WW Weeks 15 & 16

These weeks: I know it's been two full weeks since my last update. My 15th week I only lost 0.2 and was really down about it, probably because I was in a bad mood- plus I was feeling very bloated and knew my loss would be low any way. When I only lose a little bit like that, I don't know, I just feel embarrassed about it being so insignificant. In reality I should be happy that there's a loss, but when so many things around me are going on that upset me- it's really hard to be too enthused about a .2 loss. After that small loss and the bloated feeling, I knew this week would be better and would help make up for an even out last week's weigh in. In only 5 more pounds I will have lost 50! :) Then it'll just be 10 more until I have only 100 to go- which sounds like a lot (and it is), but is quite closer to goal than my starting weight.

WW Week 14

This week: Was an on and off week. Found out that my younger cousin killed himself on Friday- but I didn't let my emotions drive my eating. That was a small plus for me. My mom made pork chops and lamb chops this week when I was over, and I actually ate them along with the family. Sometimes I feel like I need to restrict my diet like crazy, but it was really great getting to eat some of the same things as my family was. I am proud of reaching 40 lbs lost, but I feel hopeless sometimes because I still have so far to go. But I am out of the 280's so should just keep going!

WW Week 13

This week: An okay loss considering the week ended with a wedding- and let me tell you! Food at weddings are not chosen because they are healthy in any sense! Sheesh. But, I was really good, even though everyone around me was pigging out. I even passed on wedding cake so that I could have a lower point alternative at home. That's a HUGE victory for me. The old me would've had 2 pieces. Almost to 40 lbs down! I'm all smiles about this! Next week, my goal is to try Zumba- it's a dance/exercise class. Everyone keeps saying how much they love it and I have to try it. Found out the place near me offers the first class free to see if you like it. Score!
