Tip Top Thursday

So, I skipped blogging last week. I don’t have any excuses. I just didn’t do it. Sorry!  And I gained 1 pound. Not a lot, so whatever.

Well, I made up for it this week. I lost 2.4 pounds! I am really happy for the loss, but I think a lot of it was water weight that I gained last week . Girls, you know what I mean.

Anyway, I am slowly, but surely getting closer to my goal. Hopefully by next week I will have hit the 20 pound mark!

As I near closer to my triathlon date and up my training, I am not so focused on eating within my points. I try to make good choices and watch my portions, but I want to make sure I am eating enough to make it through the race. I will definitely be hitting up Provino’s the night before the race to carb load. Finally, I have an excuse to eat lots of pasta! Only 10 more days!

I don’t think I have mentioned it on here before. I have only been blogging about my weight loss since I joined WW. But, before that I was trying to lose my baby weight on my own. I just hit a plateau and needed some extra help to get the rest off. I was thinking the other day that I have lost a lot more than the 19 pounds in the last few months. To date I have lost 61.2 pounds since I had Jackson! That amazes me! Not that I am tooting my own horn, I am just amazed that I had all that extra weight on me at one point.  I know a majority of that was baby weight, but I have to remember that a lot of women never lose their baby weight. My secret to losing the majority of that weight was breast feeding. I definitely was not out at the gym or anything even close to that. BFing burns 500 calories a day, so it was the best work out I could do. 

Ok, enough about me. I hope everyone had a great week and is getting closer to their own goals. Shout out to Grammy and her 2.2 pound loss this week! Yay Grammy! I know you said it wasn’t you, but I think it was you. Keep up the good work!
