Day 20 (Week 3): 10 TO 30 POUNDS BY November OR BUST

WOOWOWOOWOOWOW got to 255 just over a week from when I first threw the intention out!!!! Bouncy, bouncy bouncy! I know my weight loss should slow down soon, I don't want to be unhealthy but I AM eating so I think it should be fine. I think TOM may be sniffing around because I was HUNGRY literally all day yesterday. I exceeded my calorie limit by a little again, but the hunger beast was intense. I still stuck to my healthyish snacks and even bought beef jerky for the ride home as a healthier alternative (by the way NEVER by Wild Bills the saltiness is almost unbearable! I got them because there was only 1 carb per serving; none of the sugar a lot of the other jerky's have)

Old Man Scale won again....go figure!! BUT I am officially at 255, WooHoo! I think I will forgo deciding on a weigh-in day, just yet, as I seem to be losing often enough to record several times a week , for now.

Even with the last two day's hiccups in calories I am still doing fairly well with my food choices. Eating when I was hungry yesterday was a bit harder/more intense. BUT I am still very close on my caloric intake goal (between 1500 and 1800) and caloric deficit is still on track (I always want a deficit of 1800 or more).

5lbs to go to my floor goal! And soooo early in the challenge! Looks like a bouncy day again! Does bouncing burn calories?

Floor Goal: 250 (13lbs down from the beginning of the challenge, 5 from now.)
Mid-range: Weigh in at 245 for Thanksgiving with my folks, which is 18lbs from the beginning of the challenge and 10 from now
Ceiling goal: This may become my "real" goal instead of the ceiling!!! I cannot weight! to get there. Even if it's just by Christmas it will be a feat to be proud of! I find myself thinking about what I can do in one year of focus :)

1st things first. (had to cut 255 I am THERE weee!) Get thyself to 250 then onward!

255.0 lb Lost so far: 11.5 lb.    Still to go: 80.0 lb.    Diet followed reasonably well.
