Last Official Hoop of the Year!

My new years resolution is almost complete! Woohoo! 20 minutes/day in 2011. I. Did. It! I took some days off, but always made it up and ended the year averaging 20 minutes per day! I am proud of this accomplishment:)

I've had some pretty hefty resolutions in the past like the year I finally quit smoking and the year I quick drinking. Those resolutions are pretty darn important to me too:)

I'm not sure what 2012 holds for me yet, but I have some ideas I've been toying with:). Two more days to commit!

Too Many Sweets

I can eat anything I want on Weight Watchers...that means in portion controls! LOL. I feel gross from eating cookies and snacks for the past four days. Seriously, what was I thinking? I don't even feel good when I do this...yuck!

So tomorrow I detox both the house and my body. The treats are heading to Logan's work and I have my day planned out points wise:). I know what to do and I plan on ending 2011 feeling awesome!

It's time to plan out 2012 and make some serious goals. I'm not sure what the goals will be yet, but getting to Lifetime and staying there will be part of them:)!

Time for Some Full Disclosure....Yikes!

Here goes nothing! At my weigh in at the end of September I weighed....drumroll please...a whopping 209! Just kidding about the drumroll. And it isn't a "whopping" in everyones eyes, but it is for me personally. I was slowly slipping back to my 250 highest weight and definitely feeling really uncomfortable in my skin:(.

This morning I weighed in at 194 pounds. While this isn't anywhere near my goal, I feel a million times better! I am well on my way to my goal of 170 pounds:). In Weight Watchers world that's called "Lifetime" and lifetime can be 2 pounds above or below that weight. So I really just need to lose 22 pounds to get back to Lifetime. WW has added a new benefit to Lifetime and that's free online Etools! I cannot wait!

My next goal is 15 pounds and after that my 10% which is 187 pounds. By WW standards I am down 14 pounds because my start over weight was 208 and I actually gained a pound before going down. I need to lose one pound this week! I can do it with careful planning and staying clear of some of the sugary treats that are sure to be hanging out on the break table at work! I can eat them, but I choose not to because when I eat them I don't like how I feel and the decisions afterwards usually go South!

Looking forward to a great weigh in next week! Merry Christmas!

Digging Semi Deep

I need to get with the program. I have been tracking, but like I said in my last post, not like I should. At least I have se great new habits that keep the weight off even when I am not super strict with myself:). I am ready to get motivated for December and knock off about 10 pounds before 2012 makes it's entrance:)

This week I commit to four elliptical workouts (my knee likes me better when I don't run!), two bodypump workouts and my hooping 20 minutes/day:)! I will be planning out my workouts and plan my meals today.

I cannot wait to go to Weight Watchers this week. I've heard they have tweaked the program a bit. From what I've heard, the changes make sense and will motivate me:). Bring. It. On:)!
