Measurements

Not excited about these measurements. Here goes:
Neck: 16 Hip: 42
Arm: 14 Thigh: 23
Bust: 46 Calf: 15.25
Waist:40.5 Ankle: 8.75
Gut: 43.5
I gained 2.25 total inches. I am 249.5 - 247.25 = 2.25 gained. Trying to look at the positive, I lost inches on my neck, hip, and ankle. I stayed the same on my waist, thigh, and calf. I gained in my arm, bust, and gut.

Last week's weight

As I was checking my posts, I realized that I did not record last weeks weight of 206.5. I was excited to have lost 2 more pounds but knew I wouldn't be able to do measurements because we were leaving for Columbus. So, yeah, back up to 208. I'll do measurements tomorrow anyway, just to keep an eye on things.

Gained!

Official weigh in at school: 208. I knew it was going to be bad. Two Wendy's meals, birthday cake, deserts at school, and not enough exercise. Well, I'm not giving up, just going to get a good nights sleep and start over fresh tomorrow. The weight didn't come on overnight and I can't expect it to disappear overnight either. Just hoping for slow, steady weight loss results.

Crappy week

This week has been horrible for my diet efforts. Starting with Columbus and eating at Wendy's, not getting exercise. Did OK on Mon/Tues (no school). But Wednesday and today I've eaten desserts provided at Parent Teacher conferences, I did ride my bike 40 minutes last night but tonight I am just too tired. To sum up, 4 days of bad eating and 3 days of exercise. I am dreading tomorrow's weigh in.

Pics

Ok, so I'm still huge but I feel great. I had Ainsley take some pictures of me in the same shirt as the September pic. I want to document these changes. I am going to lose all this weight. I've decided my goal weight is 140. In these pics I had just finished riding my exercise bike for 30 minutes and took a shower.

Crash and burn

Went to C-bus to see Coral and ate at Wendy's twice. French fries, frosty, and double stacks. Then tonight was my Mom's birthday party and I figured what the hay, diet's already blown, so I ate cake too. Have not exercised Saturday or today. This is a minor set back and I will do better tomorrow.

Step Aerobics: I figured it out

The Kathy smith video I want is called Step Workout. I had been doing the Great Buns and Thighs workout. I just bought the dvd of the step workout on Ebay and hope it will arrive soon. This workout is more aerobic and longer than Buns/Thighs but also has a toning segment. Ate salad and mesquite chicken for lunch, and my scales are saying I weigh about 203. So can't wait for Friday's weigh in. tomorrow Mom, Vicky, and I are going for pedi's and then to Ulta for a beauty haul. Looking forward to girl time but wonder when I can fit exercise in tomorrow.
