Thinking about new goals

I started this blog with the idea of keeping an on-line journal on my journey to a healthy lifestyle. It helped me to make goals here because I could go back and check in on myself.

I have been thinking about my future goals now that the baby is here. I am nursing so full blown weight managment if coming into the picture, but I am still just a week and a half post delivery. I'm still moving slowly and haven't been released by the doctor.

My plan is to join weight watchers (either on line or at a meeting) and to start walking again once I am released to exercise by my doctor.

I have been hopping on the scale to see how the weight is coming off (faster or slower than last time). It seems to be coming off a little faster this time.

I am 10 days past delivery and I weighed in at 197 this morning. My high was 216 so that is a 19 lbs loss so far. Not too bad really. I know it will slow down soon and Iwill really have to work to get the rest of the weight off, but I am liking the way is it coming off so far.

I hope to be back at least in the 170's by December. That is my new goal. Hopefully I will be even less than that, but that is my goal for now.

Biggest Loser and Goals

First to my goals from last week.
1) To not drink any more diet sodas (or sodas of any kind). I have done well at this one. Actually better than I thought I would do.

2) To try and drink decaf. whenever possible. This one not as much as the other, but I am drinking lots more water and come coffee in the mornings. By just eliminating the soft drinks I cut this down a great deal.

3) Get in 3 days of exercise between now and Wednesday (hopefully this will include the season 1 BL DVD). I didn't get 3 days of exercise in, but I did get 2 days in. I also jogged some on those 2 days, so I'm giving my less lots of credit for this one.

Now to Biggest Loser. I just loved it. I kept waiting for the black team to join the other teams, but I guess that will have to wait another week. Even though she was booted off this week, I was impressed that she had lost 60lbs. That is great.

I just couldn't believe how sad it was when those 6 people didn't get picked. I was almost in tears. But all is well, they have Jillian and she will get them into awesome shape. I am so excited that the season has finally started.

I still haven't giving up on my quest to get the Biggest Loser workout DVD. I checked overstock.com today and they have it, but it will take a while to get here to me.

New goals

Okay I think I have come to a decision about the diet sodas (and thanks to my blog buddies for their helpful comments). I think those are out for now. I have done it before and I can do it again.

The goals for this weekend and until my next Wednesday weigh in are:
1) To not drink any more diet sodas (or sodas of any kind).
2) To try and drink decaf. whenever possible.
3) Get in 3 days of exercise between now and Wednesday (hopefully this will include the season 1 BL DVD).
