Friday check in 10/28/11

Hi!

It is Friday so we need to see how I did. I was really in gear this week. Walking 6 miles one day, swimming two hours another. Yeah.

Then Thursday hit. I stepped on that scale. I should not have. It said I was at 242. No change at all from last week. none. It made me sad. I ate like crap yesterday.

This morning I step back on the scale for my weigh in. 239.

So from my start I am down 5 whole pounds! This is nice. I am back where I was before my two weeks of icky.

So yeah.

I have a goal to be 20lb lighter by Thanksgiving. Let's see if I get there.

Good Friday morning!

So this week I was again bad! I totally only worked out once this week. Life was getting int he way and that is a horrible excuse. I need to get myself back into gear.

So I have weighed in one pound heavier so am now at 242. My waist has not changed. 42 inches. But my hips got one inch smaller and is now at 50.

So nothing to really cry over. but if I want to get to my goals then I need to put in the effort. I want to be 20lb lighter by Thanksgiving. That goal is looking unobtainable right at the moment. I also want to be 40 lb lighter by new years.

Any encouragement will be appreciated.

It is that time again.

I had been really bad about my eating habits and exercise habits this week. I had spent basically the entire week running errands and completely busy. Excuses right?

I made my bed and I have to sleep in it too. I gained 2lb this week. Went from 239 to 241. BUT I lost another inch off my waist! YAY. 41 inch waist measurement and 51 inch hip measurement.

I also went in to a bra shop to get myself fitted. things have been changing so much and my old bras were no longer even mildly comfortable.

I was wearing a 44G. Well they put me in a 40H. What a dramatic difference! They were so comfortable and the middle section right between the two cups. It layed flat. It has NEVER done that before. I could not be happier.

Ladies even if you think you are wearing the correct bra size. Go get fitted. You may be surprised.

Friday check in 10/7/11

hey, It is Friday.

So I weighed myself shortly after getting up. I was at 241. ick. I weighed myself a few minutes ago and I was back at 240. Still ick.

I am right were I was last week. My waist measurements and hip measurements are the same. I know things have been a little crazy this week. but I still managed to make it to the gym everyday. I know I was exercising less on the non-swimming days. I have been tired.

This last week was filled with me getting up early and taking kids to dr appts. Three boys leads to a busy life. I take them all on separate days so that I don't feel overwhelmed and I can give them my full attention.

Excuses right?

I will just have to work harder next week. I will get better. I will lose by next week.

I am still feeling down about this and I guess the only thing that will make me feel better is to go exercise.

Friday weigh in.

I have decided I will weigh in every Friday.

I have lost a pound from last week. This mean I have lost a total of 4 pounds in two weeks.

I went from a 47 inch waist measurement to a 43.
I went from a 54 inch Hip measurement to a 51.

I am proud of my progress.

I also joined a gym yesterday. I foresee a lot more weight loss ahead!
