I started this blog 5 weeks ago, and of course started off with a post on why I want to lose weight.
As you know: I lost a lot of weight in one year, reaching Stage 3 on the way of my not-yet-decided goal. Then my weight stayed the same for a couple of months before spiraling up again at the end of last year. This is when I started this blog. So, to start my monthly posts about my weight loss progress I present you now: My weight loss journey in numbers:
Started // July 2012: 238.8 lbs
Reached Stage 1 // November 2012: 218.4 lbs (- 20.4 lbs)
Reached Stage 2 // April 2013: 210.2 lbs (-28.6 lbs)
Reached Stage 3 // July 2013: 198.2 lbs (- 40.6 lbs)
Lowest weight // October 2013: 195.2 lbs (- 43,6 lbs)
October 2013. This was a good time for me. But things quickly spiraled out of control from there. I had personal problems and turned to food for comfort as I've always done. Then came Christmas Time and tons of food. And then came January, showing me the results. Oh boy.
Re-Start // January 2014: 208.2 lbs (+ 13 lbs from lowest weight)
It was not really a shock when I saw those numbers on the scale. I expected it. I noticed the fat around my chin and hips returning. It was painful to drop behind Stage 3. But after getting way too close to Stage 2 I had to put a halt to this. And even though my weight has been going up and down like a buoy in the past weeks I'm happy to announce that the weight loss, over all, has started going again! Yeah!!
Going down // February 2014: 205 lbs (- 3.2 lbs since restart // -33.8 lbs in total // -5.1 lbs to go back to Stage 3)
Wohoo! Go me! My goal for now is to reach Stage 3 again. I'll worry about Stage 4 once I got there ;)
So, wish me luck!
Question of the day: How do you lose weight? Do you have one big goal? Do you have stages like me? Or do you just go on losing weight without worrying about a goal or stages?
Take care and be sexy,
Anna
Hi Anna,
ReplyDeleteich habe vor 6 Jahren mit WW abgenommen, 16kg... und die in 5 Jahren langsam wieder zugelegt. Aber jetzt sollen wenigstens 12 davon wieder runter. Da ich für WW aber kein Geld ausgeben möchte, versuche ich es mit grobem Kalorienzählen und Sport. Das hat letztes Jahr auch gut geklappt, bis mir Medikamente einen Strich durch die Rechnung gemacht haben, ich zugenommen habe und dann (so wie du zwischendurch auch) gedacht habe "Was solls" und viel zu viel gegessen habe *seufz* Aber das soll nun alles wieder in geregelten Bahnen laufen.
Ich habe %-Stufen... ich möchte bis Juli -5% schaffen, dann 10%, dann 15% ... Hoffe das klappt!
Liebste Grüße,
Chaoselfe
Bei mir gehts im Moment nur Berg auf. Das ist frustrierend. Grobes Kalorienzählen ist ja fast wie WW - das gute daran ist auf jeden Fall, dass man den Überblick nicht verliert. Man muss das Pendel einfach immer ins Gleichgewicht bringen. Ich drücke dir auf jeden Fall die Daumen!
