Weigh In Wednesday #13 of 2017

So one of my 2017 goals is to lose 40 pounds by the end of the year. This is a necessity for me, as in the last few months I have gained 15 pounds. That is not good. I want to be healthier and feel better about myself. 

In order to keep me accountable, I am hoping to come back each Wednesday to share my weigh in and my successes and failures from the previous week. So let's hop to it and see how I did this past week, shall we?

SO HOW DID THIS WEEK GO??? 

My official starting weight (on 1/1/2017) was: 242.0 pounds!

My weight last week was: 235.4 pounds.

My weight this week is: 233.4 pounds. 

So a loss of 2.0 pounds! :-)
Total loss from 1/1/17: 8.6 pounds 

I am down another 2 pounds! Yay! I am just 1.5 pounds from being down the first 10 pounds! This past week, I just tried to control portions and tried to eat clean when I could. That meant adding fruits and veggies to each meal that I ate and trying not to snack as I had been doing. Not having my favorite chocolates in the house has definitely helped. I do keep m&ms here for Bill, but I find after I eat a couple I don't want anymore as they are not my favorite. So it was a good week diet wise. However, I just have lost all mojo for exercising. I really need to get back to it....Maybe this week?

If you are trying to lose weight in 2017, how is your progress going?
