Weigh In Wednesday #2

In an effort to lose 40 lbs over the course of the next year (by July 28, 2015) I have decided to have a weekly accountability forum here on my blog. Every Wednesday I will be posting a "Weigh In Wednesday" post where I will post my weight taken that morning and things that I did good on the previous week, and things (goals) to work on for the next week. I think that by doing this, I can break it down into smaller goals and hopefully make myself more accountable!

First let's recap my official starting weight was:::  235.6 lbs.
My weight last week was::: 235.6lbs
My weight this week is::: 235.8lbs....meaning I GAINED 0.2lbs. :(

I did bad on my goals last week which is why I gained.

My food goal for last week::: Only drink 1 diet pop a day, the rest of the time choose water. Well I started out really well....then slipped off the wagon. The weekend was especially hard, as we were out of the house all day Sunday and I had Dr. Pepper at Burger King with lunch, then shared Sierra Mist with my hubby at the zoo, then had 2 diet cokes at Roosters for dinner. Monday, I had 2 pops, and on Tuesday I had a caffeine free coke as well. Need to really work on this. 
My fitness goal for last week::: Do a Wii Fit activity for 20 minutes at least 4 days. This was a fail. I didn't do any Wii workouts. In fact other than housework and walking over 2 miles at the zoo on Sunday this is a complete fail.  

Last week was not a good week. I was in a depressed mood a lot of the week and really didn't eat very well over the weekend. It wasn't that I was snacking a lot, it was that I ate out too many times and made bad choices when we did eat out. I know that. And if I want to make these changes, I HAVE TO STEP IT UP! 

So I really need to step it up. I need to do this so that I can hit my goals. Once again I will focus on drinking less pop, making better food choices and moving more. We shall see how it goes. 

So, my food goal for this week is::: Only drink 1 pop a day, the rest of the time choose water. 
And my fitness goal for this week is::: Do an exercise activity at least 20 minutes at least 4 days this week. 

So there you have it. I had a bad week. This week will be better.

Any words of wisdom? Thoughts? Advice? 

I would love to have all the support I can get!!
