Week 6 Weigh In

Well, well, well....
254 this morning. I am VERY happy about this, since I ate about 6 large pizzas a week ago. Okay, not 6, but I ate too much! However, I picked myself up and got right on the dieting bandwagon again. Pretty much unheard of for me to do that.

Yeah me! This means I have lost 19.5 pounds! Double Yippee!

This weight is significant since it is my lowest weight in all of 2009 and it is lower than my weight ever was in 2008! My lowest 2008 weight was 256. My new BMI is 40.99.

I am definitely seeing change in my food choices and my will power. I bought my family donuts on Saturday morning because my daughter was begging for them and they haven't had them in a while. I got 2 extra and I ate 0! Side note: I am the only overweight member of the family, and my children eat very healthfully, so things like this are truly a once or twice a year treat.

Also - when I am out and starving, I am making much better food choices. After church we realized we needed to run my child to the doctor. After all that was over it was 3 and I hadn't eaten lunch. He had at least had some raisins and pretzels, but we were both starving. I got a grilled chicken sandwich. From one of my favorite burger places, too.

My next goal is to get below 250. I'll just concentrate on that for now!
