25 lbs in 14 months!

File under: Weight Loss

When I see it like that it doesn’t look as awesome as it feels, but I don’t care.  I have lost and gained so much weight over the last 14 months, but in the end the numbers keep going down.  I am so proud of me.  I have never stuck with long term weight loss like this.  If it couldn’t be achieved in 6-8 weeks then I gave up. Who can lose over 100 lbs in 6-8 weeks? Gimme a break! My goal now is to up the ante. I want to lose another 25 lbs by September. Realistically, in that time period, I should be able to lose about 18 if I go for the 2 lbs a week for 9 weeks.  So I will aim for 25, be ecstatic if I lose 20 and totally okay if I lose 18.  My next mini goal is 250, that’s 6 lbs. So I should hit that in 3 weeks.  Hopefully, I will lose a little more than that, but if I take off those 6 I will have done what I set out to do. Enjoy your Independence Day Weekend!!!!!!!

    When I first started to lose I was dropping 15 lbs each year for two years. Initially I was very unhappy with my progress of only 15 a year but now that I look back I’m so happy and proud that I actually lost weight those two years and have still to this day kept it off. It’s better that I lost instead of maintain or even gained. To me any loss is a good one. Congrats on your progress!!! Keep up the good work.
