Shapeup Journey: Small milestone...

Small milestone...

I want to share some exciting news: as of today I have hit my -70 pound weight loss goal, yay! It is at this point "unofficial" because I don't go to my doctors until next Thursday, but I can't even begin to describe how happy I was this morning and all day for that matter.

Tomorrow (09/11) will mark exactly 7 months since I weighed in the first time on my doctors scale so here are my calculations:

02/11/09 to 09/11/09 = 7 months
Lost 70 pounds in 7 months
70/10 = 10 pounds lost per month on average
10/4 = 2.5 pounds lost per week on average

I've been going to the gym every single day and I started playing softball in a Co-Ed league every Wednesday night. I am still eating good, especially now that I am having gallstone issues.

Short post I know, but OH HAPPY DAY!

If you are reading this, then you have probably decided to follow me on my ShapeUp Journey. It is sure to be a bumpy walk, but it will be worth it in the end. I plan to post my weight loss updates, but figure that those will get pretty boring. So, I also plan to try and enrich your lives with tips and tricks that are helping me along the way, as well as any random thoughts I have pertaining to fitness and weight loss.

**UPDATE** I started losing weight in February 2009. I lost 80 pounds by the end of the year with diet, exercise, and checking in with a nutritionist once a month . Then, I got pregnant and gained some back. I had a baby in May 2010 and lost all my baby weight by December 2010. I started using Weight Watchers with their extra points for breastfeeding in Sept 2010 and plan to use WW until I reach my goal, which by the way... I'm in the home stretch of my goal weight of losing 126 total!

**UPDATE****UPDATE** I had ANOTHER baby! I am still using my heaviest weight ever as a starting point and while I am not back to square one I have a long way to go again. I got down to 162 during my half marathon training and weight watcher-ing in 2011. I am back on WW and using their extra breastfeeding points again as of 5/31/13. I am hoping to get back to 162 and maybe even lower by my sons 1st birthday. Wish me luck!
