Honing in on the big 1-0-0

After last weeks depressing weigh in (I gained .6oz), I had a mini freak out. All I could think about was becoming that girl again...irrational, I know. But during my 10 month journey, I have had no gains, and only remained the same maybe 2 or 3 times.


Gaining is new territory for me, and I don't like it.


My consultant, Michelle, told me to snap out of it and to calm down, because I was still down 90+ pounds and this wasn't a big deal. The rational 'me' would have calmed down, and taken it for what it was and planned my week accordingly from there.


But that 'me' was not available. All I had was a psycho obsessive 'me' that couldn't let go of the fact that I had gained.


It may be a little gain now, but more little gains would equal a BIG gain, and then you'll become THAT GIRL again!

The Future?

I couldn't stop thinking about it. It wasn't until I looked in my progress photos a few hours later where I got my rationality and determination back. And after that, I planned my week like I always do.


I resisted temptation all week.
I stuck to my calorie goals.
I drank my water.
I went to the gym twice.


And when weigh in time came, I let out a scream!

-5.8 lbs

I had lost 5.8 pounds. I FLIPPED OUT! I could NOT believe it, and even now, 24 hours later, it's STILL sinking in. I hadn't had a drop like that since the first few months of my diet.   and that means that i'm officially at 

97 pounds lost!

I'm closing in on 100 pounds down, and I can't wait until I kick the door down on that number!

Now I know that a big drop was expected with the calorie change and gym activity that a drop would happen, but I still had my doubts. Hell, the week of the dreaded gain I did the same stuff, and look what happened. But lo and behold, I have officially entered the 180's. I'm waving 190's goodbye, never to be seen again!

In honor of saying goodbye, here's a song from Madonna!
