Wednesday
I've updated my tracker. I'm so excited. I'm only 10 lbs away from my goal now! I've set a high goal though, that's the highest weight I'd be happy at. After I get to that goal, I'm just going to keep trying to eat healthy and exercise, and be happy when I feel like I'm at a healthy weight. I'm just excited that I'm getting so close.
Billy is now at 186. He's doing really good, too. I'm going to miss his stomache- it's all gone now!

Exercise: Usana Workout Video #3
BTW- we discovered that we get 32 flex points a week which is one thing we remember really liking about WW. So the days I went over earlier in the week, is not so bad considering the flex points, and we figured we still could splurge a little bit today and be OK. Although, I'm wondering if to loose weight you really shouldn't use any flex points... I'm not sure. But I think overall we're not doing too bad.... Billy wanted to go all out and get ice cream tonight, but one thing that stopped me from even wanting it was the fact that I knew we were going to post exactly what we eat and I didn't want anything that bad on my list. This really was a good idea of his. It is really helping me. All day I think- I want to be able to write that I exercised and/or that I ate good today. And I feel better (physically and mentally) once I actually do exercise and eat right.

Teanne
Basically all the same as Billy, although portions were slightly different and I didn't have a chance to grab a snack.
So my total points for the day is: 21
Exercise: Walk & Usana work out video- 30 min. of arms (lifting/toning), and Abs
*Ok, I just found out today that Billy had the right # for how many points he can have every day, but mine was off- which I was wondering about- it seemed really high. Anyway I should actually be staying between 20-25. So I did good today! Yay! Today is the first day that I've posted and felt good about it. It feels so good to know that we are concentrating so much on what we eat now, and really making an effort. That salad we had for lunch was delicous! I just loved it. I don't usually eat salad as much as I should, but I'm going to be doing better. Today, I just felt so good physically and I felt good about myself that we are starting to be healthier. ... So from now on I'll be staying between 20-25 points.

So, Everyday we will be posting our daily food journal (with total points) and what we did for exercise. We also have weight loss tickers at the top of this blog, to keep track of our weight loss. So eveyone please leave your comments and keep us motivated!
