It's time for an update
I didn't realize that it had been almost 2 months since I last updated, but time has flown. Work has been crazy, leaving little time for real life. Given that we're back to real food, the moments of real life have been gobbled up by cooking, cleaning, grocery shopping, and even a little time with friends ( Read more... ) -
Weigh-in Week 23
It's been a while since I posted last, but our weight loss continues to go well. We started eating 1 meal a day on New Year's day that consisted of 2 oz lean meat, 1/2 c cooked veggies and 1 piece of fruit. This week we got to add an additional serving of veggies (which has really just meant a small salad before dinner every night). Next week lunch ( Read more... ) -
So sad...
Apparently all those math courses at Tech just didn't cut it. This whole time, I've been counting week 1 as the first week on the diet, but that wasn't the first week of "product" (it was just the 1200 calorie regular-food portion). So, according to Emory, we just finished week 19 instead of week 20. Therefore, we aren't actually ready to start ( Read more... ) -

Weigh-in Week 18
I hope that everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving. Mark and I drank our shakes and watched my dad eat a yummy-looking dinner from the Kroger Deli. I hate that we didn't cook for him, but we just couldn't do it. It certainly looked better than what we were eating (well, drinking ( Read more... ) -
Weigh-in Week 16
...ooo050ooo... <-- This is my version of the 50 pound hump, which I am finally over!
I lost 2 lbs last week for a total of 51. I never thought I would be able to say that I had lost 50 pounds, so it feels pretty good. Also, for those of you that knew I battled with sleep apnea for the past few years, I'm happy to say that I no longer have to sleep ( Read more... ) -
Weigh-in Week 15
Rolling... rolling... rolling... our weight loss keeps on rolling....
Last week turned out to be pretty great. I did some yoga, played some tennis, and lost 4.5 lbs! Mark was not so active, and only lost 3.5 lbs. It looks like the doctor's "Tortoise and the Hare" theory is turning out to be true!
I've now lost a total of 49 lbs, and will most ( Read more... ) -
Weigh-in Week 14
I know I'm a slacker for not posting last week, but I only lost 1 lb and just wasn't feeling it. However, this week was much better so I'm happy to share with the world! I'm officially down 4 pant sizes, and had to buy new pants this weekend. Mark is down 12 inches (OMG!) in his pants size, so he also definitely needed new pants. We don't want him ( Read more... ) -
Mmmmnt.
I have been coveting these in the Nordstrom shoe department for quite some time now (the picture just doesn't do them justice). Any of my close friends know that I am a complete shoe whore, and these just make me soooo happy. At lunch I went to the Nordstrom semi-annual shoe sale, and they were on clearance. They are mine! Watch out world, I have ( Read more... ) -
Weigh-in Week 12
Not exercising worked last week, but not this one. Only 2 lbs lost this week, but still 2 lbs closer to my goal. Exercise routine begins again. Mark lost 4.5 lbs for a total of 70.5. I lost 2 lbs for a total of 40. WooHoo for the 70 and 40 marks!
