Week 9

I've noticed a patten over the course of the last 9 weeks.  I generally have two really great weeks of weight loss followed by two weeks of so-so weight loss.  This week I had an amazing loss of 5.5lbs!  I'll guess next week will be about 2 or 3lbs then the following two weeks will be 1 or 2lbs.  Now that I have this figured out I won't be as sad when the scale is not being my friend!  I also know it's not healthy or realistic to keep losing 5.5lbs every week.

My mom asked me if I was going to adjust  my 40lbs goal since I'll most likely reach it before my 40th birthday.  I don't want to put too much pressure on myself so my answer is no.  Once I reach the 40 I will plan a phase 2 goal.

I played dress up this weekend which consisted of trying on all my smaller clothes.  I have a pair of jeans that a so close to being worn outside of the house.  My goal this week is to lose enough weight to wear them this coming weekend.  Eating right and exercise!  That's the plan.
