152 by December 18!!

I decided that I need to set a solid mini goal for myself. As my title says, I want to be 152 by December 18. Why is that date important? Well it is the date that I will be arriving in Guatemala to see my boyfriend and his family (we will not have seen each other for 2 months). I think that this goal is fair, it is based on roughly .5 pound weight loss a week. I am hoping that with the weight, inches will go too! Follow me to my mini goal:

Nov. 16 (GOAL 155) met! 154.2

OFF TO WOW HIM :) RDU to GUA 6:00am!!!

----------------------------------------
---------------------- I am trying to really push myself and I am hoping to break through to the next level (I am hoping that level will include a flat stomach). My weight is not so much what bothers me, it is the tone, so really I am here to learn how to take myself forward to being toned and physically fit. I am learning that that is a whole new ballgame. I am so thankful to have found Spark People and to have met the people I have here! Wish me luck!

I need some new found motivation for this last 10 pounds! I have lost nearly 70 since September 2007 by using Weight Watchers and joining a gym. It took a lot of hard work and motivation. I have a tendency to be an emotional eater which is a serious disservice to my weight loss efforts, especially in times like now when I am crazy stressed. I am also a mommy to a 2 year old, which makes working out hard to do after a full time job. I am hoping to lose this last little bit and firm up my body at the same time.

Hey, yea, I am going to a spanish school on Lake Atitlan for a month. But before that my folks are going to come hang out in Nicaragua with me. Then I'll head to Guatemala solo. My boyfriend is coming down when I am done with school. He'll fly into Guatemala city and then we are both flying out of Costa Rica a month later. So should be fun! The only thing I am worried about a bit is the super high violent crime rate in gua right now. It is one of the highest ! So... definitely some precautions to take. It'll be nice for you having a native to show you around! And living there? Wow, that sounds incredible! I love latin america!

LOL your remark on the "gordita" word made me smile, I've been called that my whole life (along with all the variations -gordis, gorda linda, gordita consentida, etc) no worries, you might get lots of que te paso? (what happened?) instead. Oh, and probably lots of food put on your plate, along with the comment, estas muy flaca!

Thanks for the support! Don't worry you will get back there and then some :) We all have rough weeks just keep going and don't give up! Think of your honey's face when he sees you next month.

I am trying to get into the running. I seem to have a love/hate relationship with it somedays but today was a good day!

Oooh la la...Guatemala. How exciting! Are you taking your daughter along? My weight loss is up and down. A few weeks ago I finally started working out again and lost some and got into the 140's but then I got ill and stopped. I gained 3 or so lbs and now I'm starting to workout again. So my weight is fluctuating between 150 and 152:-O. I'm trying to live normally and go about my days and lose weight without overdoing it. Thanks for asking:-). I saw that you were disappointed about your breakfast...it happens! I slip up every other day or so so I guess we are buddies in crime!
