End of Week 12

Well, if you look at the tracker on the top right you will notice that I have reached the middle.  I have lost 39 lbs and have 39lbs to go.  Lost 1 pound this week.  It has been a bit tough yesterday and today getting myself back on track with Ideal Protein.  I didn't feel hungry while I was following the program without cheating.  Having a weekend of eating "normal" foods and having a couple desserts was okay but it has meant that while trying to get back on track I have been feeling hungry.  And truthfully, some of my motivation is fading.  One wedding is down.   41/2 wks till the next one.  I do need to hit the 50lb loss by Sept 10 though.  I want to fit my outfit comfortably.  I may re assess my weight goal at that point however.   Anyway, this is rambling.    Keeping on the path to better health.

End of week 11

38 lbs down.

I had hoped to hit the 43 lb mark by the time of Daniel's wedding on Saturday.  I can't see losing 5 lbs before Saturday.  Now while I would dearly have loved to have reached that goal I have to be happy with what I have done so far. 
I wonder if I can lose 50lbs by the time of David's wedding on Sept 10.

Anyway, I am going to try really hard to not obsess over my weight and enjoy this weekend celebrating the wedding of Daniel and Tara.  I plan to eat healthy and try to not gain this week.  Then I have 5 weeks to try to lose 12 lbs.

One more step on the path to healthiness.
