Weight Loss

Had my mom take a picture of me today because I lost 6 lbs. Yay.  I’m proud of the weight loss because I’ve been working hard at it. I started a weight loss challenge recently and knowing that it’s actually paying off makes the hard work all worth it.


I wasn’t serious about it until 2 weeks ago when the hubs and I joined a 3.5 mile walk / run in Jones Beach.  I knew that after the race, I would get motivated to lose weight.  And I was right.  I’ve been pushing myself to get on the threadmill since then, even when I don’t feel like it.

It’s only been a month since I started eating lightly.  I don’t go crazy with dieting.  I believe in making a lifestyle change and not on crash dieting.  I don’t count calories because I’m too lazy for that. It’s too much hassle, too much work, too much effort.  I just don’t have the time nor patience.  I do portion control.  I take the smallest bowl we have in the house and use it as my measuring instrument.  I put whatever food I can into it, finish it, and never go for a second round.  I eat again when I feel hungry an hour or two later. Repeat.

I started working out two weeks ago and have been committed to it.  I get on the threadmill and jog 1.5 miles a day.


It’s a total of 6 lbs lost and you can already see the difference between the before and after.  I’m so happy and so proud of myself.

  1. Your weight loss post is inspiring me to go on one too. I've lost the weight before, but with the stress of the past few months, I've been slowly gaining it back. Eek. :P

    Both your pics look great, actually. Even in the before picture, you were blooming and gorgeous. Same thing in the after, but I am going to add FANTASTIC too in the after pic. :D You've lost the weight, but I like how you look healthy and radiant. :) I'm happy you are losing weight the healthy way and not falling for the crash diet. It's scary when people do that.

    Haha... Yup, I love how my carts have wheels too. Just in case I ever decide to reorganize my room (if I'm not lazy, that is), those wheels will be a big help to me. :D

    Keep up the great work with your weight loss journey. :)
