another pound down

I can't believe it. I have lost just over another pound. I weighed myself twice just to make sure I wasn't seeing things, or that my scale was wrong. I am eating alot more then ever, but then again I try to work out every day now too.
All these years starving myself, because that is what I did when I was a teen and I was a size 0. Even after having kids, I still never ate right, I was afraid to eat and gain more weight.
I am having a hard time wrapping my head around it. But it is working. I just pray that it keeps on working.
I am going to keep at it, Keep doing what I have been doing, and it would be so awesome to be at my goal by the time this program is over. I am still eating whatever I want (pizza, lumpia ect.) I just keep track of my calories and don't go over my daily goal. I think that is why it has been so easy, because I haven't denied myself anything, where on other "diets" I would try to stay away from things I love like Chocolate milk and I wouldn't make it because that is one of my favorite things.
I am rambling. Well I started at 145 and I am down to 140.8. I am almost half way to my goal and still have 7 1/2 weeks left to go. I CAN DO THIS!!!!!!!

Week 1 almost done

So week 1 is almost finished. I have lost about 2 1/2 pounds, and have been doing great in drinking my water (crystal light) and keeping up with my calories. I am trying hard to stick with healthy foods, but so far am getting a little bored with some of my choices. I have been treating myself though, I know if I deny myself anything it will just make it harder to do this.
I still need to get all my mearsurments and my before picture taken. I started the 30 day shred dvd again, and am hoping to make it the whole 30 days doing it. out of all the excercising and workouts I have been doing, for some reason this is the one that causes me the most pain, but I know it is working in toning me and making me stronger.
I am really looking forward to the end of this program and seeing if I can tell any difference. I am hoping when I go to the mall of America this spring, I can go on a shopping spree to get myself some more skinny clothes.
Other then Soar Into Shape, things are going well at home. Brittney has decided to go back to Awana, I am so happy about that. I want her to want to learn about God and not force it on her. Still trying to get to move to Florida. Not sure if it happens but I am praying for it.
Valorie has 4 more teeth coming in wich puts her at 10. Not wanting to rush weaning her, but we shall see, I am letting her take the lead in that.
Abigail has become my little workout buddy. She loves to work out with me, she even uses my 2 pound weights. I need to get Shawn to take a picture of us working out together, she is too cute. She loves it, she thinks it is so much fun.
Looks like Shawn will more then likely be getting surgery on his Knee again. The shots didn't help. It will have to be done in Minnesota, not sure when they will do it and how it will affect our summer trip to Maine this year.
Off to bed, I am beat.

Soar Into Shape-Day 3

So far I have been doing great. I am getting right up to my calories, been getting a work out in every day, so far since I started I have lost 1.6 pounds. My goal is 10 in 9 weeks. I have to go to the store to get more fruit. I have been doing okay with veggies, but I really need to add fruit in there.
I am glad to see that even eating more then normal I am still slowly losing and not gaining, that was a fear of mine. Today I will have to work out at home, and I won't make it to class tonight because we have Shawn and my teams Volleyball games tonight, and I have to be there to support. But I plan to make it up on the Saturday morning class.
I am finding it the more I work out the hungrier I am. So I guess earning the extra calories while working out is nice.
That is about it. off to get day 3 started.
