146.0

Hoping to be 145 tomorrow or Sat. Maybe I can even be at 143 or 144 before July 7th. I am recalling missing working out, though!

147.2

The not working out thing is working for me!  All I have done the last two weeks is run 2/2.5 miles once a week so I don't lose conditioning.

I have lost 3 pounds in two week and am hoping to lose another pound by Friday.  I am right at 1150 cal right now, but starving!  And I have had a huge ice cream craving that I have been fighting.

I think I can make it to 145 by July 7th!

I am at 148.0 today.  Not bad, since I just started my period.  I ate a bad lunch today though - Bristol with my friend Michelle.  I had 1/2 a shrimp wrap, a biscuit, and a bowl of lobster bisque.  I always get the soup, but I had not had the shrimp wrap before.  It was great!  I will probably always get that combo there now.

We are having french dip sandwiches for dinner tonight.  I pretty much ate my 1150 cal for breakfast and lunch, so I am going to have half a sandwich and that's it.

Still no working out.  I can feel that if I stay on my diet, I should drop to 146 or 147 next week when my period is over.

Still at 148.2

And I have got a weekend of eating ahead. Tomorrow we are going to a pool party and I am bringing Oreo brownies and Knock You Naked brownies. Sunday I am going over to my dad's for breakfast and then we always go to Jose Pepper's for dinner on Father's Day. That is what Lee always picks!

148.2!

Exactly 30 pounds lost since November. 9.5 left of baby weight. I promptly ate half a hamburger, some fries and part of Kellen's shake at Fritz's today. But I will have a salad for dinner.
I want to be at 145 by July 7th. My original goal was 138 by July 1 but that is just not going to happen.

Ugh, still at 150.2

I ate 1149 today so I am hoping I can break through this and get down to 148 by Friday! I ran on Sunday but am taking the whole week off to see if I can get the scale moving. I am starting to be afraid that I am going to be here forever...

150.2

I am still hovering around this. I ate 1175 cal yesterday so I was hoping to have dropped something this morning. hopefully tomorrow. Lee is gone tonight, so just eggs and toast for dinner. Today at the gym I did 40 min on the elliptical and took a 30 min spin class. I also did abs. My heartrate monitor said I burned 750 calories during my workout. My new fav snack is cereal with almond milk. I have never eaten much cereal because I don't like milk. Sometimes I eat it dry, but not often. I tried some with almond milk last week and I cannot get enough of it! I can have a big bowl of rice chex or honey bunches of oats with almond milk and it is only 150 calories! I had chex for breakfast and a bowl of honey bunches of oats after the gym. Lunch is a turkey sandwich, the usual. Looking back at my posts, I swear I am only losing weight when I am not working out! I am going to do a lot of cardio again this week and not work out next week at all and see what happens. Someone at Lee's work is having a pool party of Father's Day weekend and I really would rather not get into a swimsuit until August!

Ran 3 miles!

I had a great run today. It was nice and cool at 7:30 this morning and I had no trouble getting to 3 miles. That means there is no turning back now! I have realized that keeping my heart rate in the 160's makes a hige difference. That is when my run feels easy. And my first two miles were 11:30 miles. Still slow, but I was at 13 min miles, so I feel good! I also am wearing a pair of pre pregnancy jeans, although I have a bit of a muffin top. They are size 8. I weighed in at 149.6 on Thursday.
