168.2

Didn't make it to 168... oh well! Very close though :)

Weekly goal weight: 167
Actual weight: 168.2

Weekly weight loss: 1.8 lbs.

168.6

I actually think it is more like 168.2, but I got up in the middle of the night and drank water and ate jello, so I think that fucked me up.
Well, my wisdom teeth are out. It was super painful at the beginning but I am kinda used to it. The cold liquid diet wasn't so bad: low carb ice cream, sugar free jello, and tuna fish. Oh, and my mom also got me sugar free red bull :) All-in-all it was a decent day for eating, but I would be lying if I said I didn't expect the scale to be a little lower. Still, as I said, it was 168.2 before I started snacking in the middle of the night, so that is cool :) Tomorrow's goal is 167... doubtful, but as long as I weigh 167._ I will be happy, even if it is 167.9; I just want this week's weight loss to be over two pounds.

169

UGHHHH when will I be down to 168!? Only a pound lost since Friday. Blahhhhh.

169.2

I always lose A LOT less over the weekend because I am less rigid about my eating and I don't exercise. This past weekend, like the weekend before, I drank a lot of red bull and had very erratic sleeping patterns. I also had a non-alcoholic beer, which is a bit carby. Brett & I got Thai food on Saturday, which probably wasn't the best thing to eat; still, I think I am doing well. I have no doubt that I should be able to reach my goal of 167 by Friday! :)

169.4

Yay :)

PS& I am in keto!

170

Weekly goal weight: 169
Actual weight: 170

Weight loss this week: 1.6 pounds

Kinda bummed I did not get into the 160's this week, but the scale was going back and forth between 169.4-170, so at least I am damn close. I think the intense workouts this week have caused me to gain muscle, which weighs more than fat. Either way, I know I am doing what I need to do to keep this weight loss going. I think I can reach next week's goal of 167. MUST LOSE THREE POUNDS!! I am getting my wisdom teeth removed this week... we'll see how that affects my weight loss.

170.2

So I have lost 1.4 pounds so far this week... need to lose 1.2 more by tomorrow to reach goal. Believe it or not, I think I can! I am going to exercise a lot today and keep a positive attitude :) Either way as long as I lose .6 more this week I will be happy because that will be a 2 pound weight loss for the week, which is my goal every week until I reach my goal weight.

Being so motivated is scary, but in a good way. I feel like I was constantly sabotaging myself before. Why? I don't know, but I do know I was always fucking up for no real reason. Not this time... I deserve to have my dreams come true.

Here is Brett & I at the wedding! I don't look too shabby, do I!?

171.4

Only lost .2 pounds ALL WEEKEND! That kind of sucks but overall I am okay with it since I kind of goofed up on Friday by drinking two non-alcoholic beers (I TOTALLLLLY forgot they had carbs) and I had the wedding this past weekend. I did not cheat at all at the wedding, but the lack of exercise all weekend is probably what stunted my weight loss. That and I am on my period, which is keeping me bloated and grossssssss. I think I still should be able to reach my Friday goal of 169 (must lost 2.4 pounds) if I exercise daily and keep doing everything I am supposed to be doing.

Also --- I have not had a drink in over two weeks. Go go me!

Here is a picture of little ol' me at the wedding!



The wedding was really fun :) I will post a full body picture later!

171.6

Week goal: 171
Actual weight: 171.6

Only .6 off of goal. That means I lost three pounds this week! That is awesome! I think I should be able to lose 2.6 pounds this week to bring me to next week's goal of 169. Gosh I cannot wait to be out of the 170's! The weight is really coming off with drinking out of the picture. Honestly, this weight loss could not be a better motivator to keep me off of the liquor. I feel like a new person. I have been reading everyday, doing a bit around the house, trying to exercise... I feel like I am really on track and I am liking it.

172.8

But I know it is actually lower because I haven't gone to the bathroom in quite a few days... once I go I think I will be down below 172. I just hate this weight loss because until I get below 168 I feel like I am just working to lose weight I already lost, which isn't as exciting as losing new weight. But once i am below 168, which should be within the next couple weeks, I will be really happy.

173ish

I did not drink AT ALL this weekend. Sticking to my goals and feeling good...
I think I should be able to make my 171 goal for Friday... if I am not 171, I should be somewhere right around there.

Goal of the week aside from 171: work out everyday this week.

Can I do this? Yes!
Will I? Hell yes!

My DUI class has been a huge eye-opener. I feel like although I am not an alcoholic I do have a problem with drinking; I am unable to control myself while drinking. It always ends up too much and I always wake up feeling terrible. I have made the decision to quit drinking for six months, with the possibility of quitting for good. I want to be able to have fun without alcohol and I also want to be able to have the confidence to put myself out there to make friends without alcohol. I know it will be hard, but I have my DUI classes to keep me focused. I am also thinking about attending local AA meetings... maybe once a week, or something. Anyway, with alcohol ACTUALLY out of the way (unlike when I claim I am going to quit and don't), weight loss is an actuality. Drinking fucks up my blood sugar which is terrible for low carb. I also always cheat the day after a night of drinking. No alcohol = no cheating.
