I fell of the band wagon.... AGAIN!!!

I have been asked a few times, "when are you going to post on your blog again?" My response is I have nothing to blog about, I am not following any diet or eating plan. I don't want to be full of excuses, but LIFE HAPPENS!! But after seeing pictures of myself at my cousin's wedding this weekend I realize that I NEED TO DO SOMETHING AND SOON!! My dad gave me about 3 weeks of his Medifast food (He has lost about 50lbs on it in the last 4 months) I am going to start this and after the 3 weeks keep the same routine with regular food. It is too expensive for me to buy their food, although I would love to do this until I reach my goal weight! I will start blogging again when I start this plan. I am hoping to start in a week and a half. (August 9th) I want to wait until after my anniversary.

Here we go again :)

Week 3 weigh in

Ok so I lost 1lb since last week. That means I am still up 1lb. I think that it is due to my period. So we will see what happens next week. I made myself a mini goal today as I was walking... I want to loose 6lbs by my birthday, that leaves me 17 days. I believe I can do it. So I vow to you all to exercise 3-4 times a week, drink only water and Crystal Lite, NO SWEETS!!, and to stick to my diet!!! I can do this :) After I meet this goal I will give myself another small goal.

I went for a walk today!! 2 miles in 45 minutes, that is 5 minutes faster than the last time!!! Please call me, message me, or FB me to see how I am doing. I will continue to post weekly results.

LOVES, Holly

Week 2 weigh in

I gained 2lbs this week. We were traveling this weekend and it was hard to be good while on the road. We will plan ahead this weekend so that we don't have a repeat!! On top of that Elijah got pink eye on Sunday and is still out of school. I am hoping that he can return tomorrow. Only 8 days left for him! He is excited, but more excited to start first grade. It will be here before he knows it. I have been doing good these last few days eating wise. I just need to make sure I get in all my water. I think that it is suppose to rain the rest of this week, so I won't be able to get a walk in. When are we suppose to have summer weather??? I am tired of this every other day crap!!! PLEASE GOD bring the sunshine!!!

Week 1 weigh in

I have lost 4lbs and 1 inch off my waist this last week :) Erik lost 3lbs and 1 inch as well. I had a better day controlling my hunger yesterday. I am not sure if it had to do with the weight loss and knowing that this is working or if I just knew it was Monday. Weekends are harder especially when you veg out at home all weekend.

I have decided not to blog everyday. I will definitely blog on weigh in days and try to do at least 2 more during the week so you know how I am doing. It is just getting really tough to remember to do this every night.

Have a great week!

Today I was busy cleaning for company and at the last minute I found out that she couldn't make it. We rescheduled for next week, but now I get to enjoy a clean house while it lasts. Although that won't be long. As I type I have spongebob paper all over the living room and bathroom! It didn't even last an hour :) I spent the evening catching up on some shows and making tutu's.
