lose about 30 pounds

Today I weighed myself and I weigh 141.5… which is good. The weight is coming off slower that I had wanted it to, but the really weird thing is that I don’t think about losing the weight as much as i used to. I honeslty think that stressing myself out by thinking about losing it made it harder to actually lose it. I’m not trying to be an expert or anything… i’ve only lost 8 pounds, but it’s a good 8 pounds… and it feels great!

So, I weighed myself today. 147.5 so, that’s 2.5 pounds, pretty good. I’m happy with that. My goal is to lose 1.5 pounds a week, which should be very doable… but I have to DO the work. It was really really awesome to get a reminder e-mail from myself yesterday. It was really cool reading my note telling myself that I’m worth it and that I can do it. I think the more I read it and tell myself the more I’ll believe it. But I must confess… I went to McDonald’s tonight… errr. But now I’ve had my fix for a while, and I can keep chuggin along from here. more next week…!

So, I’m pretty sure I’ve attemped to achieve this goal a bunch of times. I just found this website today. I think it’s really awesome to see what other people want to do with their lives. There’s such a variety of things and I’m motivated by other people meeting their own goals. So… I guess I’ll be bold and say I’m 150 pounds. I’m a short female, so trust me; I really do need to lose the 30. I’m a great person, but I want to FEEL great. I’m sure you know how it is. More to come next week.
