Hot for the Holidays Post #1

Category: Hot for the Holidays, Weight, Weight Loss Meme, Weight Tracking | 8 Comments

Like many of my fellow bloggers I have joined the challange over at Baby Tea Leaves! The group goal is for us to lose 500 pounds by December 5th. My personal goal is to reach 130 by then. So let’s see. Last Friday I weighed 148.5 and today I weigh 145.5! WOOT! That’s three pounds. I just really hope I can keep it off over the weekend. My worst is the weekends! During the work week I can maintain more willpower. But when I am home and trying to feed my husband as well, it’s hard. He is a bad influence on me and I need to stop letting him do that. I can’t eat just because HE is hungry or eat out just because it’s the weekend. I also need to be drinking as much water at home as I do when I am at work. So that’s my goal for the weekend, to drink as much water as I would if I were at work!

    wow, you’re doing great, leigh. i didn’t lose anything so far this week. got a bit of swelling going on right now. i did get a little exercise w my hip hop/jazz class on tues.

    i totally know what you mean about husbands having an affect on your weight loss efforts. my husband could eat non-stop and his son, too. i’m trying to break free of bad eating habits and help my girls, too…but it’s hard.

    Ciara, trying to break eating habit is hard when you feel like you’re alone, but we aren’t! We have each other!

    Chris, I gained weight over the weekend…again…but I also finally ended up admitting I was depressed Sunday. Hopefully now that I have I can start recovery and feel better and eat better!

    I thought about joining this too! But I’m having a hard time keeping up with your meme. Just not much time. I’m sure you will reach your goal!
