Progress!

So I FINALLY broke that little plateau I have been riding for the last couple of months or so. At the end of December I will post my end of month weight and I should be a little more than half way to my goal since I started posting my progress on here, so I will also post my midway stats! Exciting, right? I know, not really, but I have to do this because I find that it really does help me to stay on track. Thank you for bearing with me while I get back into fighting shape. :) Love always! MEL

Oct. and Nov.

Hey all, if you're following my progress on here I just wanted to let you know that I've hit a plateau for these last couple of months, probably because I STILL haven't changed my diet and I also have sort of been slacking on workouts, but here's the deal, today is Thanksgiving, so after I have my delicious meal and some pumpkin pie I am re-dedicating myself to my goals. So, stay tuned and have a very Happy Thanksgiving, or as some New Yorkers say, "Have a blessed day." :)

For August

July

Here is my end of July weigh in. I made my goal! woohoo! Let's go for 145 by the end of August.

June

Here's my last weigh in for the month of June. Sorry it took me so long to get it posted, I was in Chicago. Woohoo! This next month might be a bit slow as far as weight loss goes, because of vacations, but it will pick back up again for the month of August. I didn't quite make my goal for this month. :( BUT, I did lose another four pounds. :) Let's be conservative and say I could lose another couple of pounds by the end of July putting me at 151 lbs. and see how that goes. Wish me luck!

Update

Hey, Melissa here, just thought I'd post a mid month update for you all.

I've lost 6 pounds since I started recording my weight on here and 20 since I've been home from my mission. I'm halfway there guys! Woohoo! I tell you what, it's a slow process, but it's SO worth it in the end. Keep up the good work at home! :) Love, MEL

End of Month

So I've been a slacker about posting my weights and stuff, but I figure once every couple of weeks or so is fine. I have been tons better at working out, this last couple of weeks running 6 miles a day with a friend of mine, but my diet is still lacking and therefore I did not reach my goal for the month of may, but I did lose 4 pounds! I'm happy with the small gains, because they add up to big gains! Or should I say, losses? By small and simple things... Here are my stats for this last month:

37-291/2-41

So my goal for this next month is healthier eating, more sleep and dare I venture a goal weight? Yes. I will lose 8 pounds this next month which will put me at 148. I'll give an update in a couple of weeks, until then, wish me luck! P.S. I taught the young women today. The lesson was on missionary work, go figure. Went great! :) Glad it's over.
