I broke 140

For years now I've wanted to lose a bit of weight. Wendy and I both realize that 133 is probably ideal for us (although we'd like to be a few pounds under that).

But for the last couple of years I've been above 140. Lately I'd been holding pretty steady at 144 after reading "You on a Diet", which was down from a high of 149 before that.

But finally I decided that even eating more healthy wasn't going to necessarily get me to my goal. I'd been at 144 for months even though I was eating well and exercising for about 45 minutes 3-4 days a week.

So I went back on Weight Watchers. This was in addition to continuing to eat more healthy, which I learned from "You on a Diet" and exercising. One additional thing I did, which some people might not agree with, is that I've been taking two metabolife pills every day (even though the bottle says to take six), one at 10 am and another at about 4pm. The reason I'm doing this is because last time I was on weight watchers I was tired all the time and it was horrible. But
by taking these I have more energy and hunger control.

So my good news is that I'm below 140, in fact I'm at 138.5. Now I just have to keep going till I reach my goal and find a way to stay there. I just bought a new pair of running shoes which motivated me to run twice this week.

We're going on vacation from June 29th to July 16th. I really hope that I can maintain during that time. Hopefully I've learned enough about eating healthy that it won't be a problem. So wish me continued success!
