Friday Weigh In - First week of the last 10 pounds

I am down .4 pounds. 9.6 pounds to lose. But I only started on Tuesday. I will not beat myself up over this amount. I have a COMPLETE week to lose more by next Friday. I have been fighting a cold it seems, and so I haven't had much energy to do DAILY exercise like I intended to do. But, I ran on Tuesday, and running an hill training on Wednesday. Yesterday I walked a lot, and lugged Courtney in her seat. I think I got about 20 minutes. :D

Tonight I am going to run at dinner time (kids having their pizza night, then I am splurging tonight with hubby. On Sunday I have a 12 km run to do. I look forward to increasing my distance again!

I am ready for a great week ahead!

Blog update for December 2008

Here I am up about 10 pounds (almost 10 pounds) and feeling yuck. Not enough running or caring about what I am putting into my mouth. That is all going to stop! I am going to knock those pounds away, plus a final 10! I am looking forward to a fresh start! I want to wear my size 6 jeans again!

Blog update for October 2008

Well, I so obviously did not reach my weight loss goal below. I think because my body is holding onto the last bits of fat for breastfeeding. I didn't anticipate feeding Coco for this long. So, I go with the flow. I ran my first half marathon on October 12, 2008. 1 hour 53 minutes and 36 seconds. Awesome experience. I have now signed up for a second half marathon on February 15, 2009. I am still 150 pounds. So, I have maintained this weight for over 4 months. I am feeling strong.

Blog update for September 7th, 2008.
It is quite possible that I will be at my 'ultimate' goal weight of 135 for my 37th birthday on October 7th, and quite possibly for my half marathon race on the 12 or 19th of October. I finally broke past a 3 month plateau and I feel fabulous. I started back on my program in full force on September 2nd. I am feeling super and really pumped about reaching my goal!

Blog Update for July 5th, 2008:
*I am feeling great at 150 pounds, and getting more lean with my running. I am feeling pretty muscular and therefore feel quite good at where I am at for now.

*My pre-pregnancy weight: 204 pounds
*Top weight of my last EVER pregnancy: 238 pounds

*My current mini-goal is a weight of 199
(to lose 19 pounds to get under 200 pounds for the last time!!) Goal achieved: January 29th 2008 in 4 weeks

Note: I just want to add that I had already lost 19 pounds before the start of the Go-Be-Gone 2008. When I finish the contest I will be adding those 19.2 pounds onto to my total weight loss.

Started Goo-Be-Gone:
January 1st, 2008 (weight 218.8) in my sixth week postpartum and I am currently nursing on demand.
Goo-Be-Gone 2008 ends in 3 months:
April 1, 2008 (hopefully 20-30 pounds lost by then!)
**** At the halfway mark I have lost about 30 pounds (and have already met my original goal for April 1st 2008)
I hope to lose between 10-15 more pounds by April 1st for the FINAL weigh in.****I met this goal 2 weeks before the end of GBG.
