70 lbs Gone!


This week I lost what I gained last week plus the .2 lbs from the previous week (1.4 lbs), reaching a total loss of 70 lbs!  (Naked weight was 2 lbs less than my official weigh in.)  I didn't do anything to celebrate the total loss last night.  I actually fell ill, feeling overheated and lightheaded.  I still felt weak this morning so I only did a 10 minute workout.

Best Burn of the Week




One month from today marks my one year anniversary of hopping on this long and winding road to wellness (the night I signed up for Weight Watchers).  I've been asking on Facebook and G+ what I should do to celebrate.  I've received responses from eating out for a special meal to going to the spa.  I'm leaning towards the spa idea.  What would you do or have you done to celebrate your first year on this type of journey?

  1. First do a powerful workout to celebrate the fact that you were not able to do that one year ago and then get a pedicure or manicure or hair cut or something to pamper you and relax you..... dont include food in your celebration. Amazing weight loss btw!! many blessings on your continued journey in the name of Jesus. :-)

  5. I reward myself every 5 lbs that I lose. It helps to keep me motivated. This time, I bought a nice shirt. A couple times ago, I bought myself a nice life planner. I went to the spa one time too. I think it's important to reward yourself, other than with food. Great job on the amazing loss!
