I was in D.C. last week so I didn't have a chance to write my blog for week 7. Last week I was still at 178 so I was ok with that. This week I actually gained a pound and I'm back at 179. These past 2 weeks have been rough since I've been traveling and working so much. Hopefully I'll get to move the scale down a few pounds next week. I'm really goinng to try hard to get back on track. Bess has school tonight so I'll have to make myself work out by myself or I can go pick up my other sister and take her to the gym with me. Hopefully Bess and I can go tomorrow and over the weekend. Let's hope for sunny weather so we can walk outside.

I lost one pound this week! I weigh 216, I'm so glad to have finally lost again! I have the flu so as soon as I'm better I can get in a few miles this week of walking.

I gained 1 pound this week. I have to be honest, I'm having a hard time sticking with healthy foods. I need to back in touch with my commitment to eat and live healthier now. We're putting in new flooring this weekend so that will help me burn some calories. Most importantly, I'm not giving up!! And I definately have it in me to lose the weight. It's not about will power it's about LIFESTYLE!!! Ok sorry for the cheesiness...

I weigh 178 today! I've never been so excited to lose 1 pound. I thought I would probably gain a few pounds since I was out of town so much last week with work. I didn't really have a choice of what to eat at some of the meals since they were catered for the meetings. I still haven't been out on my bike yet, hopefully I'll be able top this weekend. Hopefully I'm back on track.

I weigh 179 again. Man, this is crazy. I bought a bike this weekend so maybe by adding some variety to my workout this week I can make a change. Feb is a short month so I have to step it up to lose 8 pounds. I can do this.

Well I weigh the same today as last week, 217. I'm really glad I didn't gain, I had some tests in school and just a ton of things going on at once, so I didn't go walking much. I had some pizza Sunday during the Superbowl, but I didn't engorge like I used to. I expected to gain so I'm very happy with this weeks results. I'm getting things back in working order because I'm determined to lose this week!! I'm going to try to walk at least five miles this week. So pray that I make it!! :)
