Perty by Thirty Week 68

Look! I'm back! Two days in a row! It's like a miracle is happening. :)

Quite honestly, I probably would not be back here posting if I didn't have good news, right?

Well, you're right, I do have good news. To the tune of 3 pounds.

This brings my total weight loss back up to 97.6. The math had gotten off somewhere along the way, and was .2lb too high, so it looks like I only lost 2.8, but it's okay. I know in my heart I lost 3 pounds.

Now, I need to be honest for a minute. I was a bit disappointed that I only lost 3 pounds. I know it seems like a dumb thing to say especially since I have been yo yo dieting for the past 3 months, but it's the truth.

See, I did everything right last week. I exercised every day (but one), I ate within my points perfectly. I expected to lose more than 3 pounds. I was hoping for a big 5 pound loss, but that did not happen.

This week I plan to step it up a notch in the exercise department. I need to walk longer and harder and faster. I'm hoping I really can, but the weather is not looking good, so that may not be an option.

I am also going to try to decrease my carbs and sugar a bit. This is going to be the hardest thing for me and it may be a gradual change, but I think it will help.

So that's the plan. Let's hope I stick to it and can come back here next week with something good to report!
