2 More gone

Jul 02, 2023

Well I lost two more lbs... only 1 more to go for this week... today is a rest day from exercise so I will not be working out... I do plan on going to to a cookout today even though I can't eat anything, I can get out the house and socialize which will also be good for me to do... I am going to take some greek yogurt so I will have something I can eat with me... What do you guys do when you go to a event? Do you take food with you?

OMG

Jul 01, 2023

I am so happy that I can officially say that not only am I under 300 I am now 289... yahhhh mee... I have been trying to get under 300 lbs for 6 months... I would lose a few and gain them back over and over again which is why I decided to do the revision.... I am so happy...think I said that alredy... So today is the day for me to set my goals for the week ahead... My goal is to lose 3 to 5 lbs next week and get ready for my speaking engagements... I have one on the 12th and another one on the 15th and then I have a seminar I have to support the last weekend of this month... my goal for the month is to lose 14 lbs ... Which is my plan for each month. 

 

My goal weight is 170 right now and so that is the weight I would like to be by Feb 16...my 55th birthday... so as of today I have 119 lbs to get rid of and eight months to do it so that equals to around 14 to 15 lbs to month.  So that is approxiamently 3 to 4 lbs a week... I think it is doable and not losing too much at a time. I do plan on talking to my doctor to talk it over.... I also talked to a nutritionist yesterday to get me on track with how I show be eating going forward... so I am really trying to get everything in order... This week is week 3 after revision... everything has been doing well haven't been really sick I am always thirsty... and when I drink something is like my mouth is dry but other than that I am good. So what are your plans for this weekend? I am celebrating my mom's 102 birthday today and and I was invited to a cookout tomorrow... we will see if I go or not lol... hope you all have a great weekend!

Well today still have stiches in... they had scheduled me with the nurse practioner so she couldn't cut out my stiches as Kaiser didn't do my surgery however I can schedule with my primary care doctor and they can take them out... Going to have to call today to see if there is anything available prior to July 20th or I can take them out myself as we were shown how to do it... someone else suggested going to urgent care... but this isn't an emergency....I have already completed my chair exercises for today and plan on taking a walk on the treadmill as the temp here has been HOTTTT... fininsh up a coaching program and try to get some rest....so what are your plans for today?

Another one bites the dust

Jun 27, 2023

Whoohoo another lb down... my goal was 3lbs for the week so I have made it.... now to keep active to hit another goal... in 18 days I have speaking engagement and I want to be at 275 by then and that is 18 lbs that I have to lose... if I stick to my current activities I will be right on track but I have to stay focused... and get other things in place like getting my hair and nails done and let's not forget to find something nice to wear... think I am going to wait until the 10th to get the outfit ... so many things to do that can distract me but it's cool we are laser focused now... I have a goal of losing 97 lbs by my bithday 2/16 so that way I can at least be at 200 lbs by then... don't want to turn 55 at this weight and have all of these medical issues. I also have 5 websites to build... and all in one system and another coaching program... time to get back to it... I will let you guys know what the doctor says today about these HBP pills and everything as well... hope you guys have a productive Tuesday....

Changing Habits

Jun 24, 2023

Good Morning World,

 

When I had surgery the 1st time I was working a full time job and had a business on the side. No I am a full time entrepreneur so things are way different. I run a marketing agency so I am at a computer the majority of the day... my day normally starts at 4am and I may not be finished to 6 or 7 pm according to what projects I am working on. So I have to find a way to break up my day.... so I can get exercise in... I have better support this time...but it's all on me whether I succeed or not.... Happy Saturday everyone what is your weekly goal? Since I had my surgery on a Saturday I am making new goals every week. So this week my goal is to get more active.. I need to be able to walk to the end of my street and back and I need to start today...and to lose 3 more pounds.... What is your goals for this week?
