I WILL TAKE IT!

I weighed myself today and I LOST .6 pounds (.27 KG) this week for a grand total of 109 pounds (49.44 KG). This week was Thanksgiving so I think having ANY loss is GREAT! Although I did not gorge myself, I definitely ate things which are normally not part of my menu. I did have a MAJOR victory this week, I actually worked out the morning of Thanksgiving and I have NEVER done that! I was sooooo proud of myself! While some of my dishes were in the oven, I told Frank to watch the oven because i was going to shoot over to the gym and work out! I must say, starting my Thanksgiving day with a workout definitely made a difference in my overall mentality that day. I seemed more focused to do well and not "enjoy" myself too much. I ate sensibly and even had a piece of pumpkin pie! So although I never am super thrilled to report less than a pound for a week's weight loss, I am not going to complain becuase it was a holiday and every drop in the bucket counts! I went Black Friday shopping for the FIRST and LAST time and at 4am, while in line at Kohl's, I ate half of a Ghiradelli Peppermint Chocolate Bar! I miscalculated the calories because my brain was not working at that time the day. I thought half the bar was 120 calories but it really was 220 YIKES, maybe that is what did it..who knows but like I said before, every drop in the bucket will eventually lead me to an overflow and that is what I am looking forward to!

I was talking to a co-worker and she is this tiny little thing who weighs only 100 pounds, and I basically have lost a small person off of my enormous ass! I lost a small person, when you compare it that way, you can really get an idea as to how much thinner I actually am today! My next goal is to get to a loss of 115 pounds....I WILL DO IT!!! Thanks for reading!

Gobble Gobble

I weighed myself this week and I LOST 2.4 lbs (1.09 KG) for a total of 108.4 lbs (49.17 KG). I am back on track for sure! In addition to working out at my usual gym, I bought a punch card for Kingley Health. This is a unique gym in that EVERYONE that works there is an Exercise Physiologist and it helps me go for that extra strength training day over the weekend! Oh and Frank has been joining me! He even said we should go one more day too, so I am trying to figure out the best schedule that will hopefully spark a fire under his ass and that wont conflict with my gym schedule at my regular gym. I am open to suggestions, if anyone has any?? Well this week is Thanksgiving and I am going into it with a game plan, or should I say an eating plan so that next Tuesday reflects a loss!

On another note, I bought a pair of jeans a month ago and already they look like clown pants, and although this makes me feel amazing, it is really annoying to have to keep spending money on clothes when I am not RICH! I spoke to my doctor and she wants me to go for a Hystersonogram next month, so hoping that it all turns out well...In honor of Thanksgiving, I would like to take a moment to thank our Lord for all the blessing sin my life: My adoring husband, my family & friends, a job that I really enjoy going to, my health, a great church, and I am sure there is soooo much more but I am really sleepy this morning! Have a very HAPPY THANKSGIVING, and let's not forget the many blessings in ALL of our lives that sometimes, we forget about because of our crazy hectic days! Thanks for reading!

Back On

I weighed myself this morning and I LOST 1.4 pounds (.64 KG) for a total of 106 pounds (48.08 KG). I would have liked to have been lower than this ONLY becuase I had the gain last week...HOWEVER, I will take it and just keep moving forward. On a typical week I would be THRILLED at a 1.4 loss so I am trying to keep that in my mind.

I am actually more concerned about the fact that I got my period again this week and I don't understand what is happening to my body since the surgery (Alien Baby removal surgery not the band!) I put a call into my doctor to see what is up. I will keep you posted on that...

SO NOT PROUD OF MYSELF TODAY!

Well I had a VERY TOUGH week this week. It was Halloween and I ATE some chocolate! By some, I really mean 4 snack size bars PLUS one regular sized chocolate bar! I also had a baby shower filled with nothing good for me as well as a dinner party with a main dish that, although DELICIOUS, not figure friendly! Oh and at the party, there were tons of sweets that I definitely tasted as well! So with that introduction, all I can say is that I weighed myself today and I GAINED 2.2 pounds(1 KG) I have lost a total of 104.4 pounds (47.36 KG). The ONE TRIUMPH that I had this week was that on Thursday, I did a 1 hr boot camp class followed by a 1 hour spin class. I have NEVER pushed my body that hard in my entire life! So I had a really bad week and all I can say is that today is a NEW day and I am back on track and I hope that next week will show a loss and this will be just a minor detour in my journey to seeking my thin self! Thanks for reading!

Just Keep Swimming!!

I weighed myself today and unfortunately I STAYED THE SAME! I have lost a total of 106.6 pounds (48.35 kg). I had my period this week and I feel like I am retaining water so that is definitely part of it. The other part of it could be that yesterday there was a party at school and I had a piece of the MOST DELICIOUS CAKE EVER!!! It was sooooooooooooooooooooooooo good and I ENJOYED every bite...The positive thing was that I looked up the calories when I got home and took my ass to the gym and did not leave until I BURNED OFF EVERY LAST BITE! I guess that is a success because I don't think the old Keli would have even bothered trying to even things out! I did my measurements this week and I have lost 4 more inches off of my body (10.16 cm) with the largest loss being from my waist and hips! I have lost a total of 55 inches (139.70cm) which I am pretty sure is the total height of a small Asian man! Anyway, this week I have a baby shower to go to and I have a doctor's appointment during one of my scheduled workouts so I am going to have to be EXTRA diligent writing down every morsel that enters my mouth..I AM COMMITTED TO LOSING THE REST OF THIS WEIGHT...HERE I COME!!!! Off to work, thanks for reading!
