Back on track

As you can see on the blog I lost five days from my challenge. I did work out at least one of those days. I have been eating well.

Not going to lie. I binged last night. I ate one and a half peanut butter sandwiches. After a healthy dinner. I don't know why I did it. I do know that when I lose focus, I compound it. I say, "well today was bad anyways, I might as well eat whatever I want." So knowing this, I need to find a solution. There are going to be some off track days. With the holidays coming up this might even happen more often. So I need some concrete solutions to avoid compounding one mistake on top of another.

Rhea has lost over 40 pounds now.

I am weighing in every monday morning now that we have a schedule. Today 226.

I want to weigh 145, which is what I weighed in high school. Perhaps more, if it means I have more muscle. So that means I have 81 pounds to lose. That seems like a lot right now. I would love to lose 15 - 20 pounds before Tanner gets home. I have a little over 8 weeks. That means I need to lose 2.5 pounds a week until he gets back. Rhea lost more then that the first few weeks, so I know it is possible. My long term goal is to lose 50 pounds by my birthday. Which is April 7th. Given the number of weeks left, it means I would need to average 2.2 pounds per week until April. Hopefully I can do that. It's not an unrealistic goal.

Yay let's go!
