8th Weigh In!

I lost -.8 this week.

That's 7.8 lbs in 8 weeks. 

I am happy with this result because I did not have a perfect week:

- I had 3 workouts instead of 4 because of a snow day.

- I ate takeout for the first time in 2 months on Sat night. It was glorious. It was chicken and cheese quesedilla with black beans and rice. If I ate half I would have been ok but I took it all down like a rabid wolverine. I forgot to breathe. However, I did not have chips and guacamole and a margarita with it which helps. I also didn't eat dessert which is hard for me.

- I didn't log my food Sat or Sun for the first time in 2 months. Half reason is I was depressed I wasn't on vacation and getting a break from this house after 2 months of famine, the other half is I think I needed a break from logging every morsel. However, I got right back on the wagon Monday so that's ok.

So given all these transgressions I am happy to have a loss.

My clothes are more comfortable but I am getting tired of a lot of my go to foods so I need to think about better lunch ideas before I burn out on egg whites.

I may be broke and housebound and tubby but I am less tubby than I was 2 months ago and I want to keep going!!!!

Who's with me???

Tubsters unite!!!!!!

BACK

Notice on the back photos that at 177.2 there us a tiny gap above knees where you can see white table through legs which did not happen at 185. Yes that is grasping at straws but it keeps me going!!!

7th Weigh In RESULTS!

I  lost 1 pound this week

That is 7 lbs in 7 weeks. 

Still no pedicure in sight.

29 weeks until my 40th Birthday. If I keep on track at 1 lb per week then I will have lost 36 lbs. Since 30 is my goal I have left myself a 6lb wiggle room. 

KEEPING MY EYE ON THE PRIZE.

I need to stay focused on how badly I want this. So, I am sharing with you some reasons why I want to lose weight:

BACK:

178 lbs

I think I see improvements in the side view but let's face it, it's only 7 lbs. I expect to see more visual changes by about 15 lbs. I still look like Alfred Hitchcock. And there is a very creepy nipple in the sports bra situation that I should be ashamed of, but apparently don't care. 

Here's to another week of hard fought weight loss. This is not easy!!!!!!!!

My jeans DO feel better today. Even if they are elastic waist and could qualify as "pajama jeans". 

Keep at it tubsters!
