Only 14 weeks!!!!

Yes, it’s me blogging again.  I just realized something… my goal was to lose 100 lbs in a year… and I’ve only got 14 weeks (including this week, which is almost gone) left to go!!!!   I’ve got 38 lbs to lose!!!  I’d have to lose roughly 2.7 lbs per week to make my goal, and lately my body has not been cooperating at all!!!

It isn’t the end of the world if I don’t make my goal, especially since I was out with a hurt back for a while, but I sure would like to.  So right now, I’m trying to formulate a plan to kick it up a notch.  I’ve only been losing about 2 lbs a week on average, if I exclude the time I was out with my back and didn’t make progress.  So what can I do to burn an extra lb per week without significantly increasing the time invested?  I’m already at the gym 5+ nights per week.  

I think I really need to find a new class or something to mix it up.  My body responds well to changing my routine - now I’ve just got to figure out what I can find to do.

    so what if you lose only 90 lbs by the end of the year………you dont win any prizex for getting there faster……..the longer it takes to come off the longer it stays off………..you are my hero……..

    It took me a little over a year to lose 100 pounds and I can tell you that if you put a bunch of pressure on yourself its going to be harder to get the weight off.
    Trust me I learned this from experience.

    You are doing an amazing job and so what if it takes a little bit longer.
    Slow and steady wins the race and you are doing it the right way to keep it off.

    I am so proud of you

    Keep up the great work you’ll be celebrating 100 pounds before you know it.
