Let's get Honest

Okay, so I hit a big goal this week.  I lost x number of pounds (i'll tell you in  bit).  I wanted to look back at when I first started talking about my weight to see what my loss has been and when I really started with it.  Well, I started talking about it in mid-March.  I said that I was 180...which I really was about 181 to 182.  Truthfully.  And in that same post, I had started my weightloss goals from that 180 mark.  Which is not entirely true.

Let's Get Honest!

When I had Jack, my highest weight was 204.  (UUUGHHHH).  Makes me cringe to say that.  But it's okay, it was all worth it.  I had gained about 40 pounds, well I had lost the first 20 quickly with ease.  Then for about a year (hostly) I was stuck at aout 184.  I didn't much think about it too much because I was so busy and he was born at the beginning of bathing suit season, so when I wore my bikini everyone said "oh you look so good for just having a baby".  Lol.  That still makes me laugh.  Anyways, It is real bikini season now and I don't have that "just had a baby" excuse.  In all of my life I have never HAD to work to loose weight or try to get back to a certian weight.  I just never worried about it, I was always happy with my body (even thought it is pretty curvy). 
ANYWAYS, STOP THE BABBELING!
I personally think of my start weight at 184, NOT 180 as I put in my first post.  So when I got to 179, that was 5lbs down, and 174 is 10lbs down.

My goal is to get back to 160.  That is great for me. 
As of today (and for the past couple days), I am down to 174!  10 pounds down.  SO EXCITING!  I'm getting there, and it's mainly through diet.  But I NEED to kick up the work out.  I am realizing that I have to get toned.  After having Jack my tummy doesn't look that great anymore.  It's still fine, no stretch marks, but over all, it can be better.  I'm excited to think of the possibilities if I can keep going!
The only thing though is being tall, unless I loose large around (i.e. 20+lbs) no one can really notice the weight loss.
I can do it.  I still have the thing taped to my desk that says "It will hurt, it will take time, etc". 
So here are my HONEST and ACCURATE GOALS:
179: Get Nails Done (Check)
174: I'm okay with just getting excited about this 10 pound mark!
169: Buy New Jeans
164: Buy New Swim Suit
159: Spend $100 on new clothes!!
