Weightloss Update

Well, here I am again.... I weighed in today and I am down 24lbs at 220. I can't believe I let myself get this heavy. I can't believe I still have 21lbs to lose to get under 200lbs. I have never been this heavy before in my life. Now I will pay the price and have to put in the time and work to lose 24lbs at least 3x more. I am happy for all the weight I lost but disappointed that I let it get this bad. I feel like it is coming off so slowly compared to how quickly I gained it. But isn't that always the case.

Slowly but surely the weight is coming off...

Today I weighed in and I am down to 223. I have lost 21 lbs and got a great compliment from coworker. I am not going to stay this is anywhere near easy, but I am doing it, and I want to continue to make progress.

My goal weight

My current Weight

I bet everyone has been wondering what is going on with my diet...

Did you all think that I quit. Well I didn't, I have been working very hard to do great at this. I am currently at 225.4. I am down 18.6 pounds thanks to the Medical Weightloss Program (here in MI) and their fantastic motivating staff. They always keep me going and feeling good about myself. I have started getting rid of clothes that don't fit. I don't want anything around to fall back on. I exercise 4 times a week doing things like arobic walking, yoga, palates, and kick boxing. I am taking vitamins and drinking all my water.... something I never did on my other eating plans. So... so far so good.

Working hard to stay on top.

I had a really hard couple of days last week but made it through the weekend with little trouble. I am working hard to stay at it and do the right thing and get healthy. I weighed in today and lost another 2lbs putting me at 231. 32 pounds from now I will be feeling really awesome about all the work I have been putting in (hopefully at least). Breaking that 200 mark will really mean something to me!

So...I haven't been posting as often as I had planned

Part of the reason I haven't been posting is because I am tired of thinking about what I am eating. My weight today is 233. I am down 11 pounds since I first started and that is very impressive. I am now onto the real eating plan. Limited starches, dairy, proteins and fruits. This has been a really hard change for me, but I have been dedicated and diligent. I have not cheated at all... however I have thought about it. I still can't seem to cure that internal craving for "bad" foods. It isn't that I am hungry or even unsatisfied. I just want the experience of eating comfort foods. This is something I will always struggle with.
