yogamama3's Journal, 14 June 2010

Today I am challenging myself to 6 weeks. I want to lose 30lbs in 6 weeks. I also want to go 6 weeks without cake, cookies, candy bars, or ice cream. Just writing that makes me crave it. I dont want to give it up forever although that would be ideal! I just want to give it up for 6 weeks. I want to see if in 6 weeks of not eating it and exercising if I can lose any weight or if maybe I am having a bigger problem.

All the stress is over, I have my son home in my arms. He is doing well. The kids are off school for the summer and they are all getting along great.I have no reason to binge eat and not workout. No one ever said weight loss was easy, well correction a lot of people have and they all got fat! or died from all those insane diets!!

I did this once before not that long ago then I gave into temptation and made excuses. No more!

I may not write every day on here but I will do my best for 6 weeks. I have a lot riding on this. I miss my old body, I can get a half sleeve tattoo if I lose 30lbs and keep it off for 6m. I will have more energy and less pain in my legs and back and people will say, oh wow look at her I cant believe she has 5 kids!!!(That is the nest reason of all, lol)

So here goes. 6 weeks. Starts today ends July 26. Right in time for our annual luau on July 31st. Sz 10's here I come!!!!

Be blessed
195.6 lb Lost so far: 58.4 lb.    Still to go: 37.6 lb.    Diet followed poorly.

I gained 30lb in the last 6 months. I cant believe I did this to myself. I know 30lbs in 6 weeks is a lot. I will not be disappointed I just need a big goal so I can have something to work toward. A totally insane goal so maybe I will avoid the crap eating before I am back up to 254! A son, yes my husband and I welcomed number 5 into our family on May 28th. http://linnea-ourjourneytoadoption.blogspot.com/ You can check out our blog for details. I have been so busy I havent been on fatsecret at all. We started the adoption process 6m ago for a russian girl and after a long hard heart breaking road the door was shut and we were heartbroken, but God is good. We found out Noah needed a family and 4 weeks later he was in our arms. YAY!! He is 3 months old.

Thats a big goal, good luck to you!! The real challenge in a weightloss like that is maintaining. I love your tattoo goal. If its what you really want the it will make maintaining easier. I've owned a belly ring that I love for almost 5 years and haven't put it in because when I bought it I said I had to get in shape, I didn't...hopefully it will come out of the jewelry box soon!! And congrats on the adoption, what an awesome family you must have!
