I have been walking my ass off quite literally! Its Friday so its time for a "weigh in " post so here goes nothin'. My life has again become about staying healthy, I walk every day, sometimes twice per day, once in the afternoon with my daughter and then again after dinner with the whole family and the dedication to the process is starting to pay off. I watch the scale pretty much daily and lately all its got to say to me is good things and I am breaking back into lower numbers which goes without saying is awesome.
This morning I stepped onto the scale and the number that flashed was 394.8 and that is 2.2 pounds less than last week and I'll take it. I walked 3.2 miles yesterday afternoon and then after dinner my daughter and I went on a ride together, we left early enough that I thought it wouldn't get dark out before we made it home but the fact is that its getting darker earlier so riding as the sun sets is how it goes. I decided to bring the Xcal out as its been a while that I rode that bike and I think for a while it will be my bike of choice for my evening rides, I forgot how fun that bike is to ride.
My new light is BRIGHT, that's a pitch black section and the image does not do the light this thing is throwing off justice.
I will continue to eat properly, walk my ass off and ride when I can until I get to my goal weight, After getting to my goal I will continue to do those same things and keep the weight off while expanding what I can do.
The only thing any of us can do is to keep pushing until our goals are reached because the other opinion is not that appealing and will surely lead to an early check out date and I just cannot let that be something that becomes a reality for me.
Thats all I got, 2 pounds gone and we'll keep on pushing.
As Ever

You're doing great! I do great for a few days and then I blow it by snacking too much. I did this last year when I trained for the half marathon too. SIGH
ReplyDeleteCongratulations! I'm glad to hear about your success and your excited feelings about continuing onward!! Keep it up!! :)
ReplyDeleteLosing two pounds is already a great progress. It's good that you just keep pushing and never give up!
ReplyDeleteI'm sure your daughter is proud to see you making the effort to take care of yourself. It is a good example you are setting, that if we are persistent, we achieve our goals.
ReplyDelete2 pounds off are a good thing. And I bet it's so rewarding to see them dissapear, acknowledging all the hard work you do in that regard.
ReplyDeleteYou have such a positive, inspiring attitude and I really like it. Congrats on the weight loss, let's keep pushing forward :)
ReplyDeleteHi, I just found your blog. I have read through several of your posts and am so glad I did. You're very inspirational.
ReplyDeleteWow! I just came across your blog yesterday and love it! You are doing amazing! I too am on a weight loss journey of a lifetime and all we can do it one day at a time. Way to go with your weight loss so far! Keep on pushing it and don't give up, you will get to your goal weight in no time! Feel free to read my story if you would life, I weighted 337 pounds at my heaviest.
ReplyDeleteOhh, man, that looks fun - I miss the days when I used to ride bikes! I dunno if I can bring myself to pick it up again, and have that tiny seat riding up my crotch; wife still wants to have more kids - haha! Anyway, man, mind blowing weight loss. You must be feeling amazing. I know what a difference it can make, when you get past that initial barrier that makes you think it's all too hard to begin with - once you break past that barrier, it feels like you can go on forever.
