Weight History

Start Weight

195.0 lb

Lost so far: 42.0 lb

Current Weight

153.0 lb
Performance: Steady

Goal Weight

130.0 lb

Still to go: 23.0 lb

I spent years unconsciously eating whatever i wanted. I gained the weight slowly so I hardly noticed it. I had gained a total of 65 pounds which is a lot for my 5'2" frame. I found Weight Watchers through talking with friends and family about their success with the program. I took that first important step to the healthier and hotter me. With the help of Weight Watchers I have lost 39.8 pounds, and 47 1/2 inches off of my body! I am loving life more, I feel healthier and happier, and I have the self esteem back that has been lacking for many years. I still have some weight to lose, but I know that if I just keep eating right and exercising that I will reach my goal. I love the Weight Watchers program! It's awesome! For anyone that is interested, here is a link to my weight loss blog. It has helped me to stay motivated with this weight loss and I hope that it helps others as well.

An emotional moment
Back in March 12th, 2008 I wrote down 4 goals for myself. They were:

1. By 1 year I want to at least have lost 40 pounds
2. I want to be able to do 20 push ups in a row without stopping
3. I want to be down to a size 10, at least.
4. I want to be able to do 20 sit ups in a row without stopping

A while back I had accomplished 2 out of the 4. I am VERY proud to say that I have accomplished 3 out of the 4! I was walking through my house, getting things done, and checking on my kids, and then I just decided that I would do some sit ups because I was curious to know if I could actually do 20 in a row, and I JUST did! After I did the sit ups, I just laid there on the floor and cried. Those tears weren't tears of sadness, but they were tears of happiness because I accomplished something that I never thought that I'd be able to do when I started my weight loss journey. Back then I could barely do 1 sit up, now I am able to do 20, and it feels great to have accomplished that!

Goal #1: NOT YET Sad

I have almost accomplished my first goal of wanting to lose 40 pounds by my 1 year anniversary. If I lose just 3.6 more pounds then I will have accomplished that goal! I'm SO close, but yet so far away. I will try my hardest to reach that 40-pound mark! And when I do then you can bet that I will be yelling it out for the world to hear!

Goal #2: ACCOMPLISHED!!!!

Goal #3: ACCOMPLISHED!!!! I am now able to get into a size 8 pant, but can not yet zip them. Soon I will and I can't wait! But for now I am happy just being able to get into the size 8's!

Goal #4: ACCOMPLISHED!!!!

So, what should my next set of goals be? I would love to hear about what you all think.

I love feedback!

Do you notice a difference?!?!
It sure does! Now I "only" have about 39.6 more pounds to go.... (sigh)
I am determined that I will get there though! It will just take time.

It will just take time, patience and persistance.
I'm really proud of myself, and just wanted to tell you all about it.
