Almost to 70!!

I don't think it had actually hit me until today what the numbers were on the scale..175.4!! I had see from 179 to 177 for the past few weeks but I don't think I realized that I was in the 170's until today. It seems like such a small number, I know to some its not but to me it is:) and it makes me so happy to know I'm only 15.4 from goal! Hopefully I'll be able to keep in my grove and not stall for weeks before it moves again! 2.4 pounds and I'll be at 70 pounds lost and will post progress pictures then! I also have a few NSV's to share! I actually ran for the first time last week...only 100meters at a time but it was still running lol...I've been doing the walking and then running thing for the past week every other day and I was actually able to just jog for 2 miles last night! I couldn't believe I was able to! Then when I got home my hubby wanted to go for a bike ride and we ended up doing 8 miles, and I wasn't all that tired when we first got home and I was very happy with myself for pushing through all of it, my legs feel like jello today though:) I can also do between 15-20 pushups now..never did I think I'd be able to. i also went to my first zumba class! I loved it, but I'm sure I looked ridiculous doing it. I so don't want summer to end! I love being able to exercise outside...and all the fruit! But I hope everyone its doing well from what I've seen on MFP you all are still kicking butt!!

After Vacation

So I thought I'd give a little update on whats been going on this week. The doctor did confirm a miscarriage yesterday when I went, no heartbeat but my hcg levels were raised..looks like I was about 8 weeks along, they are going to check in 2 weeks again just to be sure. thanks to everyone who has sent me messages..I really appreciate all the concern!
On a different note the 5 pounds I was up is now gone:) plus an extra .4!! Way excited over that..I feel like I'm starting to get into the swing of this again! Hopefully it'll keep coming off now. I just hit my 6 month mark and would love to at least have lost 70 pounds by my 7 month mark! I still haven't been on MFP as much as I would like to be..with commenting and stuff but hopefully I'll get back to being a good MFP'er soon:)

Kinda Disappeared For Awhile!

Sorry everyone I kinda disappeared! Its been busy around here since summer started and I just haven't been able to keep up with everything. As far as the weight loss goes I hit 65 pounds lost a few weeks ago...but since then I've kinda been maintaining. I still plan on losing the other 18 pounds but with how my schedule has been and vacation I just decided as long as I maintained I'd be ok for a little while. We got home today from our vacation..we went to Palm Desert California and stayed and the Shadow Ridge Resort, it was super nice! We also went into San Diego for a couple of days and went to the zoo and Sea world. I had alot of fun:) The whole time out there I felt like I had gained so much weight back..before we left I was up 3 pounds from the 65..when we got home around 7:30p.m. tonight I got on the scale and was up another 2 pounds. So I would only be at 60..but I figure I'll see what I'm at in the morning and give myself a few days to get back into the swing of things to see if it'll come back off, before I add it back on to my ticker. I tried to eat the best I could on vacation and was under calories for the most part..but not sure if I was on the fat. I have kinda got out of the routine of logging what I eat into MFP..I even lost all my days because I forgot to log in the day we went to Sea world I was upset with myself..but I'm going to start fresh on Monday and keep working towards my goal!
As far as hitting some of my mini-goals, I can fit into most the size 8's I have worn a few of them...they still fit kinda tight. But I am happy I can at least fit into them:)
Also something that has been kinda tough..I'm about 99% sure I had a miscarriage last weekend when we first got on vacation. I won't go into alot of detail, but I''m going to the doctor Tuesday to see what exactly is going on and to make sure everything is ok with me and to see if I did or am pregnant..even though I'm pretty sure I'm not. Its sure a weird thing to go through, especially since I really didn't know for sure I was pregnant..just had symptoms and figured I'd see if my TOM would hit or not and then go from there. Its been an emotional ride this week also and something I've been trying to get through without stuffing my face with everything I could..like I would have before.
Anyways I hope everyone has been doing Great!! I've missed y'all and I hope to get back in the swing of things this week!!
