It's been over a month since my last post. Much has happened. My husband's med board came back and he will be officially medically retired from the navy in a month or two. We are waiting for approval on his submitted retirement date so he can start job hunting and we can figure out if we need to move. Lots of stress but we are getting through it. This month I start organizing and cleaning like crazy, want it done before my mom comes to visit next month for Bubba's birthday. Still wrapping my head around he fact he will be two!
So, all this stress and I'm still on track. I'm actually at a 26 pound loss now! That's 9.9% of my starting weight. I'm still amazed. I see little changes and my clothes are getting huge, this is actually working. Eating right and working out does work. Who knew? Besides everyone that is. It seems so simple, and it is. A little elbow grease and in 2 months I have undone 2 years of weight gain.
Dec 26th 2012 259lbs
Jan 28th 2013 242lbs
Feb 07th 2013 240lbs, first mini goal met!
Feb 28th 2013 233lbs
I set up mini goals for myself every 20 pounds. The first was actually only 19 pounds and I got a new cd and water bottle for my efforts. For hitting 220 I plan on getting a heart rate monitor. Do I know how to party or what?
