Not doing so well...not ready to talk about it. I will be back soon...

Weigh In: Week 11

Weight: 200.8lbs
Week's Loss: 2.2lbs
Total Loss: 14.4lbs

Week at a glance:

Food: My CPST training went really well. I was able to stick to my healthy eating the entire time. I had a rough time late in the week though...fell off the wagon a couple of times and thought I was going to stay at a stand still weight wise this week. Obviously that didn't happen and I was seriously shocked when I stepped on the scale for my weigh-in.

Work Outs:
Monday-walk 2.5 miles
Tuesday-off
Wednesday-P90 sculpt, walk 2.5 miles
Thursday-P90 cardio
Friday-off
Saturday-walk 2.5 miles
Sunday-off

Again, shocked at the weight loss this week. Work outs were difficult...this week was busier than any other week in my memory bank. Maybe climbing in and out of cars and installing car seats counts for something.

I'm not expecting to lose any weight for this coming weigh in...in fact I will probably gain. I'm okay with that. Jeff and I are celebrating our 9th wedding anniversary this weekend. We will be on "vacation" all weekend...the kids will be at my in-laws and we will have the entire weekend to ourselves. I plan to act like I'm really on vacation...we haven't had a break from all 3 kids at one time since...well...it's never happened. Not for a whole night. We are very excited. I plan to eat. And sleep. And read. And sleep. And eat. I will still weigh in just to keep record...I'm keeping with my healthy diet and work outs until Friday night. I will be okay with whatever the scale says. Monday will be a new day.

Pay Off

A friend (that I don't see very often) told me that she can see a visible change from the weight loss. This is nice to hear.

I see changes. Small. But they are there. It's totally possible that she was just being nice because she knows that I am working SO HARD at it. Whatever. I'll take it!

Weigh In: Week 10

Weight: 203.0lbs
Week's Loss: 2.0lbs
Total Loss: 12.2lbs

Week at a glance:

Food: This week was a pretty easy week but I'm still struggling more than I was in the beginning. I'm having trouble figuring out what the difference is...maybe less excitement? Not sure. It's annoying though.

Work Outs:
Monday-off
Tuesday-P90 sculpt
Wednesday-walk 2.5 miles
Thursday-walk 2.5 miles
Friday-walk 2.5 miles
Saturday-walk 2.5 miles
Sunday-walk 2.5 miles

I pulled a muscle in my neck on Tuesday...that pretty much ruined my P90 work outs. I think it was due to pushing the double jogger against the wind while we were out walking. It still hurts. *sigh*

I am really nervous about this week. I will be in training (getting my Child Passenger Safety Tech licence) tomorrow through Saturday. I have to be up at 5:30 and won't be getting home until 6:30ish due to the commute. This leaves little time for work outs. AND the food will be provided...both breakfast and lunch. I'm planning on packing my own food. I will probably look like a freak but I can't worry about that right now. Wish me luck!

***I have decided to stop posting pictures every week...it's kind of redundant. I will start doing pics at 4 week intervals...starting with week 12.***

Weigh In: Week 9

Weight: 205.0lbs
Week's Loss: .8lbs
Total Loss: 10.2lbs




Week at a glance:

Food: My weight loss was so low this week because of a "cheat" late in the week...I think it was Saturday night. It was calculated, thought about, talked about, and planned. The decision was based on the fact that this is not a diet...it's a lifestyle change. And sometimes it's okay to eat "bad" food. It actually felt good. There was no guilt afterwards and I didn't struggle with my ability to jump back to eating healthy...both are new to me.


Work Outs:
Monday-walk 1.5 miles
Tuesday-P90 sculpt, walk 2.5 miles
Wednesday-P90 cardio
Thursday-P90 sculpt, walk 2.5 miles
Friday-walk 2.5 miles
Saturday-walk .75 miles
Sunday-P90 cardio, walk 1.5 miles

I do get discouraged sometimes about how slow this process is but I have to remind myself that this time next year I will be a hot momma! It took me YEARS to put this weight on...it's not going to come off in one day. And I keep hearing that slow weight loss has better long term results...anyone know more about this?

It's coming!

I will post my weigh in results tonight. I have been feeling under the weather and spent the ENTIRE evening in Care Now last night and then came home and went straight to bed. Sorry I'm late!
