Update on my Turtle Weight

Hey that rhymes! I'm a poet and don't know it. How much wood would a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood? HA! Okay I'll stop.

So I'm still chugging along with my weight loss. I'll admit it hasn't been easy and these last 10 pounds are proving to be my hardest yet. I've been in the 140s for a few months. I'll lose, lose, lose, to only stand still/maintain or gain a pound the next week. It's frustrating and discouraging but I refuse to give up.

So far this year I've lost 26 pounds! 26 pounds!!! When I see that number it makes me feel so proud of myself!

I set out a goal this year to finally take control of my weight and to live a healthier lifestyle. I want to be a role model for my daughter, I want her to see her Mommy eating healthy, exercising and enjoying life. I don't want her to see me just sitting on the sidelines cheering on everyone else, I want her to see me in the game, so to speak.

So I'll leave you with these transformation pictures. The last one isn't the best. I'm always behind the camera so I have few face shots of myself. HA! Kinda funny my hair styles have changed a lot this year too. Still not sure of these bangs.

OH, you look great! I like the bangs too! I'm in the same position, I'm getting rid of the last few lbs. Sometimes you have to play with your calorie intake. There is a chance you might not be eating enough. You might try it and see. Add in a few extra calories. Now, that doesn't mean to scarf down cookies and ice cream LOL!!! Make your calories count ;)

Oh, now I see ho wmuch you have lost! And you have done it slowly so it will be easier to keep it off.
Here's a little advice from when I lost weight a few years ago. When you reach the piont where it's just not coming off, just be happy with that! I got down to 130 for a day once and I was still saying just 10 more. Seriously, now I say I would be happy to weigh even 150! I'm sure you look great. It is so easy to get caught up in perfection when we think about our bodies. Enjoy the 140's since you can and you couldn't before! Good job!
