As I am preparing for 2015 and setting my goals for the year, I also have to reflect on all the great things that happened in 2014. It seems like it’s too easy to remember the negative instead of the positive. There were lots of great things that happened this past year. I finally hit a new record with my weight loss and got my blog started back up again. Focusing on the positive from the past just helps remind me that I AM CAPABLE of achieving my goals when I set my mind to it! about Goals for 2015
My Progress
Transformation Tuesday – 5 Years in the Making
It has been 5 years since I started my journey. On September 15, 2009, I joined Weight Watchers for the last time. Of course, it was probably my 10th time joining, if not the 20th! I weighed in at 245.8 pounds, and I was squeezing into a size 20. As of September 16, 2014, I weighed in at 156.2, and I am wearing a size 6 or 8. I’m 10.4 pounds from my ultimate goal of losing 100 pounds, but I have to take a minute and reflect on how far I have come. about Transformation Tuesday – 5 Years in the Making
Progress Update
I’ve finally decided to get serious again and get to my goal of losing 100 pounds. I’ve been “trying” for the past 3 1/2 years, but I haven’t been as committed as I should have been to make it happen. Other things in life took priority and that’s okay, but I am finally ready to do it now! Here’s a reminder of where I am:
As of today, I need to lose 12.2 pounds. I don’t know why this has felt so daunting. At one point, my weight loss was over 90 pounds! Even with all my ups and downs, I managed to keep off 75 pounds the whole time. After losing that much weight, 12 should be easy. Riiiiiiiiiiiiiight. It’s never EASY, but it is simple. I know what to do. If I stick to my plan, I will get there. I’m GOING to get there!
December Photos
Here are annual photos through the years. Sorry about 2013…babies in the family means no shots of the wife I guess!

Again, not the best photo. The exciting thing for me is that I am back to my weight goal with WW AND I wearing my WW long sleeve shirt that is a little more fitted than I would normally wear!

This isn’t the best photo, but it’s all I have. These days I am only in pictures as a background or an accessory to our nieces. 😀 I’m still 12 pounds heavier than my goal weight at WW (and 25 pounds over my ultimate goal), but I’m working on it!
