I will because in a day or two it will be right back to dieting and trying not to order out lol Im giving myself time to watch the new Gilmore Girls: A Year in the Life episodes (there are 4 each one about 90 minutes long) so Ill either marathon them tonight or tomorrow and let myself have junk food or pizza...then back to trying to keep a big deficit. Im sticking to 1200 (net) until I hit the 180s then might up to 1300-1400 and add in weight training when I can. My goal is 127. Seems a lot closer now that both weights start with 1! lol. Going to try not to go over maintenance though even with the pizza.0 -
Motivation comes from the strangest of places!
And I love weight training. I know I've got muscles underneath all of that fat and I can't wait to get rid of the layers hiding them! Another 20kg (or so) to go till goal weight, but that's going to be my project for next year.1 -
Hooray!1

Whoop Whoop congrats! We can all breath again1

Omg I dont know when she will announce the winner but probably wont find out until super late tonight or tomorrow lol Im anxious! Im pretty sure if I didnt win Im at least in the top 2 people but I am keeping my fingers crossed. I was able to get a tree (we sold some stuff) so now Im thinking ornaments or Christmas clothes for the kids.ladyreva78 wrote: »Motivation comes from the strangest of places!

LOL right?? I have another 70lbs but I figure I will start adding strength training when Im in the 180s. I have a bad ankle and with all this weight on my body it puts extra stress on it and can be painful. I hope when I get down to a lower weight the pain will lessen some too.
