Losing It – 7/23/2010

Well pepps, I had a better week this week. I must have lost most of what I gained last week and I am only up .4 from 2 weeks ago. After that week I had I am surprised it wasn’t worse! :)
 
I did pretty good with my goals, I worked on the Link & Balance concept, Kept my food journal up to date and kept within my meal plan! Woot! I am still really struggling with getting workouts in so that is going to be my PRIMARY focus this week. At least 15 minutes. I would rather do 60, but hey, baby steps. :) I am attempting to lose 2 lbs. this week.
We have a busy weekend planned, with a lot of food choices out of my control but I am hoping to make good choices. :)  
 
What is your primary goal for the week?
 
STATS:

 

Beginning Weight: 251.1
Last Weeks Weight: ??? – Previous Week 7/9: 240.0
Today’s Weight: 240.4
Loss to Date: 10.7 lbs.
Weekly Loss: +.4

 

Last Weeks Goals
#1. Link & Balance Food – staying 1500 to 1900 calories, cutting carbs – (about 75% on this)
#2. Consistently Journal Food- 6 out of 7 days!
#3. Exercise 7x for 15 minutes minimum (Per Dr. orders) Poor!!! Only did this 1 day!
#4. Meal plan & stick with it. – Did pretty good with this. Didn’t eat out once because of laziness or lack of planning, we only ate out when it was scheduled because of obligations.
#5. Reduce Soda- Down to 3 sodas for the week & 2 of them were diet
#6. Reduce refined sugar – so, so. I am definitely thinking about it, but have HORRIBLE cravings for it too!

    GREAT on the food journal! That is a HUGE step. So proud of you. And only three sodas!! Whoop!!! Get those gone and I'm telling you the refined sugar cravings will be better.

    Let me say this…once I had the refined sugar out of my regular diet for over a week, the cravings truly disappeared. However, when I would eat sugar, I'd want more sugar. It's a VICIOUS cycle. Push hard through it and you will come out so much better on the other side.

    So proud of your hard work. TOGETHER we will lose 2 pounds each this week!!

    I'm so impressed with your commitment and dedication. And with your detail! I think you have a wonderful plan going and steadily working toward your goal. You should be very proud of yourself!!

    You're doing super! That soda thing is the pits but you did so well this week! Sugar is such an addiction as I so well know. Is Myrilla ready to roll yet? Every little success makes the next one easier! Love you and rooting for you!
