Feeling a little discouraged. I've been stuck at this weight for about a week and a half. My fi7rst goal is to get to 247. Me second goal is 243. My next goal will be 232. The next will be 224. The next goal will be 207. The next will be to break 200. My ultimate goal is to see 174, which is what I weighed before I had my first child 20 years ago. Saying that seems so crazy to me because it feels like yesterday and I have literally been saying this for 20 years. This is the first time since 2009 that I have seen results. I remember going to NYC with the kids to see the Christmas show and I remember feeling great. I was 232 then. That's why I have it entered as one of my goal weights. 224 was one of the first weights that I realized I was gaining weight. That was in 2002. When I met my husband in 2001 I was 207. That is why I have that as another goal. Of course I would like to break 200. Even if I never see 174, I would be happy to see 199. I started seeing and feeling the weightless recently. My clothes have gotten looser, my pajamas feel huge, so I decided to meet up with my friend Rick from high school to go pumpkin picking with out families. I was SHOCKED to look at the pictures and are how HUGE I still looked, feeling better about my weight. I once again have a gross misconception of how I really look. That was a harsh reality for me. I have a little secret for keeping me motivated. It is my husbands "friend" who is losing weight by being healthy and refraining from giving in to temptation. If she can do it, I can do it! I need to do this in order to be healthier for my children, to not feel embarrassed in public, I can't fit comfortably in any chair. Right now I can barely fit into any chair in public and I am mortified.
