Getting Started


Yesterday was Day 1. It felt really good and manageable, actually. I was able to accomplish everything. However, I think I marked off the Rosary and actually didn't do it. I usually pray the rosary immediately after Mass, but yesterday I needed to get home more quickly and I intended to pray the rosary right after I unloaded the car, but I don't think I did. But everything else I did:


Daily Mass

Exercise was a hike and a walk on my treadmill using iFit

Morning and evening devotions

Read 10 Minutes

Drank 96 ounces of water

Read the Bible

Tracked my calories

No sugar


Day 2


Today so things are going well and I am on track for meeting all my goals again. The no-sugar rule is probably the toughest right now. In the afternoon, there is nothing that sounds better than an iced coffee and a cookie. But I shall resist. Today's exercise was tough. First, I did a hike that was tough and then I did a really tough prenatal workout for my shoulders from Glow Body PT. My shoulders are already sore so tomorrow they will be really feeling it.


Here's the embarrassing stuff though. I took my starting photos today. I decided that I wasn't going to do my makeup or hair and get in a cute outfit. Maybe I should have. They are embarrassing though. I am going to post them so that hopefully in 1000 days I will be a totally different and better person. I don't weigh myself at home right now while I am pregnant, but I went to the doctor's office last week and clocked in at 200 lbs exactly. Which is terrifying. It's about the same that I weighed at the end of my second pregnancy with my now 1.25-year-old daughter, Lizzie. I have several goals for weight loss. The first is that I would like to wear dresses and skirts without having to wear shorts underneath. ( I think this will happen around 150 lbs). Next, I would like to be below 140, and then my ultimate goal is to be between 122 and 128 lbs.
