Life is sweet right now. Hubby is back in the groove and we are stronger than ever. He is very supportive of my goals but what man wouldn’t want his woman to be happy in her skin or thin thin thin! Being mad at him was a motivator in a strange way because I worked even harder to not eat junk and work out more. But now that we are getting along again, I want to be with him rather than get up early in the morning. I think I will drag out the old pics and post them everywhere I have to look. That will be my new motivation!

Right now I am at 233 and holding. I will need to change something in the plan to get off this hump. We had folks in last Sunday, grilled steaks, etc. and that has stalled this weeks drop, even tho I watched what I at and drank. But today is a new day, right! Usually the weekends are my best times because I can work out even harder. Maybe this weekend, rain will hold off, and I can take the kids for a ride on the bike path. That should add the extra that I need and give us some family time too!

6 more pounds to my mini goal which is the equivalent of 100 more to go. 6 sounds so much better than 100! Staying away from the Coke has been easier than imagined when i posted about it last time. I have changed to tea when I a m not drinking water, but at least I drink it unsweetened unlike the rest of the south where you have to pour a full cup of white sugar in for each cup of tea made!!

My significant other is still not so significant but the arguing (his part, mine is just listening and internalizing his BS) is acting better than any diet pill could and continues to help me drop weight. So I guess I will keep him around for the next 106 pounds and then kick him to the curb!

 Hope life is better for everyone else!

Okay, Giving up Coke will be the hardest part of this journey but it starts today. I take it intreveneously, they drive a truck up and plug me in! I am changing to just water but will do it a little slow to avoid the DTs withdrawing from the caffeine. But my goal is to try to drop to just one a day and then eliminate that one too. Have already had 60 ounces of water instead of 60 ounces of Coke today. Maybe I can hold off until supper time to have that one, but I do have the withdrawl headache already.

I didn’t need those 25 lbs! And I hope they haven’t disbursed into the atmosphere to stick on anyone else! Actually made it to the gym this morning and did 2 sets so lets hope that is a good forecast of the week to come. I really want to start getting up and running over there at 5:30 or 6 am. Hubby is still being an a** but it has been nice to cuddle in the morning or so that is my excuse for starting the day nt fighting with him. I think I’s rather go to the gym.

Hello, I just found this site and decided to give it a try. This is my first blog - ever, anywhere! Unfortunately, I have done this weight loss thing before then had more children and put the weight right back on. So here I am at 244 lbs, 46 years old, and looking at being single again. Time to do something right, for just me. I have already lost 23 pounds this month, joined the Y (been to orientation and back only once this month). I have promised myself to start going because I am paying for it whether I use it or not! I sure hope the friends and family I invited join along with me, even if they do not participate!
