Cutting It Close?

We arrived home on Saturday afternoon from our NC/FL trip. Since I hadn't stepped onto our "official" scale in almost 3 weeks, I was eager. After all, I ran 6-8 mornings while away and fared decently well on the food front (with exception to Grandma's obscenely good peanut butter fudge AND peanut butter cookies, not to mention Mom's Rice Crispy Treats--heavenly heavy on the marshmellows). Now that I think of it, I would have been happy if I just didn't GAIN any weight. I'm excited to declare that I blessed the scale with my 240.0 pound self this morning after running for 45 minutes. That leaves me with only 6.7 pounds to lose by September 1st!

I just can't seem to string together 2 consecutive weeks of weight loss anymore. I'm beginning to resign myself to the fact that losing 40 lbs before the end of August is becoming an unreachable goal.

I Can Do Better...

Not the Monday weigh-in I hoped for. I gained a bit from last week (up to 253.8), but am hoping to break 250 somewhere in the middle of the week.

Half Way There!

While Ashley usually updates our blog, I was too excited to wait for her to get home to have her let y'all know that I'm half way to my goal of 40 lbs! That's right, I weighed in at 253, which is 20.6 pounds lost. (woohoo)

Mid-Week update

Greg weighed in at 262.6 this morning!

As predicted, I've dropped 4 pounds since Monday. I weighed in at 262.6 this morning! I'll likely lose more by Friday, but will somehow weigh in at around 264 come next Monday morning!

Get Fit A Thon Update week 3

Monday morning weigh in...266.6

I was a bit discouraged last Monday after the scale showed that I had only lost 1 pound through the previous week. What was worse was that I had actually been down to 266 a few days before I weighed in at 267.2. I had a similar experience this week, as I was down to 263.0 (10.6 pound lost!) on Wednesday, but my weight today is 266.6. I may begin posting my mid-week weight as well, so the more accurate weight-loss picture can emerge. I’m confident that the diet and exercise regimen I’m on is working!

If you have the time, post a comment! I could use the encouragement, especially on Monday mornings!
