back to the beginning

I have decided to start this blog as my own kinda on line weight loss journal in hopes to get me motivated and back on track. to give you a bit of background (and for my own sake) i'm going back to the beginning..

I started my weight loss journey back in August 2010. I went to a family function, and after seeing the photos realized how big I had gotten. I knew I had to do something. At this time I weighed in at 211 pounds. These are the photos that opened my eyes.

At this time I decided to do weight watchers. I had done it in the past and it worked, so I started again using tools i found online and didnt have to pay for. In no time I seemed to have things under control.

• Aug 1 2010 = 211 pounds (the biggest I have ever been)
• Sep 5 2010 = 199.2  pounds (down 11.8)
• Oct 3 2010 = 194.8 pounds  (down  16.2)
• Nov 1 2010 =190.6 pounds (down 20.4)
• Dec 4 2010 =182.2 pounds (down 28.8)

then came christmas and things slowed down for me. all the baking and eating did not go so well.

• Jan 1 2011 =180.8 (down 30.2)
• Feb 1 2011 =176.6 (down 34.4) 
• Mar 1 2011 =172.2 (down 38.8)
• Apr 1 2011 =169.6 (down  41.4) - during this month i made it all the way down to 166.6

since then things have not been going so well. i have been gaining and losing the same weight constantly. to give a better idea check these weighins out.

April 6 - 166.6 pounds, April 13 170.0, April 27 still 170.0
May 9 - 169.6 pounds, May 23 174.6(!!!!)
