Title: Janet Update - 6/19/2012
Post by: valhalla on 19-Jun-12, 01:13:48 PM
I have officially reached my 1st goal of 35 pounds lost!  The scale has been bouncing around that number for a few days now and this morning showed the next bounce of 37!  Beat my best time running, too!  4.2 miles in 42 min.  I need to stop that before I hurt myself.  When I reach 40 pounds, I will regroup and analyze the next step, which will probably be the next and final 10 pounds.  Then, all of my brand-new stuff won't fit.  6 garbage bags filled with a lot of new clothes were picked up last week by the Purple Heart.

That is awesome and inspiring!  Congratulations, Janet.  How did you do it?

I began with Weight Watchers Points Plus and got ruthless with fats and carbs.  Big time Portion Control.  Big Time.  Started walking 1.2 miles in Mid-January and I'm now running 4 miles per day.

Keep your food, local, organic, and natural.  No diet soda, no artificial sweetener, no decaf, no lite beer becasue all are made via chemicals.  Use a tiny bit of raw sugar.  Drink local beer - less preservatives.

Congratulations!  That last pound or two before a goal marker is SO difficult! It's easier though in the summer when all the fresh foods come into the farmers market.  I reached 60 pounds two weeks ago, on my one year anniversary weigh-in at Weight Watchers.

Janet...I am still working on losing.  I'll re-evaluate where I am at the end of the summer.  Discovered in this current heat wave that I have nothing really lightweight that fits.  Have had to donate several things that were still too snug at the end of last summer but were now too big.  Not a bad problem to have, certainly, but it can be awkward.
