It’s official, today the scale said 209.5 making it official. I have lost 20 pounds since I started my diet in mid December.

A flat week of weight loss for me.  I started the week at 211 and finished the week at 211.  No real excuse for this.  My portion sizes were a bit larger than normal and I just plain ate too much.  On Thursday I even had 3 beers.  So, not the best week.  I will try to bear down this week and get it done.  I haven’t been logging my food lately, so perhaps I will try that again.  I may have been getting a little over confident since I am so far ahead of my goal (right now I am 3 weeks ahead of schedule).  But my bad habits are re-emerging and I will have to be a bit more disciplined to keep them at bay.  Since my goal is lifestyle change, I will have to work harder to maintain my discipline.

A good week.  I was able to recover from the previous week of being out of town and not eating very well to a good week where I walked during the day and ate healthy lunches and snacks and controlled my appetite.  I am down to 211 lbs today, on Valentine’s Day.  A total weight loss of 19 lbs since mid December.  Not bad if I do say so myself.  Of course with that said, I still look pretty fat and will have to continue to work.  I realized this week, that even though I have lost 19 lbs, I still am a “fatty fat.”  Don’t get me wrong, I definitely feel better, I just don’t feel like I look any better.  I may need to readjust my weight loss goals down further; maybe down to 185 or even 180.  This project is going to take longer than I thought.

Out of town last week for work for a few days. A few too many drinks and way too many calamari. Gained a half pound for the week. Looks like I am falling behind schedule to make my goal of 195 by 3/29. I will have to bare down and get it done. I am not quite half way, but with 18 pounds to go. Wish me luck. Its getting harder to avoid the fatty foods now. Doing good for lunch, Subway or Publix, but evenings are getting harder.
