Getting There Week 11

Its been 11 weeks since surgery. I feel great and i have to admit I'm starting to look a lil bit better as well. I think i've hit another slump or stop - yesterdays weight was 194.8. But thats ok - that still 48 pounds and im not done yet. Id love to hit 50 pounds in the coming days but all i can do is put in the work and wait for it to happen!

Week 8

It has been 8 full weeks since surgery. I'm down 42 pounds - which is far more than I could have ever achieved on my own in such a short amount of time. When I started this journey I set a few goals not knowing if they were achievable, not knowing how I would initially do after surgery. The first goal was to be in One-derland (be 199 or less) by the boys birthday. Well that didn't happen, but I'm oh so close at 201.6 - so hey I may be there by Mothers Day!! My next goal was centered around the boys graduation which is June 14th exactly 37 days from today.  I would love to be down another 15 pounds by then! I've decided to chill out and stop rushing the process. If Im there then I'm there - if not I'll be so close it will still be worth celebrating. In the meantime I know I need to get my tail moving. So today I got up and did some stuff around the house and did 15 elbow to knee crunches - 15 regular crunches and 10 wall push ups. And tonight I think I'm gonna go for a walk! I've got to help this process get moving in my favor so here I go!!
