January First

Weigh in: 252. Next January I would like to see that at 190. Now, how to do that. I still don't know. I will just count calories. Last January I weighed 235. That's a gain of 12 pounds this year. It would have been really easy to lose 12 pounds, but no, I gained 12!

  1. I'm just starting back to counting calories myself, as is my friend Deedra. If you ever need support, feel free to check out my blog! We can do this!

  2. 12lbs in a year is the equivalent to 1lb a month. In the big scheme of things, is it really that bad? 12lbs is a good 6-8 weeks and I have every faith in you. Good luck with your journey this year! :)

  3. Well, back to losing and being committed then? It's that 'simple'. Happy New Year, make 2012 count! You're.Worth.It.

  4. Keeping track of calories in my mind or memory has worked for me in a steady way for 3 years. Seems to steer on autopilot in the right direction!

  5. Congrats, first for making a plan and a commitment to yourself! I've always struggled with weight and this past September I finally decided to change that. I didn't want to be the biggest person in the room or to have later health issues. I knew I couldn't do it alone, I'd tried that for 25+ years and the scale number only got larger. I decided to join Weight Watchers, I know its not for everyone but you might try to find a similar type of support group. the accountability piece is HUGE!!! I've lost 20lbs in about 17 weeks. And its real weight loss, not water weight, i've gone down 3 pant sizes!!

    Anyways, Good luck! its not easy that's for sure. its all about staying focused and figuring out what works for you!

  7. Congrats on your accomplishments so far!! That is excellent what you have been able to achieve! It's definitely great to have a support network to work off of. I recently just joined a 90 Day Challenge to achieve my personal weight loss goals. It may be beneficial to join a group so that you can stay accountable. There is actually a very large group of us that are starting up on the challenge, and it's a GREAT way to network, stay accountable, and achieve goals.

    We have a network online. We're using ViSalus Sciences to achieve our goals without having to change too much of our daily routines. It might make your challenge more like a "piece of cake" than you thought. :-)

    You can check out the challenge here: 90DAYFITCHALLENGE.CO

    Best wishes and keep up the hard work!

  9. It is great that you are sharing your journey here so we can encourage you. I've just stumbled upon your blog today, so did some catch up reading. Your experiences seem pretty typical, so don't be hard on yourself. A book that really turned things around for me is Health at Every Size by Linda Bacon. Might be a good winter read.

    I look forward to reading more about your successes!

  10. So happy to find your blog today, have went back to read your previous posts and it seems so many of us share the same struggle with weight loss. I have struggled with the same 10 lbs for 3 years and can't believe I'm having such a hard time losing weight, but I have a positive attitude this time around and will be joining you this year in making a positive change in my life. Keep up the good work and it will pay off for you. :)

  12. Hi! I found really great online shop where you can earn money. Each friend that registers because of you, earns you 1$ on your account (they send the money to your account at the end of each month). If you invite a lot of friends, and they all register, you have a lot of money on the account and you can actually order something for free. So, click here to register and start earning some money for shopping :-)

  13. Hi, I just came across your blog (by hitting next blog) and I can totally relate to your weight woes. I come from a family where almost everyone is overweight, so I'm constantly watching what I eat. It's a slippery slope for me too, and I know how easy it is to fall down. I just wanted to drop a line to give you encouragement because you're not in this alone.

    Take care!

  22. This is a wonderful little blog. It can be difficult to keep up the momentum when dieting, but persevere, you WILL get where you want to be. I have a little blog about beauty remedies that just make me feel better when i'm feeling down. Maybe give a few of them a try if you're having a bad day and see if they pick you up :)

    Love,

  24. I have been noticing my weight creeping up and up these past 5 years... By 2 stone... So I need to loose a bit of weight... I am a
    Ready using the wii fit and it helps a bit and calorie watching has helped me a bit... Until I forget or eat chocolate... Ho hum, so I have decided to try a Rosemary Conley diet as I can understand calories more than sins or points... So far the recipes are lovely... But as its only a couple of days in I don't know if it works yet,,. Good luck with your diet! J.
