in conclusion... 2012

so i went back and reviewed by blogging over the past year.  and i must say, its been quite the journey.  i started the year weighing in a 140.6 lbs.  eek!  and at the beginning of the year i set my GW at 125 lbs, on the up side i not only reached this original GW but I surpassed it.   but somewhere throughout the year it just wasn't enough and I changed my GW to 110 lbs (which was my original UGW)... then changing my UGW to 102 lbs.  well i didn't quite make it to my GW of 110 lbs, but i did get close at the beginning of December, weighing in at 111 lbs!   unfortunately the holidays spoiled my weight loss intentions. :-(  but all is good.  I am still optimistic.  today for the end of the year I weighed in at 114.6 lbs, which means I lost a total of 26 lbs over the course of 2012!  yah!  and if i were to count my 111 lbs weigh in, i would've lost 29.6 lbs over the year, almost 30 lbs!!  but i am not 111 lbs now, so i am not counting it. :-(

determined

i am sooo mad at myself, i just let go the past few weeks.... i was sooo close.... soo damn close.   now i am up to 115.2 lbs...  i just want to cry.   i was only 1 pound away from my GW, and i went and screwed it all up.  but am i determined now... i will fast until New Years Eve, and then only have a glass or two of champagne.  hopefully this will get me back on track and closer to my goal.   so here's to coffee, tea and water! bottoms up ;-)

111... even!

i'm 111 lbs even!   one more icky pound to go and i'll finally be at my GW!   time to buckle down, i am determined to get this last pound off of me by friday mornings weigh in.  which is when i leave for NYC, and then i will be without a scale until the following weds morning....  i can totally do this.  i've come way to far to give in now.  so i'm depending upon my 1 day diet for the next 4 days, except that today i am skipping lunch.  between cleaning the house, decorating the house, shopping and laundry, i am hoping i stay to busy to think about eating until dinner. hoping for the best week ever... i can do this... i will do this...  it will be done!

111.4

down to 111.4 lbs...  only 0.2 lbs lost each past two days... still a loss i guess... i just like seeing bigger results...  but at least i am getting there.  i've completed 6 days on the 1 day diet... 4 more to go... and then Friday its NYC bound! please please please let me see 110...
