Christmas Eve

 

I finally figured out why my photos were not available to post! Now I can post pictures once again!!

I haven't been taking many photos since I could not upload to blogger. I'll have to take photos of our tree etc. 

Day #25 of my weight loss diet. 

We went to the gym for the 2nd time yesterday. I had two hydromassage for a total of 20 minutes. Defiantly a perk for working out. I did bike on the fat burning setting for 21 minutes and did various weights for my arms and legs. Not sure how much time, but I lifted 10 times on each machine. I'm a little sore today on my shoulders. 

I finished off my Chicken Thai soup yesterday having a big bowl. Plus, had 3 cups of popcorn, and a sliver of pizza. After dinner I ate an entire pomegranate. It was delicious! A little over calories I'm guessing 730 for the day. Still under 1000 and over 500. 

Today is Christmas Eve.. tomorrow Christmas where I reach my goal date for weight loss. Am I at my goal weight? Nope. I plan to continue my weight loss till January 1st. The 2nd big goal date and then January 31st the 3rd goal date. Will I be at my goal weight? That's 5 weeks away. I plan to be a lot closer if I stick to 500 calories a day weight loss that's 4 to 5 pounds of loss per week. Another 20 - 25 pounds gone! I'm just going to continue going to the gym and eating less to lose the rest of the weight. 

I tried on more old sweaters and they once again fit, but could be a lot looser. I'll wait until the end of January before trying on old jeans. I'll need to be around 155 at least or lower to fit into any of those. More like 145. I'm going for 155 and anything below is a plus! 

Maintaining, I'll have to continue to count calories and not go above 1500 for the day. Plus, I'll need to keep working out and adding more to burn the extra calories I'm eating. 

I'm hoping next week with the warm up to the 30's, I can get out and cross country ski too! My pass is paid and ready to go. I'll use it as much as the weather and ski conditions allow. 

Merry Christmas Eve... 

Back to baking and cleaning today!
