I have changed my goal

I originally had my goal as 150 lbs but I am thinking that I would like to go for a little more. I am starting a competition with my Dad and brother Ben to hopefully get to our goal weights by the end of this year. The winner gets a weekend with their spouse in San Francisco. I want that. I also want something else but it wont come in the form of a vacation get away or a new wardrobe (although that would be nice), mine and Jesús' 10 year reunions are this year. His is in October and so that is my goal date. I want to look good for mine too but mostly I want him to have a hot wife on his arm. My new goal is to get to 140. I can do it, I've gotten this far. That means I have 36 lbs to go. There is plenty of time I just have to take every minute to remember what I want most. My weakness? Macaroni and cheese. When I ever I make it for the kids I have to taste it to make sure its stirred enough and then again to see if its too hot. Whatever is left after they are done, I finish it off, even when I have already had my lunch. I told my self today that I would not even taste it. I found myself scarfing it down out of habit! I have to stop. I have to. I worked out yesterday, and the kids just went down for a nap so I might go try and get in a workout now. That will make two days in a row. I will picture myself in a beautiful J Crew dress that I want badly and hopefully that will inspire me.

lightest ever

I weighed myself today just to see and I am now at 176. That is the lightest I have weighed in probably 6 years. I had a couple of days when I went running but it has basically been eating better. Hopefully I can speed up this process.
