So I started a Weight Loss Challenge today. Kind of like a biggest loser contest.  Everyone pay $29 then if you miss weighing in you have to pay $5 and if you gain weight you have to pay $1 per pound. It lasts 12 weeks.  I am hoping I can lose another 20 lbs or more in the next 12 weeks. Two biggest losers split the pot at the end.

12 weeks out and just two more pounds to 60 lbs gone! 

I can hardly believe it. I also just bought some new clothes and I was able to  buy 20s and 22s.  I was wearing 28/30 before surgery.  I am really starting to notice a difference.  I am almost to the point where I know I will start being able to really see a difference.

So by my calculations I have lost 12% in the last 7weeks. So that means I will lose approximately 36 lbs in the next 7 weeks? I think I did that right. 14 weeks will be May 13th. 

That would also mean I would be down to 246 my high school weight!  I will have to keep track and see if it happens.

So I weighed in at the gym this morning and I love Their scale! according to it I lost 16lbs in two days!  I weighed myself sunday morning at home at 288. This morning I weighed in at the gym at 272.  I am thinking their scale is off to my one at home. I will have to calibrate them.  Or stop using a scale at all.  I have been stalled over the last few weeks though. I lost 36 lbs really fast then  nothing for the last 2weeks.  I have been working out though.

Maybe my body finally decided to turn some fat into muscle and lose some fat too!

I had my surgery on February 4th, 2009.  I can't believe its been a  month already.  I am feeling good. I am only hungry at night.  I have really dry skin. I must need to watch my water intake. 

I started back at the gym this week and I feel good about it. I was even thinking of trying the Body for Life routine again.  Workout six days a week?! I probably wouldn't have even thought about it a month ago. But I really want this sleeve to get me to my goal weight.  I do not even remember being under 200 lbs ever, although I am sure I was at some point. Didn't come out weighing 324.

I weighed in this morning and the scale said 290 that means 4 weeks out and I am down 34 lbs. Yeah! I can't wait til I hit 50.

I am getting nervous. I feel like 31 lbs lost in 3 weeks is not good enough. Am I crazy?  I am only able to eat about 1/4 cup of food, but I can say my hunger is gone. I just need to get in more water. I have dry skin like crazy and I had a reaction to the steri strips that is driving me nuts.

I started back to water aerobics today. Only kind of aerobics I like to do. I really need to get to the gym. I am excited to be working out again but I just don't know how to get back into it. I want to be toned when I lose the weight.
