Weigh-In Day!!

I am very excited to say that I have lost 4lbs this week!!  Yay go me, and it was all done in a healthy way.  I didn't get in as much excercise as I wanted to, but I did keep up with all the food that I was eating and that has really helped me.  As of now I am right on track to meet my first goal of losing 50lbs when I start school on August 15.  I figured it out and it is roughly 4lbs a week.  I know that I can do that.  I am planning on going to the beach the first of august with my husband and baby and I don't want to feel like everyone is staring at me.  It is one of the worst feelings that you can have and you just don't want to go anywhere because of your weight and the fact that people do stare.  When I take my daughter with me they mostly talk to her, so that makes me feel a lot better.  And I dread going to the doctors because they always have to weigh me on the "other" scale because the one that slides does not go that far.  I just feel like in thier minds they are saying wow, she weighs that much!!

But it is all going to change because I am \moving in a better direction, and this weight will be off of me before I know it.  The x box is supposed to be here tomorrow and I CAN'T WAIT!!!  I know that it will be tough, but it is something that I want to do and it really intrests me, especially that part that my little girl might do it with me, or at least think that we are dancing.  All I can say is that I am so tired of feeling this way, being so out of breath all the time, not being able to walk long distances without thinking that I am going to die.  I will do it if I have to, but when I get home, it's like I have to stay on the couch forever to  recooperate.  Going into nusring I am pretty sure that I will be working 12 hour shifts and if I don't get a lot of it off before I finish and start a job, I won't be able to make it.  So that is my plan, to work out 6 days a week at least an hour, with a warm up on the tremill and then some hard core cardio.  Then alternate with walking on the tredmill and strength training.  I got the plan, and know some of the foods I should eat, so now all I have to do is stick to it.  And with this determination that I have this time, I am sure that I will make it. 

Good luck to all of you out there!!
