Really Bad Blogger

I know I'm a really bad blogger (and maybe a bit embarrassed that I may have fallen off the wagon).

I wasn't watching what I was eating and not drinking my water and put on a couple of the pounds I lost, so I'm at 240 again :( Overall, I'm still at a 15lb loss and I can feel it in my clothes. For my birthday, I got a Wii and a Wii Fit. I'm doing the Fit 30 day challenge and after having a hard time walking after the first couple of workouts, I'm doing much better and really enjoying it! I'm pretty sure the weight loss is starting to do something to my hormones. From all I know of PCOS, just a 10% weight loss can change things dramatically. While I'm glad my hormones are doing the things they are suppose to, hormones have a tendency to turn me into a crazy, raging B*&%@.

Patrick is still doing really well (of course - I hate dieting with a man) and is down to 225 for a total of 23 lbs lost. He's down a few sizes and is going to need a new belt very soon.

I'll be better at keeping up at this (or at least that's what I keep telling myself).

Quick Update

Quick update on our weights:

Alison 238.5 loss of 16.9 lbs.

Patrick 230 loss of 18 lbs.

Bad Blogger

Yes, I know I'm a terrible blogger, but I'm a busy kid or absent minded and I forget to do things.

Here's a quick update. Patrick is down 17 lbs now and is shortly going to break into the 220s. Yeah Patrick!! We are going to either have to start making new notches in his belt or break down and get him a new one or he's going to look like on of those gangsters with his saggy pants. Ewww. I can't have my husband looking like that!

I am down about 9 lbs and have lost more weight this month than any other month in my whole life. I've discovered some clothes in my closet I had been holding onto that fit again. Yippee!

Tonight, we are going to spluge on a bit of dinner. My best friend growing up parents are in town and we are going out to dinner. Chili's has 2 for $20 - how can we pass that up, the brownie, ice cream, and chocolate syrup dessert that is...

Confirmation

We got the good scale brought in last night and this morning I got confirmation that yes, I am under 250 lbs - 247.5 to be exact!

Patrick is down 14 lbs total and dropping.

Scale Issues

Our scale gives you a different weight every time you stand on it. I guess we are going to work on averages for a while. Patrick takes whatever it gives him the first time and it is usually the lowest number.

So, using Patrick's rule, as of this morning I'm under 250 lbs for the first time in years!!

WOO HOO!!

Update

Okay Mom, here's your update.

As of this morning Patrick is 237 down 11 pounds. I'm at 251 down almost 5.

I was happy I lost today even though we had a little splurge last night. (warm chocolate chip cookie with vanilla ice cream)
