28 pounds!

I've lost 28 pounds now and going strong!  YEA!!

Motivation

The picture on the left is of me around the time I started my diet this year.  The one on the right was taken when I lost 40 pounds in 2006.

Fight the Urge Moment by Moment.  This has really helped me in the past and is keeping me motivated now.  This helps me to not be overwhelmed by how much weight I want to lose but to know that I can do it as I take baby steps and fight moment by moment.  I am so excited by how well I'm doing and can't wait to lose more.  As of today I've lost 26 pounds!  In the past couple weeks I've lost a pound every 3 days.  We're going camping this weekend so if I want to keep that up, I'll have to be really good.  Wish me luck!!  

I'm Back!

I'm finally back on track.  I have now lost 25 pounds and am feeling very motivated!  I'm excited to lose more and feel healthier.  My goal right now is 75 pounds total although I read on websites that if I want my BMI to be in the healthy range, I should lose anywhere from 116 to 82 pounds!  Whew!  I'm working on 75 for right now.
