Becky Boo’s Weightloss for LIFE

Ok, so this is what it looks like on. I will try to post another pic on here of what it looks like when the gem stone is being changed out. I will buy another gem stone setting once I lose another 30 pounds!

Hi all. I worked today. We did not walk at the mall and we DID go out for Mexican food as a group. I am okay with it. I have been going super low on my cals for about 5 days and so one day of a HIGH… Should not cause me too much damage in losing two pounds a week. I am so happy to report my gift to myself for losing 30 pounds arrived today. It is a ring I ordered from a jewelry studio in Wichita, KS. It is the one I talked about before on here where you can order other stones in different setting and change them out to make it look like a completely different ring. You can also order different ring guards too. I chose to begin with my birthstone, the blue topaz. I will order another stone when I reach my NEXT mini goal! I am going to show the ring and setting to a guy that owns a jewelry studio here to see if he can make the settings for me so I don’t have to order all the way from Kansas next time. If he can’t, I will stick with this guy cause I am SOOO impressed with the final product that he makes ALL himself in his studio. I will post it but for some reason I cant do it here without covering up the text so I will put it in another post right after this one… I hope you are all having a good weekend. I am back to work again tmorrow

Hi everyone. I weighed on today and have met my first mini goal of a total 30 pound weightloss! A day ago it was a little more than that but I will SOOO take the two pound loss! I set my new mini goal to be thirty more pounds down at 218. I hope to be there by June (fingers crossed)… But if not, that is ok too I can’t afford new clothes yet so I am not too worried about it. I thought I had given away all of my 18s a little while back but to my DELIGHT—I found the ones I had saved—yipppeee! So they fit and I am SOOO excited. I was wearing a 22 when I began to lose and now can wear 20s and 18s so I am pleased with that for now. Well, I am off to order my textbooks on line since school started this past week… I will be on and off tonight. Hope you are all doing well and enjoy your weekend ( I will be working)!

Hi all. Ok, it is so weird. Hunger or lack there of. For the past few days I have eaten plenty. I have been a little hungry during the day but then when I come home and have my dinner meal, I still dont have enough calories fo rthe day but I am not hungry. I know I will need to eat some more calories before I go to sleep and it is 8:45 pm. This is the third day in a row of this. It is as if right now I either go over three days (this past fri, sat and sun) or now under three days. And probably next week I will be back to 1400-1600 all week. IT all goes back to some days are more difficult and some days are easier. I didnt get my egg in today… I ate two yesterday and since Holly is concerned about my cholesterol I skipped today. This journey is teaching me a lot about my body. Anyone else feel that way? I mean, I am feeling really good for the most part and, eventhough tomorrow (fingers crossed) I will have an over thirty pound total weightloss, I am still seriously overweight at this point, I feel great. I feel like I walk easier, sleep easier, breathe easier. I cant remember what being truly healthy feels like so if I feel this much better with 30 pounds down, I cant wait for 100! But I will get there one day, and then I will know again! I am so thankful for these good days — they will help me plan for the tough days. I am learning the things that fill me up and what is just empty stuff. And I now know just how awful the alcohol and fattening foods make me feel—and how many days it takes to get back on track after eating badly or drinking. I am so much more aware of what causes me to feel certain ways now. I did my two miles of mall walking today. One of the residents did the whole two miles with me. It was pretty sweet. I REALLY love my job sometimes. Well, I weigh in tomorrow and I am hoping the scale shows the fruits of my labor! I hope you all have a great evening and a Happy Friday! MAke good choices—you are worth it!

Good night all. I just got home from school and ate dinner. I still need to eat at least 300 more cals before I go to sleep. School is going to be SOOO much easier this semester—-YIPEEE!!! And my teach er is hilarious. YAY! So I decided yeaterday to change my weigh in day to Fridays from now on. That is when I have to report to the Wild Cats so it just makes sense. But, as those of you who know me know, I am an EVERY day scale person and I am telling you now I am NOT just going to get to my mini goal weight but I am going to BUST right on past it. Promises promises. And this is with a weekend where I ate, on avg for 3 days, 2500 calories… Sad, but true. This will  mean that I will have lost over 30 pounds—YAY! So that Beautiful winter wonderland from lastnight wasnt so sweet when I woke up to about 8 or so inches of the white stuff and had to shovel for 30-40 minutes just so I could get out of the driveway. I am counting that as my workout because it reminded me of the first week of basketball in highschool when I was so out of breathe from physical activity that I was SURE I was going to die. I am going to stay on track with eating and get the exercise when I get it. I am not sure if I will be able to get the mall walking in tomorrow or  not. I will be super busy but I can always go myself after work. Hmm, there is a thought! Well, I just wanted to make sure I got on and said hello since I have been gone since seven something this morning. I hope you are all doing well and making good choices. Thank you all for your support—it is working! Now I need to go find some more calories before bedtime…

LuLu my Border Collie enjoying the

SNOW! And it just KEEPS coming down.

I am watching the Biggest Loser now…

Ok, I have been home from work for almost two hours and just looked outside—there is at least two, if not three, more inches of snow out there and it is still STEADY coming down—supposedly til Midnight! Oh me oh my!

I am watching Oprah and her guest just said that starting your day with something HIGH in protein like eggs will help you to burn 65% more calories during the day. WHAT?!?!?!?!?!? I am so getting eggs on Thursday!

Hi all. I hope everyone is doing well. Here ice is falling from the sky. It snowed all day and then started icing when I was almost home. I took the pup outside and my hair was turning to ice. So the dogs are SUPER bored and stuck inside all night with me. Yippie! And I think they are missing the walks we had started last week and I had held to religiously. I will get them back there once this CRAP weather goes away! I did take the ladies to the mall today to walk. I , as did my co worker, walked two miles and two of the ladies walked one and one lady chose not to walk at all. I am on track today with eating too so YAY! Ok so I have been picking different things to wear each day based on what I have not worn in awhile. When I wear it, I decided if it is fitting well enough to hold onto or if it is big enough to donate. I am HAPPY to announce I am finding MANY things are no longer fitting me. I have also found that I may have been wearing some things that were too tight as there are some things I feel should be bigger than they are at this point I can say that my bras are too big now. Sux too cause I really like them but it is a SMALL price to pay for this weight to be going bye bye… I am not buying new clothes yet though. I am going to try not to buy anything new til I reach my next mini goal which I think will be 236. I need to reach this one first though! I am kind of kicking myself over getting rid of all my next size down clothes last year. I could really use them about now and alot of it was nice and fairly new. Oh well, I will save some money and go shopping when I lose more. School begins tomorrow (assuming the weather improves-they cancelled somem of the classes today) and I am ready for it. I enjoy my classes. Alrighty, I hope everyone has a great evening and is making good choices
