I discovered this weight loss competition at Giving up on Perfect (via it’s come 2 this) and I thought that this might be a good thing to help me stay accountable through the week (and it looks like fun, too!). I am already on a weight loss journey to get back to my Weight Watchers Lifetime Member goal weight after having Mollie. After gaining exactly 50 lbs (did I just admit that to the blogosphere?) with Mollie, I was 14.6 pounds away from my goal this past Monday.
So I’m going to link up to Losing It and see if I can make it to goal by the end… which would coincide nicely with Mollie’s 1st birthday. And along the way I hope to share some of my 9 year journey with weight loss and some things that I have learned from the experience.
My goals for this upcoming week:
- Track I am going to try to track my points (write down everything I eat & drink and how many weight watchers points each item is).
- Run I’m training to run some more 5k races starting in May so I need to be more intentional about running. I am going to try to run 2 miles at least once this week.
- Drink I am going to try to drink at least 60oz of water each day. WW recommends 48oz but I have found that I have more success if I increase my water intake.
So, stop by Losing It (and not just our sanity) and link up!
YAY! I’m glad you linked up:) It’s fun to have some extra motivation for a goal you were already working on! (And *shhh* I gained 50lbs with my 1st too!!!)
Thanks for joining us! I need to TRACK my points, too – it’s pretty much impossible for me to lose weight without it! (And of course I have NOT been doing it.)
I know! I have had a renewed focus since the holidays but it is still hard to remember to write everything down!
Glad I’m not the only one with a few pounds of baby weight to go! Sounds like we have some of the same goals so this is going to be fun! We can cheer each other on!
yes! this is going to be fun! i actually got outside and ran yesterday – yay!
I gained 33 with my baby and nearly 16 months later I’m still 9 lbs away from my pre-pregnancy weight (which is in no way at all thin). Let’s hear it for those baby pounds rolling away!
