Lost exactly one pound, which puts me at exactly 169! I did it!!! Yippee!! I am now trying to think of what my reward will be. Either a new bra with a fitting, or possibly some guitar technique books. Can’t quite decide 🙂
Snowy icy slop today. It snowed several inches, and now we are getting freezing rain – so the snow has a thick frozen crust on top. Very difficult to shovel….
Well, I lost 1.8 pounds to put me exactly at 170. I was going to cut off my hair to give myself another ounce to get into the next decade LOL!
I have been struggling the last couple days with food. Not sure if it is PMS or what, but I find myself starting to mindlessly eat. We have some Sun chips and reduced fat potato chips left in the house from the super bowl, so it is tempting to nibble on those. I have just been really hungry. Might be from the Firm workouts. There was an extra workout this week on the Firm calender, and the Cardio Overdrive workout was really intense! Geez, it went so fast – but I got through it without falling over, which was good 🙂
I am getting my next NS order on Monday, I think. I am now going to switch over to every other day with NS foods. A little nervous – but I know I can do it!
Weigh in day today! I have been really focused this last week, and was rewarded with a 2 pound loss!! Yippee!
That makes 76.4 pound down. The weather has been warm the last couple days, so I could wear my new leather jacket. It looks really sharp! NSV – I was at Lowe’s, in the self checkout line. I glanced up and noticed a tv security view, and didn’t even recognize myself!
Went out for dinner tonight. I had a grilled chicken sandwich, and I got some waffle fries. I haven’t had fries in so long. They were very good – but I wasn’t used to the grease. Don’t want to do that very often.
Well- the day after Christmas, and I had my normal weigh in. I lost 2 pounds! I am totally shocked. I stepped on the scale several times, and moved it around just to make sure I was reading it correctly. Must be some kind of fluke LOL!
Back on track yesterday and doing well. I think that I will buy myself the Firm Transfirmation as a reward for getting into the 170s.
Well – lost another 1.8 pounds!! WooHoo! That means I am in the 170s with a little real estate cushion!
Getting lots of snow today, which means exercise in the form of shoveling. My own driveway and the one at my flip house. Phew!
Well, the results from Turkey Day are in. I lost 0.4 pounds! With the big loss of 4.4 pounds last week and the holiday weekend, I was pleased to have a loss.
Only 1.5 pounds until I get into the 170s! Or, *back* into the 170s LOL!
Looking at how well I have been eating as of late. I follow nutrisystem for all but about 3 meals per week. 2 breakfasts and one dinner out each week. I guess that makes me about 85% on plan by paper, but since those meals out are calorie counted for – they don’t hurt my progress.
I still struggle with the dinner. For example, we were out last night (DH’s choice for winning the football picks) – and I just really wanted a fried seafood meal. They had a fried scallop and clam strips dinner, and it just sounded so good! It was a real struggle for me to not give in and get that.
I ended up getting roasted pork tenderloin and gravy with a baked potato (dry). It came with a small cup of applesauce. I portioned out what I needed to fuel my body and it was quite tasty – and I didn’t feel deprived or anything. I am not sure what I would have done if weigh in day wasn’t today. 🙂
Well, I gained .8 pounds this week. Not totally sure why. I really hope it is not the start of a plateau. I already consume only 1300 calories a day. Will just have to see what the next week brings. I ended up drinking some extra light egg nog yesterday, a mini binge – I suppose, but had to stop that in its tracks right away.
My Nutrisystem food order is delayed. It was supposed to be here today. I was hoping to have it tomorrow at the latest so that I could eat the whole weekend being 100% NS. Looks like it might not be here until Monday. I do have enough dinners and close to enough desserts, but am totally out of breakfasts and lunches.
Here is a pic taken in Florida at about 203 (Late January)
And last week at 185.5
Lost 3.4 pounds this week! I donated blood yesterday, so maybe one pound of this loss is from the pint they took. But even factoring that in, that is 2.4 pounds. A little concerned that this is too much for a week, but not complaining too much. 🙂
In viewing my food on fitday.com – I seem to lose more when I bump my calories up to the 1350 range, rather than 1200. Not too surprising to me, considering how much I have to lose. I just don’t want to plateau again… please!!!
Overall, I am pleased with nutrisystem. It does work, and how they pack all that extra fiber and protein into low cal foods is beyond me!
