As promised to those doing this with me, here are my week two results!
I gained to 168.1.
I am not surprised by the result at all. Though I met my goal of not eating past 8pm, I did not stick with my spinach regimine, nor did I care what I ate during the day. In fact, yesterday, I had several slices of white bread and butter.
I blame several factors this week. Thursday, er, my monthly visitor showed, complete with cravings and bloating. And irritability. Lucky family.
This was on the tail end of a week of dealing with a very sick baby. Megan had a double ear infection plus bronchitis this week. She wanted nothing but to be held. Pretty hard to make a healthy breakfast and lunch when a child does not want to be put down.
So, on week two, I gained. But I am ok with that. This is the reason I am giving myself 52 weeks to lose 38 pounds. There will be some weeks that it just won’t work.
This week, my goal is to get back on the healthy train, still not eat past 8 pm, and then I am going to add drinking at least 32 ounces of water a day. I’d like to do 64 ounces, but baby steps!
For those of you joining me, how was your week?
I need to jump back on the healthy kick. I've slacked so much and gained 1/2 the weight back that I lost.
Do it with me girl! We can be each others supporters! ;)
I am impressed you would share actual numbers online. I too need to lose weight, closer to 60lbs though. I did buy spinach after our twitter exchange :). I'm pretty sure I gained tho and will try to report in weekly. Thanks for inviting us to join! Nice to be accountable.
Hello! I'm a new follower from the Monday Mingle! Don't fret…stress and other factors may get the better of the scale but those things will fade as your positive attitude grows! Good Luck – I should be doing the same!!

New Follower here! I found your blog from Mom in Management and I think I'm ready to start your weight loss journey, but I have to be honest, I don't think I want to post my weight online (quite a few pounds heavier then yours I might say) and probably not until after the holidays. I have family in from out of town and too much craziness going on to try to diet right now. So Jan. 3rd (when my company leaves) I'll be on board!!! And I'll be blogging about it! Thanks for the encouragement – I'll keep reading and following! http://itscrazycheap.blogspot.com/
No need to post your weight at all! I do it because it motivates me! We'll see you in January! YEA!!
