Wow, a little housework and boom...bust through the mini plateau...

Morning Update:

Although I didn't sleep last night, I feel good because I am 98% finished with my project report. I anticipate putting the beast to rest today. Its probably going to amount to 24-25 pages and its fully cited. Just a crazy undertaking but its done. So tonight I will lay down for a long sleep..a well deserved stress-less sleep.

As for right now, I am celebrating my new low (weight wise) with a Hershey's candy bar. What can I say? I love chocolate.

A few thoughts:

1) Weight loss in one place? - Ok, so I can definitely tell my waist is where I am losing the weight..that and my face/neck area. My chest and other areas remain the same, sort of. I am thinking I probably need to target those areas to burn fat with some sort of aerobic exercise routine. I will probably start that when I go under 220...before when I did the aerobics, I built muscle which stunted my weight loss even worse than plateaus and while I KNEW that the weight gain was muscle it still bothered me, so I will probably concentrate on straight weight loss until I am significantly under 220.

2) Who is that in the mirror? About two and a half years ago, I came back from an all inclusive cruise. I looked at the mirror and asked myself "Who is that staring back at me?" I had hit rock bottom, I was at 267 lbs and in danger of breaking the 270 level. I knew that it was either make a change or probably start feeling the ill effects of all that weight. I started a diet and in 6 months I went from 267 to 212lbs. I was so giddy, however I lost sight of the ultimate goal of 180. Gradually the weight came back and then at my mother's passing on July 14, I was back around 256. Her passing lit a fire in me...I needed to get back to my goal. I looked at that mirror and made that commitment. This morning,I looked in the mirror and I started recognizing that guy, the guy who was confident and feeling good back in October of 2010. The ONLY difference between he and I is that I will continue till I hit my ultimate goal of 180, no matter how long it takes. Right now I am about 13 lbs away from the lowest weight I achieved previously, 212. This time, I will push past that limit and keep going to levels not seen since college and then high school. I am committed and this site will help me see the progress, however slight, in my pursuit of that goal. Thank you FS.

3) Happy - Don't let anyone or anything bring you down. When you are happy it makes everything a bit less caustic. So remember, count your blessings and if you can, help someone smile today!

Song for today - Don't Worry Be Happy by Bobby McFerrin.

Have a great day everyone, ..its Sunny in NYC!

Got to love that house work. I've got my new to do list and hoping that will help me lose another 10 pounds.

Yeah, its just a matter of staying active. As long as you are moving doing most any activity, you will cause a caloric deficit...if you are on your diet. I am just grateful that I busted through the mini plateau because plateauing wears on you.
