November 6th, 2016: Weigh-In Week #21: Making Goals and SMASHING them!!

Well as I'm sure you can tell from the title, I reached a goal. Last week I weighed in at 302.4 pounds. I didn't make it to the gym AT ALL this week because I'm a loser. Lol. I've just been super busy unpacking and organizing and then changing my and reorganizing. Haha.

My diet hasn't been amazing, but I have kept under my calorie goal every single day. I've just been more relaxed with myself and not quite as strict as what I was being. I just want to make sure I allow myself a little bit of the dark side every now and then so that I don't spin out of control and have some kind of crazy binge or something. So Monday was Halloween, and I seriously ate some candy. In fact, I had candy for dinner. Lol. I had chocolate! It was wonderful!! Lol.

I'm still struggling with eating out too much. I really thought with as many times as I ate out and the candy on Monday and then some Rice Krispee Mini's almost every day this week....yea, it was bad. But oh, oh, they were soooo good. Haha. But anyways..I thought this was going to be a zero loss kind of week. Shoot, yesterday for lunch I ate out with my family and I had a chicken strip, mozzarella sticks, a few onion rings and 2 potato skins!

So...needless to say, the scale was a terrifying place to be this morning! But I sucked it up and hopped on there to take my doom! Lol. But oh no, no doom for me! 299.0. What in the world! Three and a half pounds! I seriously thing this super big change up in my diet and exercise has confused the crap out of my body and somehow allowed me to continue losing weight. I have NEVER lost this much weight without exercising. And I really don't expect it to last. So I took my butt to the gym today. And I was super proud of myself for going. I did 30 minutes on the Arc Trainer and I felt GOOD. So I hopped on the treadmill. Bad idea. After 10 minutes my feet were stinging so I got off. And then the torture hit! They were on FIRE! I mean, I haven't felt some pain that fierce in a while.

I had to do my weekly grocery shopping, and I should have gone home and changed shoes, but I didn't. So now I'm sitting here in quite a bit of pain, but it's all good cuz I'm in the 200's!!!!! Lol. 72 pounds gone! Now my next big goal is to hit the 100 pounds lost. :)

I've tried some pretty amazing soup recipes this week. There is a website called Eating Well and they have some really good stuff on there. I made Chicken Chili for the first time. It was super yummy! But it was also SUPER spicy! LOL.

Alright, I've got lots to get done before bed. Y'all have an AMAZING week and make healthier choices! ;)
