2013: New Year, New Start

2013:  New Year, New Start


It's 2013!  The start of a new year!  The start of the new weight loss journey for Shawn and I!  We are focusing at getting back on track with losing weight, working out at the gym, and getting healthier.  We did great two years ago and both lost weight; I can't remember how much Shawn lost but it was over 50 pounds, and I lost 50 pounds, plus we both lost ALOT of inches and just felt healthier and happier.  Then last year, we got off track and I put 32 of those pounds back on.  I'm determined this year to get those 32 pounds back off and more!  Shawn won a free family membership to the YMCA again this year so we have no excuses for not going.  He was up at 4:15 this morning and headed to the gym to walk the track and play basketball with the guys.  I've shaved my legs and have my swimbag ready for water aerobics on Thursday. 

Today's lunch consisted of a frozen Healthy Choice General Tso's Spicy Chicken Asian steamer meal and frozen Lean Cuisine egg rolls.  Probably not the greatest, but definitely much better than the egg drop soup, egg roll, white rice, and sweet and sour chicken that I had from Shing Lee's on Monday :(


I weighed in on the scale at work this morning and my starting weight was 331.2 pounds and will weigh-in weekly on Wednesday's.  My work scale is the only scale I'm going to use for weigh-ins to get the most accurate reading.  And I need to have Shawn weigh-in tonight at home to get his starting weight.  I also want to take our measurements and possibly get some "before" picture shots.
