Yikes, I got behind on my updates!
The past couple of weeks have flown by....I've been super busy at school and my workouts and diet have suffered a little bit. I've gotten back on track in the past few days though, and after my weigh-in today, I am still on the downward.
Weight Loss/Gain: In the past 2 weeks, only about a pound and a half....but that wasn't a big surprise. I'm still counting it as a success! Total weight loss is now at just under 9 pounds. However, I'm trying to obsess less about the number on the scale, and enjoy the feeling of feeling stronger and healthier.
Best Part of this Week: Pulled out some of my size 10 pants this week. That's an accomplishment for me! I was squeezing into my 12's when I started....now not ALL of my 10's fit yet (why is sizing so weird?), but I'm on my way! Mornings have been going more smoothly, as I am not fighting zippers or changing outfits 4 times because I feel that I look fat. Just fitting into my clothes better makes me feel so much better.
Worst Part of this Week: I had to also drag out my smaller bras this week - boo! Leave it to me to lose weight in my boobs, when there isn't even much there to begin with!
Exercise: Treadmill, treadmill, treadmill. Getting burned out on that, so I did some outside runs in the evening this week. Thinking of getting a workout video, but there are so many out there that I wouldn't even know where to start. Suggestions?
Goals for next week: Lose more than one pound!!
Inspiration...this kinda sums it all up:
The one about exercising with a friend? My sis and I have been walking/jogging together (such a motivator!), and she told me that at a women's conference she heard an interesting statistic: If your best friend is overweight, you are 57% more likely to be overweight as well. Jenn - that is speaking to us!! We can do it! :)
