Week 10
I lost 3 pounds this week! I’m back on my diet. I also finally started lifting weights, and I lost a half inch on my waist.
I have lost 23 pounds in 10 weeks. That’s 2.3 pounds a week, and 12.9% of my weight gone! I am feeling better, and can really tell I look better.
I have 16 weeks left, and only 17 pounds to go. I have lost 4 1/2 inches off my waist, with 4 1/2 inches left. (I am currently at 31.5 inches)
I have my motivation back from the holidays – it just took an extra week. So I think I can cook some again, rather than just using boxed meals. 
Week 9
This week, I lost no weight.
It isn’t a real surprise – I had a lot of trouble sticking to my diet, and no motivation. This despite being halfway there.
I need to find some motivation, fast. Hopefully the transition back to work and the daily grind will keep me away from the fridge.
I have 20 pounds left to lose, and 17 more weeks. This is very doable.
Month 2
This month, I lost 7 pounds, bringing my total to 20.
In two months, 1/3 of my alloted time, I’ve lost half of the weight.
I’m really looking better. My face, arms, and body are noticably thinner in pictures, and I am happy to have a waist again.
I’m not exactly sure how much more I have to lose, but I know exercise will help to maintain the pace I’m on – down to a reasonable just less than 2 pounds per week. Plus, I only lost an inch off my waist, so I know a change is needed to look the way I want to.
Yay!
