For those who have followed me since the beginning you know that I once posted every week about my transition to a healthier lifestyle. After a while I became bored with posting about health so I continued to live my lifestyle, but stopped posting. Now I have been inspired to post each week about my progress as I aim to reach a new goal of 165 pounds.
Last week I weighed in at the doctor’s office at 185 pounds and set a goal for yesterday’s weigh-in at 183 lbs. I am happy so say I recorded a weight of 181.6 lbs. I did a good job of watching my calories, walking Bentley a couple of times at night and did not drink my calories. Honestly I believe eliminating calorie drinks made a huge difference. Needless to say I am thrilled!
So this week I am setting my goal at 180 lbs. I understand that it is not the healthiest thing to lose a lot of weight each week so I will make sure I eat 2000 calories each day and drink plenty of water. Plenty of calories will ensure my energy level stays high and remains consistent.
How is your healthy living going? Nonexistent? Remember you only have one body so try to take care of it!
Good job!
Thank you Ritu!
I’m on my own health kick… 14 weeks in now. Posting every week is encouraging me! Lost 19lbs! I hit my target now I’m losing a few more to ‘save for a rainy day’!

Congrats on your success. I checked out your post and admire your commitment over the 4 months!
Thank you!!! It’s all with a little willpower!!!
😀
Congrats on this accomplishment 🙂
Thank you Fabi!
Goal setting is so important! Keep up the great work!
I will. I noticed I was getting lax in what I allowed myself to eat and my waistline began to expand! lol
That’s great! I indulge in a coffee drink I make at home, once a day. Otherwise, it’s just healthy food, and not a lot of it. Water helps. Good luck!
I believe the best change anyone can make is to eliminate sugar drinks and only drink water. Proper hydration alone can change someones life.
The coffee drink is my indulgence. But water is important for me.
I drink a couple coffees in the morning but that is all.
I have a powdered cappuccino. Yum

My health is excellent. In fact I’m much healthier than when I was younger. Mind you I take very good care of it. For me health is mind and body health, actually more mind than body. Nowadays people who look after their health pay too much attention to body health because they are concerned with their image and none or little to mind health. In the end they experience problems due to such imbalance.
Mind body and spirit are all interconnected. My body is the link for me. When I take care of my body the other two fall in line.
Well done and keep it up. I’m on it too and you actually made me start again and post about it. An update is overdue but at the moment I struggle a bit as number-wise nothing is moving right now. I seem to be stuck after having lost 3kg. The encouraging thing is that I am eating healthier, I am exercising even more and I actually lost 3 cm around my waist, about to hit 4cm… so something is happening although the numbers on the scale seem to not move. I’ll give it another week to the next post I write. Let’s see what will happen over the next couple of days 😉
Sounds good. I actually looked for an update from you to link to in my post but didn’t see one.
Thanks for linking!
