Phase II

I’ve done it! I’ve reached my major goal, even a week early. I’ve totally re-written my goals, updated my weight tracker, and I’m ready to move on from this point. I went from 205 and being obese, to 159 and no longer being over weight in less than 5 months.

Even though  its the holiday season, I plan on totally keeping to my way of eating. I’m going to start drinking more water, because I’m always very dehydrated.  I really need to work on that, it’s always been a problem for me.

I’ve been craving a lot of food lately, and it’s concerning me a little. I’m sure it will pass, and I don’t really think I’m even over eating. I’m starting to feel guilty whenever I put anything in my mouth, and some days I don’t eat enough, and others I do eat more than what I’d like to. I haven’t gained, so I’m not super worried, I’m just going to look forward from this point!

I can’t wait to see my progress in a few months from now, I never expected to make it this far. The difference is amazing, and to be 130… I know I can do it! I’ve already lost 46 pounds, what’s another 29? I just have to keep this up. And I will, for life.

I’d like to thank everyone on this site too, if it wasn’t for the people here and the tools offered, I wouldn’t be as far along as I am now. Thank you!

Success.

I haven’t been on this site much lately. I feel bad, but I don’t feel that I need it as much anymore. I’ve totally changed my eating lifestyle, and it isn’t a challenge to maintain. I’d like to be here to support others that are just beginning or are struggling in their journeys but with things going on, I don’t really have time now.

I’m almost to my first major goal. Almost 45 pounds gone, and almost to the point where my BMI is in the healthy range. Only 3 more pounds to go, and I’ll finally not be over weight. It feels strange, like I’m almost reaching what I’ve always felt as the impossible. But I don’t want to stop when I get there. I want to start a brand new set of goals, and finally set my goal weight. When I reach that, I think I’ll be more active here since I’ll be starting anew.

I feel so much thinner and happier with myself, but there are parts of me I still want to work on. This whole time I’ve never exercised or had a routine, and I never really want that. Maybe something unofficial like sit-ups in the morning, because I really want to tone my stomach. Having a flat tummy is one of my dreams, and it still feels a little far off. But I think I’ve proven to myself that anything I want is possible, I mean I’ve made it this far.

I’m proud of myself, and I’ll hopefully be active here soon.
