2 Weeks In: 6 Pounds Down
So I’ve now completed 2 weeks of my push to lose 40lbs by my birthday on June 15th, 2009. This past week I lost another 3 pounds. Made it to the gym 3 times, and ate decently well. No soda again this week. That’s two weeks now, and it’s starting to feel good. I can feel the need for caffeine and such leaving. I also had no fries this week, which is a huge thing for me. Some chips snuck up on me, so that’ll be my next “no-no” item. We’ll see how easily we can get through a week withought chips, and eating well.
I know it’s going to take some time, but I’m excited to be on the right path. Got a lot of things to do today, so I’ll make this post short. Make sure to chime in and offer ideas of support, let me know about your own journey, or pick on me a little if that helps.
Hey great job. you have given yourself a very tough goal, but I’m sure with much support and persaverance(sp?) you will make it …keep up the good work. By the way your struggles and success are helping me with my goal of now 25lbs by my anniversary in June. It was originally 45lbs but I have lost 20lbs in the past 2 months.

Maggie. Thanks for the kind words. I’m sure I’ll get there. I’m finding that small items each week is really helping. My two goals of no soda and no fries seemed like mountains two weeks ago, now, it’s as easy as deciding on where to eat, and making the choice to seek other replacements. I think that one or two goals a week helps make it more attainable.
Of course, support means a lot too. Hope you keep rocking your goal of losing weight. How many years will you two have been married in June?
