May 2012 Challenge

[Grace]

Since I didn't lose a lb last month and seem to be at a plateau because I can't get to the pool anymore I'll go a bit humble on my goals this month.
1. Lose 5 lbs.
2. Learn to use the new rebounder I have set up just today and then use it at least 3 days a week while waiting for June and time to set up our pool in the yard.
3. Don't worry, be happy.

I hope to lose 10 lbs this month and drop 1 size.
I'm doing good with calories, water and protein, so I'll focus on exercising at least 5 times a week.

May 29 is my surgery, I have three trips planned, two fr work (leaving tomorrow) and one in Italy for a wedding (my home town). I will start my pre-op diet in Italy the day after the wedding. I am seeing all of this a big challenge in terms of weight loss. However I wish I can manage to loose some
here the goals:

1) 6 pounds loss (day of surgery 265-264)
2) manage to exercise at least 3 times per week
3) eat slower every freaking meal
4) keep my protein at 90-100g per day
5) Hold it together (work is super crazy, family is crazier!)

I fell off the exercise wagon last month. Ugh. Need to get back on it!
Starting weight 253

I want to lose 10 pounds
Get back into exercising (swimming at least twice a week and biking at least twice a week)
Get back into weighing/measuring my food

I've gotten away from weighing and measuring everything. I don't know how much it's affected me, but I want to start it up again.

ok here goes.
Today May 2nd weight is 217lbs
Id like to lose 10lbs this month and get to 207lbs.
Goal to drink more water and get more protein. I will be starting new job so exercise is probably not gonna happen too much except for walking at new job.
Good luck everyone...

205! Watch it go to 207 tomorrow, grrr. But, for now, 205 is psycologically satisfying AND it just so means I have lost exactly 50 lbs.! Hope the next 50 comes off faster...
