Measurements

It's been 6 months today that I started measuring myself. There is a huge difference. haha

The pictures basically speak for themselves.

Left: 9/17  Right: 10/17
There is a noticeable difference but I only lost .75


 Left: 4/17 Right: 10/17


Weigh in #23 & #24

I need to start this off with the best news of all. MY JEANS DON'T FIT ANYMORE. My favorite jeans no longer fit. They fit right out of the dryer but that's it. I went to a rich area where there is a resale shop and bought 2 pairs of name brand jeans. I love them. YAY!

I failed again at updating last week. It's hard to actually sit down at my computer to type out a simple blog post. I was going to do it on Tuesday, and thought about it, but since today is my measure and picture day I decided to wait until today to post. I have some time because E is in her high chair 'eating' puffs and I am eating breakfast.

October 8:
At Home: 136.7
Weight Watchers: 137.0
Weekly loss: -1.2
Total Weight Loss: -24.2

That is 15% of my body weight! I was really excited. The walking has really been paying off.

So that brings us to this week. I didn't track much. I ate whatever some days. I did not walk because it's been raining non-stop. It was just bad. I knew I had gained.

October 15:
At Home: 137.3
Weight Watchers: 137.6
Weekly gain: +.6
Total Weight Loss: -23.6

Of course I was not happy, but it was my own fault. I am struggling to find a good balance though because E is eating more solids some days. I feel like I should take away points but then some days I am starving. I talked to the WW lady and she said if you feel hungry, eat the 40 points. If you don't feel hungry and she has eaten more solids that day, eat less points. Just play with it.

Since it's been raining my friend suggested we do a workout video at her house. She keeps 1 to 2 babies and since I have E they could just play. I didn't feel much on the first day but the video we did yesterday was awesome. I went and bought it plus 2 small 3lb weights. I woke up this morning with sore abs and arms. YAY!
