So with the stress of it all I had set my goal to allow myself to take some “me” time and focus on my emotional side through the holidays.  I had just reached 199 lbs, onederland!, when I decided to do so so I made the choice to simply try to maintain my 199 lbs over the last few weeks.  I want to let you all know I am still weighing in at exactly 199 lbs!  I’m excited because although I did not lose weight, I was able to keep from gaining!  I am not going to weigh in again until the first Saturday of the new year, and am hoping to then be at 198.  I am ready to do this!  I have a long way to go, I want to atleast lose another 49 lbs.  I’m not looking at it like that though.  I’ve decided to set mini goals that I want to accomplish weekly, but keep in sight 9 lbs total to be a medium mini goal.  Then when the 9 lbs go I’ll set a new medium mini goal.  I really do think that I can do this.  I look at the fact that I’ve lost 15 lbs already and know I can do much more.  Nobody really notices my 15 lbs off, but I know that my clothes actually fit now.  Most of my pants are actually too big now, and I’ve been forced to add a new hole into my belt. 

My husband is showing interest in losing weight, but I worry because he doesn’t want to watch what he eats, or work out at all.  I don’t want to let him bring me down, and I want to lift him up, but I need to find a way to show him that you have to put in the work.  Starting tomorrow I will be limiting my calories to 1393 daily.  That sounds kind of like a lot to me, but 7 times your weight(if you are between 150 and 300 lbs) is what is recommended by the biggest loser.  Money has been super tight with the hoidays, but I am determined to do this, I can eat cheap and healthy!  Let me know if you guys have any suggestions to help my hubby!  Sorry this is so scattered, that’s been my brain lately.  Hugs!
