12th Weigh In

The scales this morning reported a 2.4# loss during last week. I think this is the smallest amount of weight I've lost in any single week on NS. Which is great! I'm out of the 220's and down to 217.6 . During the week I met one of my mini goals (fitting back into my Cardillo lifting belt), and I also fit into size 33 jeans as well. NEVER thought I'd be able to do that again. So another great week on NS. Another great week at the gym. Time now for breakfast, an early walk with some of the hounds, and then off to the gym.

11th Weigh In

Down another 3.5#'s to an even 220. I've now lost 55 pounds in 11 weeks (an average of 5 pounds per week, .71 pounds per day). One of my original goals was to loose back down to my college weight which was usually between 210-220. So I've reached a mini-goal/milestone on my way back down to 200. While I'm in much better shape & have lost quite a bit, 200 may no longer be my stopping point. I think that once I get there I may still have some work to do. If that's the case, then so be it, I'll continue on with the diet until I feel I'm at the weight/fitness level I want to be at. No sense in getting this close and not going all the way. This diet/lifestyle change has been one of the easiest, and best things I've ever done. Time to eat and then get to the gym!

10th Weigh In

Monday morning and time to grab a weight check. This morning I am down to 223.5. That's a loss of 3.5#'s over the last week. Not to bad at all considering I had to alter my typical routine, eat one off plan lunch, and discovered smoked goat cheese and sheep cheese. I've now lost a total of 51.5 pounds. That's 5.15 pounds per week on average & .74 pounds per day. With today's weight I now qualify for a 50# Nutribear! Next week's goal is to try to break outta the 220's!

Time to eat breakfast, have my single cup of coffee and make my way to Fire House Gym.

9th Weigh In

I jumped onto the scales this morning (again, that's a lie, I very carefully stepped onto the scales while holding onto the bathroom counter top for balance, & yes I did let go of the counter before weighing) to check my progress. I lost 6.1#'s last week. I did get a hair cut, so that may contribute a little, but still, not to shabby. My current weight is 227. I think this is the first time I've been in the 220's since around 2005. One of my main goals was to get back to college weight which was typically around 215-220. Closer every day. So I'm down 48#'s since starting the program, and down 61 from my all time high of about 288.

Time to eat and then off to the gym!
