Day Two Hundred and Sixty-Six - New Goal is Set!

I'm finishing my thirty-ninth week today.  This means that I have ninety-nine days remaining.  I know that in all likelihood I won't be down to two hundred pounds at the one year mark.  I'm alright with that because, as I've said before, I have lost more now than I had hoped to lose in a year.  I would like to weigh two hundred and twenty pounds by September, which would leave me with only twenty pounds to lose (which I think I could drop by Thanksgiving).  So I'm making a new goal today.  I want to hit two hundred and twenty pounds by September first.  I know that by following my processes, and leaning on you all for accountability, I will be able to hit this goal.

Tomorrow morning is another weigh in.  These past two weeks I haven't felt super confident in my loss.  I've been working out really hard each day, but I just haven't felt like I was making progress on my weight.  When I feel like this it always makes me nervous about my weigh in.  So tomorrow I'm hoping for over two pounds lost.  I'd love to be under two hundred and forty-five pounds when I step on the scale.  We'll have to wait until the morning to see where I am.  No matter what it says, I'm not going to stop losing my butter half.

My calorie intake today was really good.  I was careful about not snacking and making sure to make wise choices at my meals.  My workout this morning was really good.  The push-ups are still really tough, but I'm getting there.  I think the process of building up to forty-five per day is going to take a while.
