It's been about a month and I am down about eight pounds. For three mornings in a row, I've weighed in at 193. I feel like I have to do it a few times for it to be real, not just a skinny fluke it something. Three years ago, I went to the doctor for my 12 week pregnancy appointment and I weighed 183 (if I remember right). Hopefully I'll be seeing that number again in 4-6 weeks. That's my next goal weight. I considered setting some sort of tangible reward for myself but I have a few pair if jeans from a few years ago that I would love to be able to wear again. That is probably reward enough.
I went to Zumba this morning and felt kind of sick and light headed early on. I powered through bug it wasn't as good a workout as I would have liked. I need to drink more water. I'm sure of that. I got really dehydrated a week or so ago and ended up pretty sick for a couple days. I'm awful at drinking water but I am setting a goal to drink at least 64 ounces a day. That still is less than I ought to be drinking but it's a whole lot more than I am drinking now.
If I can really lose eight pounds a month for the entire competition I will end up at 154. I know that is extremely unlikely but I would really love to weight that again. I would also love to have energy and a flat stomach! Someday. I just need to keep working!
