4/28/13 - Well my first week at my new goal and calorie change has really paid off...I have lost 2.6 lbs this week...I now weigh 191.8.....An incredibly nice loss for me....Especially as my average is only .6 to 1 lb....So I am excited...I am going to keep this calorie count for 1 more week and see what happens...Then I may need to change again so my body doesn't get complacent.
4/23/13 - I have been really trying to lose more but nothing is happening...So I set a new goal of 185 by our District Assembly which is 6/28/13...That is 1630 calories a day...It will not be easy as I am use to 1750 and above...My exercise is going good so I had to make a change with my calories to see if it will remove this plateau....
4/4/13 - 21.6 lbs lost!!!!!!!!After 2 weeks I have finally achieved more weight loss...I woke up this morning to a 1.2 lb weight loss...Fantastic!!!! I now weigh 194.4 and am only .4 away from my 10 percent weight loss goal.....Then onward to my final goal....:)HURRAY!!!!!!
I finally made it to 20lbs...As of 3/16/13 I now weigh 195.8 and have lost 20.2 lbs. So since 10/3/2012 I have lost 20.2 lbs..........I cannot wait to get under 195 that is my next goal 10% weight loss for a weight of 194.0.....
.As of 3/14/13 I am down another lb...So I weigh 197.0...Only 3 lbs from 194 and on to the next goal....It has been a hard 2 to 3 weeks....Hit a plateau...But finally started losing again thanks to extra exercise and just 20 less calories a day...
2/22/13 - I am down .4 this week...So I now weigh 198.0 ...Only 4 lbs to 194.....I am confident I can achieve this by the end of March 2013.....
2/17/13 down .4 more for a 1 lb loss and only 4.4 left til 194....
It is 2/16/13......i now weigh 198.8...so i am solidly under 200 lbs....NEVER to go back over 200 lbs......I am bound and determined not only to lose the weight but keep it off....i am a lifetime spark member and plan on keeping track of food daily for good now!!!! So I lost .6 this week and am only 4.8 lbs away from my 10% weight loss of 22 lbs....BUT NOT STOPPING THERE.....My ultimate goal is 165....and i know now that i can and will achieve it THIS YEAR......
As of 2/10/13 I have now achieved my first hurdle which was to be under 200 lbs..I woke up this morning and weighed in at 199.4...I cannot tell you all how happy it made me...Have not seen that kind of weight since 2007. Now I am moving on to 10% weight loss of 22 lbs by 4/15/13...I am quite confident if I keep up what I am doing I will achieve that ahead of time...I am now exercising regularly at least 4 to 5 days per week...Walking either at work in the halls or on the treadmill...It is helping to make the difference. I cannot stress enough how simple a process loosing weight is...Eating right, eating right portions, and exercise. That does not mean it is not hard just a simple process...No gimmicks no pills....I am bound and determined to reach my ultimate goal which is 165. The weight I was when I got married 22 1/2 years ago...

My Goals:
I am trying a new focus...A new goal of 185 by 6/28/13 which is much sooner than 9/1/2013.
I have learned since I started Oct. 3, 2012 that for me 2 pounds a week is too much. In order to achieve that consistently every week I would have to eat 1300 to 1400 calories every day. That is simply not enough for me to feel happy or satisfied. So I have learned to accept any weight loss. It is a step in the right direction...DOWN!!!! I have until September 1st to achieve my ultimate goal of 185 or below...I will succeed....
My Program:
Eating as healthy as I can for me and staying under my calorie count for the day and watching my sodium intake and trying to fit in exercise as much as I can even if it is a 10 minute walk.
Personal Information:
I live in Iowa. I have been a baptized witness since October 1981....Married in September 1990.
Other Information:
I enjoy going away with my husband each year on our anniversary. I have 3 wonderful children.
