Weight Loss Goals

Before we moved from NC I had an awesome routine of going to the gym everyday and using this app:

myfitnesspal

I was diligent about logging my workouts and meals. It worked wonders and I lost 10 pounds! I was so happy and I know that most of the weight I had gained was from fertility drugs and treatments. I finally felt good about myself and was determined to lose another 10 pounds. Well then we moved and spent the next months in limbo; between traveling and seeing family my weight loss suffered. I didn't gain anything back but I wasn't losing. 


Last week I decided that I needed to get back to my weight loss effort. I don't like doing diets, I don't have to cut anything out but I do eat in moderation. I eat until I am satisfied not until I am full. I drink 8-10 glasses of water a day and drink a diet soda maybe twice a month. It has done wonders and I feel amazing. 

Instead of going back to the gym I have decided to go on long walks instead (believe me Fort Huachuca has some awesome hills and I get a good workout). I get up in the morning, have breakfast and turn this on:

This is another app that I love, I have been trying to walk at least 3 miles per day and so far I have been successful. 

I'm not afraid to tell everyone my weight:

When I started this weight loss journey about 6 months ago I was:

146 pounds

I went down to:

136 pounds

After 1 week back on this journey, I weigh:

133.4

Woo hoo!!!

I want to get down to 125 and I know that I can do it! 


What do you use to help with working out and weight loss?
