thanks to my friends, one in particular. My dear Stacey Lou Freebush helped my progress a lot this last week. She helped me make healhier choices when we ate out. We went to the gym together. She encouraged me to work out at home when I didn't want to go to the gym. She rocks! It was also helpful that Kate's wedding was this weekend. I wanted to make sure I looked a little more trimmed in the dress I bought for her wedding, so that helped a lot too. Thanks for getting married Kate and Alex. It was a beautiful wedding.
So here's this weeks results:
Weight loss = 6 pounds
Total Weight Loss = 32 pounds
Total % Weight Loss = 11.43%
So through this whole competition, our overall goal is to go to Italy once we get to our final goal weight. While this is great to think about, it's so far away. In fact, it's 73 pounds away. In the past, I've used some good short term goals to help motivate and push me along. But right now I am kind of out of ideas. So that's where you all come in! What are some short term goals that I could work on and reward with? Here's a list of what has been used in the past to give you some ideas to work with:
- Once all three of us got to 15 pounds weight loss we went and saw Iron Man 2 (we all really wanted to
see it).
- Once Angie and I got to 20 pounds weight loss we went and got our hair cut.
- I wanted to take new pictures at 30 pounds weight loss.
Some things I have been thinking about:
- I love the store Anthropology. I've always wanted to buy clothes there but it's a little bit expensive and I know the clothes would look better if I lost more weight. So I've been thinking that I could buy a cute outfit there when I've lost another 20 pounds.
- I could find a concert that is coming to SLC that I really want to go to, buy tickets, and then go if I lose to a certain amount of weight. If I don't get to the weight goal, then I have to give the tickets to someone else.
- My friends and I want to go to Disneyland in February over President's day weekend. So I could set a goal to be down 20 pounds or else I don't get to go. This may help my friends push me a little bit more too.
What do you think? Any other ideas?!? I appreciate your ideas and things that have worked for you in the past.

Where can I get me a Stacey Lou Freebush! So I had 4 mess up days instead of 3 and lost my bet with my friends. So I owed them a dinner at the roof. Well I am a little broke right now so I said I would double or nothing. So I cannot go over my kcals even one day, and I have to loose 12 lbs by Jan 27th. If I loose that means that I owe them two expensive dinners! That is some good motivation because I do not have any money now. Over Christmas and New years! I must be crazy!
ReplyDeleteDisneyland! Save the outfit for a forty pound weight loss.
