Just said no!!
Not sure if this is where I should be posting this, but it is a victory for me. My hubby announced that he was going to run to Jack in the Box because he was hungry...did I want anything? OK, I love the ultimate cheeseburgers and curly fries.....and even though I wasn't hungry I was debating getting one. I overcame, and…

I've only lost 16 lbs. so far (some before I joined MFP) but have dramatically changed my blood glucose levels. I went from a 7.1 the first part of July to a 6.1 now. I've talked with my doctor and I'm going to start reducing one of my diabetes meds. :happy:

I'm so happy with my weigh in!!
So, I jumped on the scales first thing this morning and I'm at 180.0! That's a 7lb loss in ten days! The weight loss in the very beginning is such a great motivation to keep going. My ultimate goal is to be 135lbs by August 7, 2010. ((That's the day of my sister's wedding and I'm the Matron of Honor!)) I'm confident that…

I never thought...
In a million years, I never ever thought I would lose 15 pounds. Some of you may remember me talking about taking Phentermine, well, I quite taking it, and now I'm down 15 beautiful pounds. Without the help of a drug. ALL BY MYSELF. I've been making wise choices (okay except that one time...Carl's Jr...grr, not blaming…

VICTORY IS MINE!
Truly corny post but I was able to plan a nice evening out with friends that included some dessert and stayed within calories. Stressed all day but kept rehearsing my food menus for the day in my head and it really helped. Weighed in this morning with another 1.5 lbs down! Just had to share.

YES!! FIRST GOAL ACCOMPLISHED!
Alrighty! So, here's the scoop. I set up two main goals for myself; short-term ones that I felt were achievable. This was probably about a month or so ago that I started this. Anyhow, the first goal was to be under 210 lbs, and the second was to be under 200 lbs. I started this at around 215 lbs. Until the last week, I…

For some reason today as I was sitting here at the computer, it just hit me and I realized a few important things: OK, I've been working on my weight loss for over a year and a half and haven't had too much success (for the long peroid of time compared to how overweight I started out..). I guess it's all due to the fact…

Even my golf swing is better!
Went golfing last week. Hadn't been since beginning my lifestyle change. Wow! what a difference! My swing felt so much more easy and natural and it was so much easier to stay balanced on my follow-through. I know why those pros spend so much time working out while they are on tour. It can make a huge difference. Hope I'll…

I was not happy about it but I did it! One of my coworkers brought in donuts this morning and I managed to say no and eat my oatmeal instead. Then during lunch they were in the lunch area and I almost caved but I put the newspaper over them so I wouldn't have to look at them. I leave work in 30 minutes, I've gone all day I…
