This is the end of week one. This week was all about changing the foods I was eating. I replaced snack foods with fruit or veggies. I cut down on my carb intake, and replaced it with, you guessed it, even more veggies. Did I mention that I HATE veggies!!! I know, I know, I am like a 5 year old.
This is the beginning of week two. This next week will be all about drinking more water. I need to drink a minimum of 4-5 bottles of water a day. Currently I am only drinking 1-2. Let me tell you that I also HATE water. Again 5 year old, I hear you. I have gone from lots of sodas, to no more than one a day, if that. I will not be giving up coffee. No way, Jose. Coffee makes me happy, it makes my mornings go smoothly, it makes me much more tolerant of the upcoming day.
Here are the stats:
Starting Weight: 285
Current Weight: 273
Weight Lost: 12!!!!
Total Lost: 12
1st Goal: 270
I am breaking my weight loss goals into 15 lb increments. 15 lbs is a lot easier to swallow than 135 lbs.
I am also giving myself rewards for each goal. NON food rewards. Since rewarding myself with food defeats the purpose. Since money is fairly tight, they will also need to be reasonably priced. Any one have ideas for me? Please help me fill up my reward list!!!
Goal 1: 270 Reward: New Swimsuit Top!
Goal 2: 255 Reward:
Goal 3: 240 Reward:
Goal 4: 225 Reward:
Goal 5: 210 Reward:
Goal 6: 195 Reward:
Goal 7: 180 Reward:
Goal 8: 165 Reward:
Goal 9: 150 Reward: New wardrobe!!!
Obviously you had an awesome week. Congrats on the 12 pounds!! Amazing. Keep up the good work. It will be tough, but it sounds like you are really off to a great start!
ReplyDeleteThanks! I am pretty sure it's mostly water weight, but I am thrilled. I also know that I most likely will not have another week like this, so I am taking it with a grain of salt.
