Here it goes
So...Prior to giving birth to my daughter I was a solid 143 lbs. I gained a total of 61lbs during my pregnancy, which for those of you who have never had children is more the twice the recommended weight gain for a single birth. Well I have never lost that weight and it has been plaguing me ever since and my daughter just turned 3. In addition to that, I have been recently diagnosed with Lupus. Lupus causes several conditions one of which is arthritis, which I now have in my knees and elbows. The combination of these two things have made me realize I need to loose some weight. So I'm taking a page from Lex and track my weight loss progress. This is really hard for me to admit so please be kind. Here it goes:
Current weight: 205 lbs
Goal weight: 155lbs
First milestone: to loose 10lbs by February 14th.
2nd milestone: loose 25lbs total by my sister's wedding, April 28th
3rd milestone: loose 40 lbs total by my mom's birthday cruise September 8th
Goal: loose 50 lbs by DP's wedding, October 6th
My biggest hurdle is giving up fried chicken (specifically wings) and Pepsi. Sweet Lord I love my Pepsi. I will be keeping you updated on my progress. If any of you have nutritional food ideas please let me know. If any of you have gone through trying to loose weight, please give me some support/enlightenment.
