Well today was WI. And as my title says I'M DOWN.....2.4LBS!!! Amen for small victories! I will definately take it! I'm so happy I lost, I could not take another gain like last week. Again my leader was like "you're doing amazing! You're losing weight so fast" and I'm thinking "yea right, it's not fast enough." But I am happy about that! That brings my weightloss to 8.2lbs in 3 weeks. 2.2lbs more than I expected so I'm just fine with that. I'm only 8lbs from ONEderland. I know I'm going to make it!
I have come up with a work out plan. Tuesday and Saturday will be my off days unless something comes up. So Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday & Sunday will be workout days. I will switch between interval training and X-Mode on the Elliptical every other day. Doing abs every day and increasing by 50 every week. I will cool off doing 5-10 minutes on the bike. I'm still not brave enough to do weight training but I will get there.
Changes I plan to make to keep losing weight:
Limit my 100 cal snacks to 1 a day (this is going to be very hard, as it is convenient for my lifestyle)
Try a new fruit and veggie every week
Find GOOD running shoes
incorporate my "fun" work out during the week
Continue eating my snacks during the day
Continue drinking over 64oz of water and having NO soda
After my meeting I came home and am still babysitting for a friend of mine. I am babysitting a 2 month old babygirl named Jazilyn. She is soo very precious. She's got chunky legs and chubby cheeks, she's just a doll. But OMG, she is a lot of work. How do you mommies do it. Taking care of her I've forgotten to eat my snacks and get anything else done. I love babies but I definately won't be having any of my own for a looong while!
I have a summary and interpretation due in the next two days, I better get on that!! I have a feeling I'll be spending a lot of time in the library this semester . Pray for me.
A lot of names on my friend's list has cakes by them, so many January babies. HAPPY BIRTHDAY to you all! Hope you enjoyed your pedi Endurer.
Ok, Im off to finish watching my Tuesday night shows.
Ciao bellas.

congratulations on your weight loss, girl you are doing the dern thing! i WISH i was close to onederland but oh well....
Congrats on the weight loss! I knew oyu would be fine. Keep doing what your are doing because its working. I wrote a copmment in your lst post about some good running shoes. I'm not usre if you had a chance to read it yet. ANyhow you doing abs too! I plan on increasing mine tow 200 next month because 100 a day is not working or I'm too inpatient!
Don't be afraid of weight training, it will be your friend in the end! They burn the most calories ( especially your larger muscles, and they burn calories even when your not exercising, which I think is great. Anyhow I think you did great on you weight loss! Hav a good one!
Good job on the loss! I'm so excited for you and your journey ton ONEderland! I was 225 my freshman year of college and remeber first tipping the scales at 199. I called my mom screaming. I couldn't believe I was actually under 200! In a few more weeks, you will be there too. I will be sure to check in on your progress. Good luck!
Wow - you must have been THRILLED to see that number! Congrats!
As for the babies, they look so sweet and easy to care for when they're sleeping, don't they? Sometimes I wonder where I got the energy back when my kids were that age. They grow INCREDIBLY fast - every tear and drop of sweat were worth it!
