Weigh In | 12.20.10

December 20, 2010

Starting weight: 455
Last weigh in: 362
Today: 360
Loss this week: -2
Total lost: -95 pounds

Totally did a happy dance after I got off the scale. I missed 2 workouts this week due to the snow and ice, and am on my second week of eating more carbs than I had been all year. My dad and sister are coming to visit between Christmas and New Years, so I’m not sure if I’ll get on the scale again until after the new year. Not that I plan on gaining weight, but I simply don’t think I want to stress about the scale during the Holiday’s.

    Well done! Due to crazy holiday schedules and incredible opportunities for indulgence, it is So Hard to stay on track this time of year. Great work–a 2lb loss is AWESOME! This is so much more accomplishment than a Biggest Loser 15-20lb weekly loss because you’re still living life in the process.

    Woohoo! 95 Pounds down…wow that is impressive! I wish I could learn to stay away from the scale over the holiday. That’s a toughie. Keep up the great work.

    Awesome job chica! I know how much this meant to you. You just totally gave yourself an early Christmas gift!

    • http://skinnyemmie.com Skinny Emmie

      I did! Shall we dare say “it’s the gift that keeps on giving” or is that restricted to the jelly of the month club?

    I totally admire your dedication and results! Your blog is a real inspiration. This time of year is so hard for all of us who are trying to lose weight or even to just maintain a loss. My hope for you is the same for as it is for myself….to have a lot of fun during the holidays, enjoy being with family and friends, and to also eat carefully but also eat joyfully! There are a lot of good, tasty foods that are also healthy and can be incorporated into some great holiday menus. Good luck, and enjoy!

      i love how you put that… “eat carefully but also eat joyfully”
      I must adopt this!

    Keep on, keeping on. You are amazing.

    I just did Day 2 of Week 4 of C25K tonight and every time I want to take it easy I think of all you have done. You are my fitness inspiration.

    You are such an inspiration! Congrats on your loss–I’m glad that you’re still successful while eating carbs. I’ve noticed that I have less of an appetite if I eat low-carb but it’s not sustainable for me. I just love carbs too much too eliminate them!
