Thank you to everyone who followed my posts last week during my partial juice fast.
If you read the title of this post, you already know how much weight I lost — a total of 4 lbs. last week! π
My eyes were wide when I looked down at the scale this morning. I wasn’t expecting to see that I’d gone from 192.5 lbs. to 188.5 lbs. in one week.
And I did it without starving myself, as you all well know, because I shared all of my meals with you.
This week, I’m still going to juice as often as I can, and I’m going to start walking on the treadmill. On Sunday, I was able to unpack the last huge box that was left on the treadmill, so now I have no excuse as to why I can’t get on and start moving.
I also have an accountability partner in my friend, Patty, and we’ve agreed to email each other once a week to see how we’ve done with our weight loss goal for the week. My goal this week is to walk on the treadmill 4 days. Knowing I’m going to check-in with Patty next week is definitely going to help me to stay on track with this goal.
Β And now here’s what my weight loss progress looks like so far:
Beginning weight: 192.5Β lbs.
Current Weight: 188.5Β lbs.
Goal Weight: 152.5Β lbs.
# of total pounds I want to lose in 2013:Β 40 lbs.
# of pounds to go until I reach my goal: 36Β lbs.
Total # of pounds lost to date: 4Β lbs.
How is your weight loss progress coming along?

Looks like the juicing really worked well for your weight loss. I have no idea how I did this week with my weight loss goals as I only weigh once a month. But my eating this month has not been the best. But I still have a few weeks to do better. I am really happy you had a great weigh in. π

Thank you so much, Shelly! I’m impressed that you only weigh yourself once a month. I couldn’t do it…I have to weigh myself everyday to know where I’m at and how I’m doing. Plus we have two scales in our bathroom, and it’d be way too tempting.

Wow, what a great first week! I hope that it continues to go so well for you! Keep up the great work.
Patty says
Congrats on the four pounds, Sandra! That’s awesome! I did great counting calories yesterday, was feeling pretty good about myself too, until I found myself with some unexpected alone time with two of my kids last night, and we all wanted goodies! So, with a few calories to spare, I’m sure I went overboard with my big bowl of ice cream and chocolate syrup! But, today is a new day and I’m not planning a repeat of last night!

That’s awesome, Sandra!!! I bet it feels great to be making such great progress toward your goal.
Sandra says
It does, Paula. I just need to stay focused and keep the momentum. π
