nikkiluvslowcarb · 10-18-2012, 08:48 AM

Aww thanks ladies!

170.2 this morning, I can see the 160's around the corner! Today is my last vacation day. I don't wanna go back to work tomorrow

.

nikkiluvslowcarb · 10-18-2012, 08:55 AM

I loaded the couch to 5K on my phone. I'm starting that today.

If I can do this then I would like to work my way up to doing a half marathon the end of next year.

DesertGurl · 10-18-2012, 12:40 PM

Wowzers 170!! You rock girlfriend!!

You most certainly can knock out a half marathon!! Excited for you!!!

Jayce · 10-18-2012, 01:13 PM

I need to go back through your journal & write down what you ate...I think you tend to eat the same things often, if my memory serves me right.

Have a great day!

writermom · 10-18-2012, 06:01 PM

Nikki, love the new avatar! You will be doing that half marathon for sure. It's a great goal and one that I know you can do when you set your mind to it!!

Bejewelme · 10-20-2012, 05:58 AM

I have no doubt you can do it Nikki!!!

nikkiluvslowcarb · 10-20-2012, 07:02 AM

Jayce, I do eat the same things a lot. I know some people don't like to do that but it don't bother me.

I never though I would like running but I'm excited that I can do it now. I love the energy and endorphin rush I get after I run. I can't run a long time right now but I will get there. Before I go too far first I have to get some good running shoes.

So for now my goal is to get to my goal weigh between 150-155. I hope to be there by New Years. Then in 2013 I want to run a half marathon! It means a lot to me to have my LCF support on my journey.

Jayce · 10-20-2012, 08:21 AM

I'm a creature of habit myself, so I don't mind eating mostly the same things on a daily basis.

Good luck with your next goals!

DesertGurl · 10-20-2012, 08:25 AM

Nikki, you will totally be ready for that half!!! Definitely get yourself some good shoes it really helps.

Excited to see you reach your goal of 150!!!

Total inspiration!!

Jayce, I think eating the same things is probably a good way to get going and stay on track. I tend to be like you, a creature of habit, I like certain things and making me change them only makes me cranky!

You got this girly!!!

mama_2_3 · 10-20-2012, 06:40 PM

Yup, there is nothing like that runners high. I'm so happy you get to experience it. Just wait until you run that first 20 min stretch - you'll be so proud!

ceecee08 · 10-23-2012, 07:01 AM

Morning Nikki!!! You are soooo close!!!!!!! AAAAAHHH. Go head skinny minny.

nikkiluvslowcarb · 10-23-2012, 02:47 PM

169.8 this morning! Hope I don't bounce back up to the 170's.
I'm still trucking along here. Trying to reach my goal weight by New Years. I have been eating a little more this week because of added stress. The bakery manager is on vacation so I'm doing the managers job and mine. She comes back Friday and I'm counting down the days. Lol

Jayce · 10-23-2012, 07:51 PM

So happy for you!

Dedicated · 10-24-2012, 05:07 AM

DesertGurl · 11-02-2012, 08:54 AM

How's it going Nikki! Are you surviving double-duty?

ceecee08 · 11-07-2012, 01:07 PM

nikki!!!

Jayce · 11-08-2012, 04:39 PM

Hey Nikki!

nikkiluvslowcarb · 11-09-2012, 04:01 PM

Hi girls! Sorry I've been MIA the last couple of weeks. I've been doing some running and I love it. As of this morning I weigh 166.8. TOM is here so I'm not expecting a loss on Monday.

I think it's time I change some other things in my life as well. I'm not happy with my job anymore. I really wish I would have went to college so I could do more. So I think in 2013 it will be time for me to look for something better.

DesertGurl · 11-10-2012, 03:15 PM

Hey girly!

Wow, it seems you've got some wonderful things happening! Enjoying the running, thinking of a new job.... you are amazing, lady! I know you'll find something fun and exciting to do, I just know it! Great job on the losing too, just so inspiring.

mama_2_3 · 11-10-2012, 06:06 PM

Yay! I'm so happy you caught the running bug!

I'm sorry you're not so happy at work anymore. Are you looking to do something completely different, or would you stay in the food industry? Either way, you have already proven you can do anything you put your mind to.

Being happy with work is very important. Hopefully you find a new position soon!

nikkiluvslowcarb · 11-20-2012, 04:38 PM

Thanks ladies! It's a ruff week at work with Thanksgiving and training a new girl. Yesterday's weigh in 164.4! Yay!

I have some exciting news to share with y'all. Last week I was interviewed by a writer for the Kaplan Herald. She is writing a story on my weight loss. She has my before and after pic too. My story will be on the front page! It will be out on Nov 28th. I'm so excited!

mama_2_3 · 11-20-2012, 06:57 PM
