I weighed in today. Guess what my friend the scale said?? 189.8!!!!!!! Hooray! I am back in the 180's. I am no longer in the 190s! It feels so freaking good!! I can't believe I started this blog over a year ago. My first post was December 3rd, 2010. In that year I have become a new person, I feel. Maybe not entirely, but health/eating wise. I have lost a total of 25 lbs and kept it off, for the most part. Sure, I gained weight over the holidays (who doesn't) and now it's finally off and I know that Christmas 2012 is going to have to be different. I am continuing to learn how/when/what to eat and what my body needs as far as exercise goes. There was a point in time where I just didn't really care. Mostly, I am feeling better about myself. I look thinner and I want to get even smaller. My goal is 170lbs. As of today I have 19 lbs to go. If I keep up my eating, the way I have been, I could be there by June 29th. Oh how I'd love to be there by the summer!! Hello, new wardrobe!! :o) Not only do I want to weigh 170 lbs, but I want to be toned. I have been doing a lot of arm work with weights, but I am not sure how to tone my legs properly. I have always had a lot of muscle in my legs and I am afraid that if I work them out too much, I will get She-Hulk sized thighs! LOL I want to that "long & lean" look, which I am reading is acheived by light weights with several reps. So that is what I am doing. 5 lbs weights with at least 3 sets of 15 reps per exercise. I am going to try and see if I can accomplish this goal of losing another 19 lbs in 19 weeks. So today is my start day!
Start date: February 17, 2012
End date: June 29, 2012
Starting weight: 189 lbs
