It all started with this pair of jeans I bought in New York. I didn't try them on in the store, once in the hotel room I decided to try them on... as I struggled to pull them above my thighs, I thought ahhhh.. what a perfect incentive. These would be the pants I am going to focus on fitting into.
I weighed myself this morning... my scale told me that I have gained 22 pounds in the past 6 months (roughly)... when I watched 160 pop up on my scale, it startled me so deeply that I almost dropped my donut. The nerve.
This really isn't my first rodeo losing weight, in March of 2007 I started at 223 pounds... this was me:
Then I started doing the low carb thing - my lowest weight was 138 pounds, this me at my lowest (pardon the picture, it is a little wierd, but is the only full length pic I could find!):
I have since gained 22 pounds back and this is me at 160 pounds (center):
I have decided that I am going to try this again - my goal this time: 130 pounds.. I have 30 pounds to lose with a deadline of: 4.4.10
This time I am going to workout 3x per week, I didn't do that before (just ate low carb); I am also not eating after 7:30pm.
I am hoping that in 3 months I will be struttin' my stuff in my New York jeans!
Here's to a successful endeavor and the motivation to carry me through!

You can do it!!
Or just move to Brussels with me and then we NEVER eat out (the food sucks) and always eat at home and you'll lose weight and not even mean to :-)
That sounds like a plan. See you next week!
