Week 32
I lost 2.4 pounds for a total of 28.8 pounds in 32 weeks, an average of .90 a week. Man so close to 1 pound a week. Short term goal is to lose .4 pound to reach my May goal to lose 6 pounds in May. Other short term goal is to lose 1.2 pounds for a 30 pound total loss on WWs. I am down 31 pounds since I started trying to lose weight. Love, JoJo

Phew,
Just got done working out. I did 30 minutes straight jogging. I went 2.198 miles. I love my new heartrate monitor. I like to workout at my max heartrate. I did landscaping at the front entrance on Friday for 3 1/2 hours. Yesterday I was SOOOO sore. Today the first 20 seconds on the treadmill, I was thinking "on man, I am never going to make it 10 minutes forget about going 20-30-or 40 minutes" Now that I am done I feel so much better.
My weigh-in this week will be on Wednesday, there will be no meeting on Monday due to the Holiday. On my scale today, I am already down 1.2 pounds from last week. I am hoping to make it more like 2 pounds by Wednesday. Then I will have a short week before my next Monday weigh in.
I hope you all are doing well. We are crazy busy here. Swim team has started. Matthew is currently busy with his baseball tournament on top of swim team and he plays roller hockey on Wednesday nights. I will share some hockey pictures later. (((((hugs)))) Love you all, JOJO

Week 31:

I lost .4 for a total of 26.4 pounds in 31 weeks. I am going to try and lose 30 pounds by the end of May. I have 2 weigh-ins left. I know I can do it. I had a horrible week last week and yet I lost, go figure. This week, I need to try and get more workouts in. Last week was crazy here. Hope you all are doing well? love, JoJo

Dear all:

Check out the fundraiser that we are having for Emilija Lapas at SupportHer.Info. I just wanted to see if I could actually post this flier on our blog. I am learning how to do things very slowly. I am going to try to post our volleyball flier as well. Love, Ruth

Week 30 weigh-in. Today I lost 1.6 pounds for a total of 26 pound in 30 weeks. For an average of .86666 a week. I am still trying to get myself to the 1 pound a week mark : )

My next short-term goal is 30 pounds lost. Eight more weigh-ins before our July family reunion. Would love to be down another 10-14 pounds by then. Fourteen would have me at 40 pounds lost.

I hope you all are doing well? Love, JoJo

Workout IN. 45 minutes jogging. Not sure if it is wise to workout at 1030pm at night, but I really wanted to get a workout in today. I was down on my scale this morning from last week and even if the working out late screws up tomorrows weigh in, in the long run I will benefit from working out tonight.
So we shall see if the scale moves tomorrow or not. Either way I know I am doing what I need to do to get to my goal weight.

I hope all the Moms had a great Mother's Day. Love, JoJo
