Ending weight : 161.8 lb
Change : 5.2 lb lost (average 1.2lb lost per week)
This time last year : 168 lb (8 weeks pregnant)
This month was great and I surpassed my goal of 4lbs lost. I'm back where I was almost exactly two years ago when I was on my biggest downswing and on the road to becoming a lifetime member. If I was able to get to 148.2 lbs by Christmas then while not exercising as intensely and breastfeeding, I should be able to get there no problem if I stick to it.
There are 20 weeks til Christmas and 13.6lbs to lose to make it to that goal. That means an average of 0.7lb loss per week until then. Going by that, I should be trying to reach a 3.4lb loss for the month of August. Ideally, I want to be back at the upper level of my lifetime goal (157), so I'm going to shoot for that at 4.8lbs this month. If I don't get there, I won't beat myself up since I've been doing so well and eventually the weight won't come off as fast. If I get somewhere in between the two numbers I will be happy.
I was looking back at some old beach pics and wish I'd found this one yesterday before blogging about bikinis. The one on the left with my brothers is from 2008 before I had either kid. I feel way better about how I look now, considering my belly was worse before it was stretched out by two kids. My goal is to look better at 30 (yikes, but still several years away) than I did at 16, 18, or even 20.
