Weigh In Week 5

Well, surprisingly enough I lost weight this week. It was another solid week. I lost 3.5 pounds. I had the first person who didn't know I was on a diet ask if I lost weight. Man, that feels really good. I know he asked because I am wearing my favorite pair of work jeans (I wear them to work all the time) and they are getting big. They are an 18. I do not quite fit the 16s I have yet which is curious. My birthday is Mar. 29th. and I would like to have lost 30 pounds by then. I am trying to figure out if that is going to be realistic.

I hope next week I can dig out all my 16s and put the 18s in the donate. I will never ever see these again. Somebody asked me how I can do this. I realize this time it is already easier since I read blogs of people I feel are like me. Before I work out, I check them all and I read that they worked out. It makes me feel so bad if I read it and do not work out. If they can do it, I can too.

At the end of this journey, I plan on printing the whole blog out. Yes, ALL OF IT. I will clip it together and put it on my fridge. When I want to over indulge, I will read how long and how hard I worked.

I started cruise shopping. You know when I lose the weight I get one. So I have started to dream. I know we cannot really afford it but we cannot afford me not to be healthy either. I want to show all the doubters the real me. The me that is on the inside wanting to burst out.

GOOD LUCK to everyone else on their weigh ins this week.
