Weigh-in … Monday?

Yeah, I weighed in Friday, I just didn’t have time to post! So I weighed in again this morning, and luckily, I am still at the same point (aka, I didn’t gain over the weekend!).

2/18/13
Last weigh-in: 254.5
Today: 253.5
Change: -1

Back down that one pound again! Yay!

I leave tomorrow for a week-long work trip, so I won’t be posting much (if at all). I don’t want to make any promises about my eating habits while I’m away. But I will say this: I’m going to try harder than ever before while on the road. It’s so easy for me to pick up a bag of peanut butter M&Ms or eat lots of fast food. This time, I really I want to make a conscious effort to eat more healthfully. And drinks LOTS of water.

So that’s my goal for the week! Just to do the absolute best I can. Hopefully when I return next week, I’ll have maintained this weight. That would be lovely! And I’ll be eager to get back to working out when I return, too. I’ll need that stress relief.

Until then, have a great week! I’ll be on Twitter a lot…so check in on me there & ask me how I’m doing. I need the accountability!

I am Jennifer Dome, a 33-year-old woman living in Birmingham, Ala., miles from my Northeast-based family and some of my closest friends, but loving the Magic City, my BF and the friends I’ve made here in the South. I’ve lived in nine different states, plus London, and worked for some top-notch publications (Southern Living, Women’s Wear Daily) as a writer and copy editor. Now I am the assistant editor at a bass fishing magazine. I’ve struggled with my weight for as long as I remember, at one time tipping the scale at 289 pounds. At the end of 2009, weighing in at about 275, I started counting calories and exercising regularly, finally finding some success in this ongoing battle. After a scare from my doctor in early 2010, that success became even more important to my overall health. It’s still a challenge, and the scale definitely moves up and down instead of just down, but my confidence that I will reach my goal is solid.

  1. Maintaining is a good goal too and planning to drink plenty of water. If you focus on those you may see other healthful behaviors follow. One thing I recently read on another blog is, “there will be sweets tomorrow too.” Maybe think about the candy and fast food that way. Whether traveling or at home they will always be around so no need to feel like all or nothing when on the road. Will check twitter, I am @lose2maintain.
