I got 80 minutes of cardio in on the elliptical. Then we came home had lunch and then I headed out the door to work. I just got home and I’m super tired so I’m going to bed! GOODNIGHT!

Killing it at the gym...who would have thought I would LOVE going to the gym this much!

April 11th, 08
Last night I worked with this woman who told me and I am her inspiration. That made me feel so good and just boosted me on this long journey I’m on! It was great. Today I killed it again at the gym. I spent 80 minutes on the elliptical and 30 on the bike. It was awesome! I felt so good about myself and the fact that I can do the elliptical for so long! It was just amazing! God has just been great to me! All is great! I’m actually thinking I’m getting ready to head out to the gym again and get a good swim in and stuff! Who would have thought I would WANT to go work out and 2 times in a day!
