EG's Diary

I finally made it to my first mini goal. I was going for 236 but I made it down to 235 so hurray for me :hurray: I'm also excited to say I lost 4 inches around my waist! I was starting to get a little depressed because I hate what I've let myself become and now I feel like I've accomplished something. Even though I'm not even close to where I want to be, I'm happy that it's coming off.

My next goal is 232 by August 1st.

I'm one pound away from my second mini goal. I feel like I'm doing great. Tonight we are going out with friends and I'm a little nervous. To drink or not to drink....alcohol that is. I haven't really gone out with friends to a bar/club since before I got pregnant and that was almost a year ago. I woke up and got on the scale today and was so glad to see my weight that now I'm nervous to ruin it tonight. I get one "free day" but I'm not sure if I want to use it tonight or on Sunday. I guess I'll see when tonight comes what I decide to do.
 
Well I was stuck at 236 for the longest time and even though I haven't made it two my 2nd goal of 232, I'm only one pound away from it. I can taste it.
 
I am down to my 2nd mini goal of 232 this morning and I feel great. I have no idea if anyone reads this but I'm excited and 232 looks better when I can see it. Yippee for me......:hurray: I'm off to breakfast with my mother.
 
Hi cutie. I stop in and read when I have time, even if I don't always post. I'm sure you're looking great!

Been kind of quiet around here. Only recently piucked up a little bit it seems. Guess maybe lots of people involved in their summers.
 
Woo Hoo! I got on the scale this morning and it read 229. Yessss! I'm one pounds away from my mini goal of 228 and I'm finally out of the 230s. I'm getting there. :driving:

Well somehow I managed to get back up to 232. It's not TOM and I've been religiously counting calories plus exercising my butt off. The only thing that makes me feel better is thinking that muscle weighs more than fat and the pounds will eventually be melting off. The good news is, is that my inches are coming off so that makes me feel a little better.
 
I made it back down to 229 and last night me and my husband went to his dad's house because his brother came down from California to visit and I was pretty bad. I ate lasagne, pork ribs, drank a soda and then to top it all off I got hammered with my hubby, his brother, dad and my two best friends. We were playing drinking games, thank you very much. I'm so too old for that. It was fun though. I won't be doing that again for awhile. When I got on the scale this morning I was back at 231 but I'm not sad or mad. I'll be back down again before I know it. And since no one else reads this besides Karl. I'm sure he'll be proud. :coolgleamA:
 
Hi there, EG.

I see you post often in Karl's journal, so I thought I should stop in and say hello.

Not being dismayed by a slight uptick on the scale - that's good. You know that with a little effort it will go back down again.

I'm dealing with a bit of the same - just added on a couple of pounds - and am determined not to freak out.

Thanks. I will definitely keep that in mind.
 
Mini-Goal #3 has been met!! :hurray: I'm down to 228. Just keep going....just keep going....just keep going......:auto: I want more.....:driving:
 
I'm moving along just the way I've been wanting to since I restarted this journey on July 1st. The pounds continue to come off as well as the inches and even though I don't feel any different I can see the scale and look at the tape measure and it makes me feel better. I can't wait until other people start to notice and better yet when I'm able to. I'm really looking forward to that. Anyway, this morning at hit the scale weighing in at 226. Yay for me. I am extremely motivated. I even started walk/jogging. Apparently, according to About.com I can be a jogger in 8 weeks if I follow this plan they have. So I'm trying it out. We'll see how it goes.
