Did really good this week until Sat. I ate everything that I could on Sat. I have got to figure out a better way to handle stress.
Today is my birthday. I am the big 3-0. Old as dirt. 73 lbs smaller than the day that I turned 29. Yeehaw.
This started as my personal blog about my weight loss journey as a member of Project 486. It has since turned into a space for me to talk about the weight that my DH and I are losing together. Well, that and losing my mind while raising 4 crazy kids.

I am NOT OBESE anymore!!!
I think it just sunk in this morning that I am not obese anymore. I am so happy about all that I have accomplished! Proud doesn't even come close to describing it. It is all a bit like a dream to me. I never thought that I could pull this off, yet here I am down 141 lbs and within 29 lbs of my goal. I know that weight loss isn't the magic cure all, but it has given me so much hope that I know I can make all of my dreams come true. Watch out world, here I come!!!

Great week finally!
Weight last week: 169.5
Weight this week: 165.5
Lost this week: -4 lbs
Total lost so far: 139 lbs
Left to lose: 16.5 lbs (to orig goal) 31 lbs (to new goal)
Great on track week. I exercised like I should and ate really well. I have decided to change my goal weight. Since I started losing weight my goal has been 149 lbs. I have decided to try to get to 134.5 lbs. That will put me at a healthy weight according to my BMI. It will also bring my weight lost to an even 170 lbs. I think I can reach that goal this year. Wish me luck.

Resolutions
To make resolutions or not? That is the question. Some people say it sets them up for failure. I don't see it that way for myself. I am a resolution kind of girl. I like to make resolutions and then break them down into the steps I have to take to get where I want to be. It gives me something to strive for. It gives me a planned way to get there. Kinda like a road map I guess. Anyway, whether you make resolutions or just set goals if you are trying to get healthy we are all on the same journey. I have faith that each of us can reach our goals this year. What are your resolutions/goals? Here are a few of mine:
1. Exercise every day of 2009 for at least 15 mins the 1st three months, 30 mins the next three months, 45 mins the next three months, and 1 hour the last 3 months of the year.
2. Find a church to become active in.
3. Get my family on a budget.
4. Make at least a B+ in every class that I take this year.
5. Hit my goal weight!
6. Get my garage organized.
7. Get all of my scrapbooks caught up to the present. (They are stuck in 2004)
Good luck! We can do this.

On my way to 134.5 lbs this year.
I decided to change my goal weight to 134.5 lbs. My original goal of 149 lbs was still in an overweight BMI for me. I want to have a healthy BMI. I picked 134.5 lbs because it is right in the middle of my healthy BMI span and also because I like the 345. Yeah, I am a simple girl that is amused by simple things. I have to lose 33 lbs to get there. I know I can do that by the end of 2009. I am going to set some sort of goals for myself here. If I meet the goals that is GREAT. If I don't meet the goals then I will keep plugging along until I get there. I have lost 137 lbs so far. I know that I can lose 33 more.
