Goal! - 10/25/08

Posted 10-25-2008 at 03:49 AM by maria40nc
I dropped below goal as of this morning! My final goal was 118 lbs, and when I got on the scale this morning, it fluctuated between 116.5 and 117. The trick now is to stabalize, maintain and tone. The Egg Fast seems to be what I needed to get over that final hump. And now I know I can rely on the Egg Fast in the future if my weight starts to creep back up.

A few days ago I realized all my skirts are sliding down my hips; I had to change my clothes 3 times before I found soemthing I could wear to work. I need to make some alterations lest they fall mid-stride! I might...

Egg Fast - 10/19/08

Posted 10-19-2008 at 05:19 PM by maria40nc
Well, now that the workplace fitness program is over I've gotten lazy and have been less than diligent with my food choices. I've actually gained back 2 pounds. I've been stalled and/or gaining for a couple of weeks now and I've had it!

I found a thread for doing an Egg Fast. Everyone in the forum is happy, positive, and losing weight... so I decided to jump in and join them. Today was my first day on the egg fast.

2 Coffee (This is my vice and will not give it up!)
1 T Half & Half
Davinci Hazelnut Syrup

3 Scrambled Eggs

Workplace Fitness Program - 10/7/08

Today was the final day of our workplace fitness challenge. It was a six week program. We had to weigh-in every Monday, and if we lost weight, we won a prize. I won a prize every week!

The final weigh-in was very close, but I was in fact down by .4 lb for the week, leaving me at 120.2 lbs (a total of 14.8 lbs lost! 4 of which I lost prior to the challenge). Even though I did not quite reach my final goal of 118 lbs, I still felt victorious since I at least continued to lose every week and got all the prizes!

A new program starts October 27 that will keep...

Purple Ketosis Stick, Good or Bad?!? - 9/30/08

Ok... so I have never been one to spend money on diet pills, protein bars/shakes, special low carb products, or gadgets. I believe in losing weight without these things. And I had NO intention of buying Ketosis sticks.

However, I joked about "purple pee sticks" to my boyfriend and next thing I knew, he had gone out and bought me some. So I thought, what the heck.. I'll try it.

Well, I tried it yesterday and it was VERY purple. For some reason, all of a sudden I was frightened by it like I was abnormal or something! Is this a good thing, or a bad thing?!?...

Almost Goal, Still Feel Fat - 9/29/08

Posted 09-29-2008 at 10:25 AM by maria40nc
Monday morning weigh-in at the workplace: 120.6 lbs. I lost 1.4 lbs this week and got a prize for losing. It was a little stuffed snowman and also a snowman Christmas ornament with my name on it. I was very pleased.

My final goal is 118 lbs, only 2.6 pounds away. I should be feeling skinny minnie by now, but I still feel FAT! I know it is because of the flabbiness of my mid-section. I've been walking religiously every day and added the YOU ON A Diet 20-minute workout for toning. I think I need to focus even more on the toning exercises, then maybe I'll start feeling...
