OMG 20 pounds!

Well I can't believe it! I have lost 2.5 pounds this week. This bring me down to 175! I almost started to cry. I cant believe that I have lost 20 pounds since January. I am so excited!
This week was really good. I made sure to eat well and exercise.
Next week I am out of town on business again. I go to Fredericton on Monday and Tuesday, Moncton on Wednesday and then Halifax until Monday. It is crazy! So it is going to be another hard week but I am determined to be careful this time.
So my new goal is to reach 170. I probably wont be checking in next week since I will be too busy....
so see you in two weeks!

Ahhh well.... It was fun!

Well Ottawa was a blast! I had a queu de castor, I ate smoked salmon and oysters!!! I was able to visit the city! I truly had a blast.....
So now it is back to reality and that is a bit harder... So I got weighed yesterday. As soon as I arrived I told her she would not be impressed with me. So I told her everything I ate... She was not too impressed... So she said well it is a new week and you have to jump back in the wagon. Is that even the right expression! So I get on the scale thinking at least 2 pounds more.... to my surprised I only gained 0.5 pounds. I guess all that walking did help.
I also have to say I did choose healthy selections while I was in Ottawa. I also went to they gym one morning. So I am still proud of myself.
Well so back to the grind... I want to get to my 175 this week. I think I can do it cause last night I watched the Biggest Loser and seeing how much they lost in the amount of time they did was amazing!
So I say, if they lost 100 pounds in 16 weeks I can lose 20 pounds in 6 months!
Have a good week!

Another good week

Well I am happy! I lost 2 pounds this week. I am at 177 pounds. My next goal is to be under 175.
I am sure I can make it but maybe not next week. I have to go to Ottawa for a tradeshow... It was not planned but I was asked and away I go. The only thing about being away from home is that it is so easy to not follow my plan. I know I should make good choices, but come on... Everyone around me will be eating some amazing food and all I get to eat is chicken with salad... ahhhh... The fact that I will be in a new city with I am sure amazing restaurants is driving me crazy! I want to eat fabulous foods that I don't have a chance to eat here.
We will see... I mean I don't have to lose all the weight at once but I cant wait to be at the 20 pound mark. Only 2 pounds to go!
Well stay tuned next week to see if I was able to control myself or if I totally lost it!!!
Have a great week...
