New resolve

I was at 146.8 yesterday.  I really want to be 145 by Friday.  I am planning on going to yoga or pilates 4 or 5 times this week, plus run on Sunday.  In July I am just going to run 1 day each week to keep up my endurance to see if I can lose weight just with the yoga.  I am also going to lower my calories down to 1100 on some days. I am going to pick up the running more in the fall.  I should be able to get in 3-4 runs a week.  I love the fall!
I can tell you that losing weight is harder with the 2nd baby.  Granted, I only had to lose 22 pounds or so but I was eating around 1400 cal a day and the weight was coming off at the same pace.

Here are my weight goals:
Aug 1-142
Sept 1- 138 
Oct 1- 134
Nov 1- 130
Dec 1- 125

Basically 1 pound a week for the next 5 months.  Taking this weight off is taking forever!  If I meet my goal I would have lost 53 pounds in 13 months. 

I am getting sick of feeling fat for so long.  I just want to feel normal again.  I got a few bad pictures taken this weekend and I am going to print it out and put it on my fridge!  I just want out of the 140's and I think I will feel a little better.

Today I had a fab breakfast at the bed and breakfast.  I am giving myself 600 calories for breakfast.  I did not eat it all. I left the salad, half a potato and half the quiche.  I finished the fruit and french toast though!  I have two tacos from Jack in the Box on the way home.  340 calories.  I am not cooking tonight.  We are either having plain leftover pasta with red sauce or I am going to just have a protein shake.  It is still hot here, so having a cool protein shake actually sounds really good!  I just have to keep my hands off the snack mix!
