I am finding my self going closer and closer to vegetarian again . That makes me happy ( for many reasons) I am not saying I will not eat meat again, If I want meat with a meal I will have it . But more and more I find my self wanting/ eating meat less and less.
11/8/12 179.4    I have maintained pretty well for the past month. Hoping to start to lose again soon. I would like to lose another 20 to 25 pounds ,, but something tells me this last 20-25 pounds is going to be very very slow to go .

UPDATE ON FEBRUARY 25th,,
Todays weight is ;
170.4 - 9 pounds in the past 3 months
I had to really look for pictures of me

I am about 230 in this one

My (dream ) goal weight is 149
but I will be SUPER DUPER happy with 159





This picture is of me and some of my brothers and sisters taken  about  10 years ago.

I am on the far right .I am about 165 in this picture .

Sunday catch up

Time to catch up ,

This past week has been better than the week before but still kinda hit and miss.
Good news is I am back to working out 5 days a week.
Not so good new, my diet has not been as good as it should be.

I feel that I am getting closer to being able to make that commitment to the next 25 pounds. It feels different this time. As if I am more  aware of the process of making the commitment needed to do this.  Feels right :)

Accountability

Accountability

One week off turned into 2 weeks off.  Mentally and emotionally I am having a very difficult time getting back to it.
No weight gain though that is good.
I still have 45 pounds to lose and I need to get my head back in the game .
