20 lbs down! 6 Week update!

 So I am almost 6 weeks in to my Herbalife Challange! Its bitter sweet... I have lost 20 lbs and 13 inches. My hubs has lost 17 lbs and I need to measure because I know hes lost a ton of inches too!!!
 Im wearing jeans I haven't been able to wear since stupid effexor made me gain 25-30 lbs at the end of last year!  However Im about 10 lbs off from my goal.  I know that 20 is awesome but I also know what Im capable of and how much I have slacked over the last few weeks! For example.. I lost 14 lbs the first 2 weeks and only 6 in the last 4 weeks!  My goal was been 5 lbs a week.  Its frustrating because I know I havent worked out enough and had way to many cheats! IE today.. I had an Oreo and some chips! Danget! And Ive had several Diet Dr Peppers! BOOOO  So time to make the last 2 weeks as good and even better than the first 2 weeks!
Herbalife isnt an easy fix! Its great nutrition and its hard work.  Its not a miracle pill as many people want to think.  Its commitment to a plan and following through.
The days I eat the protein I need which is 144 right now and all the water I need which is like more than a freakin gallon - when I stick to the plan and get in all that I need I generally lose 1 lb per day.  Its so simple yet days like today I always let stress win!  I gobbled down that cookie like I had been lost at sea with out food for a month.  Sickening! I know I've posted this before but Its seriously oh so true!
Tomorrow is a new day!  2 weeks to go and I want to win that $585 and I want Ben to win $351 (1st and 2nd place!)  We got this!  Were gonna work our booties off and actually stick to the plan with out fail until the end of this 2 weeks!  I cant wait!!!

  2. 20 pounds is awesome!!! I appreciate that you share the good and the bad struggle with weight loss. I know I need to drink more water but I find it hard to always remember.

  3. That's awesome!! I am SO excited for you. Remember that we always tend to lose the most weight in the beginning ~ so don't get discouraged.
    Even if you have been slacking a little. 20 pounds is still a ton of weight.
    I am smiling from ear to ear!!
