Ok so how many blogs and vlogs are going to start with those 4 words? Well for me this has never been more true. Although I started my journey at the end of last year I still have the most part of my weight to lose this year. By the end of 2011 I had already lost 40lbs, 31.8 of those lbs were lost since October when I started the Dr. Poon so I think that's pretty good. Today was my first weigh in for 2012 and I lost 4lbs now there is a good and a bad the good is the scale now says 218.6 and that means I am now out of the 20's and I'm happy to see that, but my problem is I lost 5lbs of water weight and gained 2.8lbs of fat ??? What say that again? Man oh man that sucks but the Dr. was happy he said it's ok to gain over Christmas, I mean I was not thinking I was going to have any kind of loss for my first weigh in for the new year just because of Christmas and New Year but hey what can I say. So now I'm sitting here and I am thinking about my goals and my resolutions and this is what I have come up with I still have about 60-70 lbs that I want to lose so that is goal number #1 for my New Year new me I need to lose all of it by the end of the year. #2 I really really want to run a 5k I have started with a couch to 5k app on my iPhone and I really like it so again by the end of the year I want to be able to run a 5k. #3 for me is something I always strive to do but I just add it in every year I want to be the best mom and wife I can be and part of that will have to do with losing the weight so I can be here a lot longer for my 4 great kids and wonderful hubby.
Well cheers to the New Year and cheers to me.
Hope everyone had a great year and is heading in the right direction to have an even better New Year.
XOXO

Christmas and my update
Ok so I have not been keeping up with my blog I think it's because of my new found love for m Vlog its been good because I have been able to watch other people move along in their weight loss journey and it's been fun.
So I am trying to get my blog back updated, I missed my Birthday weigh in that was on Dec 08 and I hit my 30lb loss I even went over it I made 31.8lb so I was super happy about that so my official weigh in that day was 221.8 that mean I only have 22lbs to lose to be in One-derland I can't wait for that day to come I don't thin I could ever be More happy then when that day hits. I think that since it took me 8 weeks to lose 31LBS I think that it will take me about another 8 weeks to lose 22 just because I know I am not going to have any more 11lb losses or 8lb losses so I'm going to try for mid feb and see what happens.
No that being said I also have to account for the gains that I may or may not have for example last weeks weight in I weighed in at 222.6lbs and that is a gain of 0.8lbs not much of anything but Dr. Stephen was very happy about that because he said I lost 2.8lbs of fat but was up 2 something of water so he called it a loss but in my eyes I see it as a gain on the scale. This is where I find that scale at the Dr.s much better because after stepping on my scale at home and crying because of a gain I got there and it was a great loss so I'm thinking about getting one from the office. The Dr. also said that he would not be mad at a gain at this time of year he would even be happy because he says he knows people are going to sneak a little big of treats from Santa so not too worry lol.
Anyway so this weekend was Christmas and I 100% cheated this weekend Saturday Sunday and even Monday today is Tuesday the 27th and I am back to normal but I did a sneak peek at the scale and I don't know why I wanted to torture myself but I did it anyway and ya I was up a lot so I am back on track as of today no more bad food and I hope I can flush everything out of my system before next week Thursday.
I went to a family Christmas party and I had all my aunts and cousins who have not seen me in a bit complement me on how good I look and even ask how much I have lost that felt so good I just want to keep that good feeling and lose the rest of what I want to lose that way I will feel good for the rest of my life. ;)
