Weight Loss Update

I weighed myself yesterday and I've lost 74 pounds! WHE HOO!! Only 76 more to go to reach my July goal. I really want to lose at least 150 before July because my nut told me if I had lost that much by then he would feel more comfortable about me getting pregnant. The plan was to start trying when Izaiah turns two on July 14th.

While I'm still loosing weight I think I've hit a little stall. I've only lost 10 pounds since last month. If I continue to lose about 10 pounds per month I will be pretty close to my 150 loss goal by July but its cutting it pretty close. So I'm kick starting my weight loss this week by really buckling back down on my diet. I have not been getting enough water, I know because my skin is really dry right now, so I'm gonna be trying to drink at least 64 oz per day. I'm drinking a super high protein shake for breakfast every morning and eating a good lunch and dinner. I've been cheating and eating crackers and cheese. I'm cutting out the crackers and only eating the cheese.

I still have a long road ahead but things are lookin' pretty good. I think I'm losing weight from the top down. My bra size has shrunk from a 42D to a 38C and soon to be a B cup again. I'm able to wear my t-shirts from high school. Hello XL! So nice to see you again!! My old 3XL t-shirts are like nighties, going almost all the way to my knees! My face is where I see the most dramatic change. I look in the mirror and its like, "Hey there you are! You look so pretty! I remember that face!" My double chin is almost all gone and suddenly I have a neck! I never realized how fat my neck was!!

My waistline seems to be my stubborn area right now; while its gone down a lot, I still have a spare tire and a lower pooch. Those size 18 jeans are calling my name but I'm not quite there yet.....But I'll be there soon!
