Happy Valentines Day!

Okay, so I broke one of my rules, I weighed-in again today knowing that I was close yesterday to reaching my goal weight of 175 pounds.  Sure enough, I reached it!  Sixty lbs. gone in one year, 2/14/2011=235 lbs., 2/14/2012=175 lbs.!  Checkout the new photos and I will post the new goals soon.

One Year

Day 365

Today represents the one year anniversary since starting the twinkie2diet.  Weigh-in, 176 lbs., only one pound short of the goal.  I should be there by next week.  Today I will boost my food intake to 2200 kcals and continue with the plan, balance, consistency, and discipline.  Once I reach the goal of 175, I will gradually add calories until I reach an equal balance.  It's been a great year!

Week 52

Day 364

Tomorrow represents the one year anniversary of the beginning of the twinkie2diet.  I am so thankful for the support of friends, students, family, and myself.  God has given me a gift and I really want to do something with it!  The goal of 175 lbs. has always been at the top of my list, but when I weigh-in tomorrow, it means so much more that that.  I am confident that the rest of my life will represent a winding down of  many things, but again, I want to go out swinging!

Week 52

Day 358

Last week of a one year journey and I weighed-in at 178 lbs., fifty-seven down, three pounds to go!  I keep looking at the photo from last February and I just can't believe it, truly an amazing journey!  As I wrap up the first year of the twinkie2diet, I am already planning ahead to next.  I will begin outlining new goals soon.

I am in the process of deciding on several options of biking and running races.  I am even thinking of getting back into the sport triathlon.  I feel pretty good and the energy level hasn't been this high in years.  Thanks to everyone for all your support and encouragement!
