Poundage

Wow my least favorite topic. I'm not even sure that I should do this, then again maybe it will be motivational for me.

Okay so I haven't really thought much about goals or what types of exercise I want to do yet. What I have thought about is....

Well my sister called about 2 day's ago and said hey moms birthday is coming up and she would love a family photo (of us adults, and all the grand kids). This is going to be a surprise present for my mom, she's been asking for this for about 2 years and we have yet to do it. So we set a date, in a week and a half from today to take the picture.
I'm totally excited to be doing this for my mom, I'm not however excited to take the picture. I haven't had a professional picture taken of me sense high school. : (
I'm not at a place where I feel good enough to take a picture that's going to be hanging on a WALL for god knows how long.

So I decided I would weigh myself this morning and I have gained about 6.8 pounds in the last 4 months.

So that's what i know and this is what went down about 8 months ago.

Okay so about 8 months ago some friends of mine started doing WW and convinced me to try it with them (and at the time) I was training to run a half marathon.

I did pretty well the first month and lost 20 pounds quickly but after hitting 20 pounds it took me about 3 or 4 months to lose 9.2 more pounds.

And now

I'm still glad to be over that 20 pound mark because even with my current weight I have lost 21.2 pounds.
I want to get back on WW and try to lose more weight, I would love to lose about 30 to 35 more pounds. I would love to get out and run 2 to 3 day's a week at least 3 or 4 miles each time and go walking 2 or 3 more days for at least 3 miles every time.

I'm seriously considering doing Atkins for the next week and a half to try and lose a quick 10 pounds before we take this picture. The truth is I'm going to start Atkins TOMORROW, when I've done Atkins in the past I notice the weight lose right away in my face, and I would love to look skinner there then anywhere else (for the picture).

I will try to be good about posting my progress...I will definitely be good about posting it as long as I'm happy with my results. : P

Well here's the most painful part about this posting

My current weight lose 21.2 pounds
My current weight 168.0 pounds
My goal weight 130 pounds

Well GOOD LUCK TO ME!!!
