week 13

I'm being lazy today so I'm going by my weight yesterday. I'm suppose to be watching my brother's baby today. He was suppose to come over at 8:30 am and it's now 9:10 and he's still not here. So, I could've gone jogging and brought my weight down for this week's weigh in. Oh well.
last week: 187.8
this week: 188.3
I'm wanting to get a workout in later today. we'll see.
The weight loss challenge I'm doing end in 2 weeks and my goal for finishing it off is to have lost 10 lbs. I started it at 195.5, so I need to get down to 185.5. Today I have 2.8 pounds to go, totally doable. It was a 12 week challenge and I remember at the beginning thinking, "if I lose 2 pound a week I would weigh 171.5!". But looking back, had I worked hard enough to be losing 2 pounds a week, I would've gotten burned out. It would have required me to be counting calories or points and in the past I"ve figured out that using methods like that for weight loss don't work for me. I have to be able to feel like I'm just living but making healthy eating decisions and exercising because I love to. And that is why I will have lost 10 pounds instead of 24. But hey, you won't see me complaining! And hopefully I'll make some cash by at least getting 3rd :)
This week I am making a goal to eat 5 servings of fruits and veggies again. Mostly veggies. I've been slacking on that the last couple of weeks and need to add them back into my diet.
Thanks for all your support, it really is helpful to know your checking the blog so I know that someone is keeping track of me.
