I weighed myself today for the first time in five weeks.
Since I started this 8 weeks ago I'm down a total of just 6 lbs. Better down than up, of course, but I wish it were going down faster!!!
This puts me at a BMI of 23.7.
I'd like to get to a BMI of 21.
20 lbs to go.
It's not easy, but it's definitely possible!
This whole effort started at Christmas, when I realized that I'm fatter than any family members and -- to add insult to injury -- I weighed myself for the first time in a long time and found out my BMI was over 25, making me officially overweight. I was not happy. My first action was to cut sugar and flour out of my diet. (Sugar is evil; that's why I love it so much.) That brought me down about 8 pounds in 14 weeks. I stumbled across Fast-5 and decided to incorporate it in April. Since then, in 8 weeks on both Fast-5 and no sugar/no flour I've lost another 6 lbs.
Total of 14 pounds.

Slow and steady wins the race. Fast weight loss usually just goes back on as fast as it went. Keep it up and the weight will come off and STAY off. THAT is the ultimate goal.
ReplyDeleteToo right, Jenna!! I want the weight to be gone forever. Slow and permanent loss :)
