Weigh In

So, once again my weigh in really was nill.
I'm not sure how I feel about it.
I really am focusing on working out right now, and I find it somewhat difficult to be REALLY on top of what I'm eating when I'm working out a lot.
I finally got back onto my bike (note, P is 3, and I haven't biked since she was born and her pregnancy ruined my pelvis) on Saturday.  I'm hoping to do a lot more of that, I think it's great for my body and works JUST what needs to be worked on me.
Anyway, that's where I am at.  The pounds are circling lower and lower, but it's really slow and gradual, not what I'd hoped for, but time is on my side. :)

My Own Gift

My gift to myself was to not weigh in on Sunday OR Monday.  My birthday was on Saturday and I didn't want to have the weight of a weigh-in taunting me.

So I didn't.

I went to a shower on Sat with delicious food, and then we went to the melting pot and then it was home for cake.  And somehow I needed some cheese fries before bed.

Hey, it's my birthday. :)

I did better yesterday, but I knew the news wouldn't be great.

SO, I got up and did a transfirmer workout this morning.  This one has a ridiculous segment where you do step ups and lunge backs from the entire step (which is about knee height) for like 5 full minutes.  I wanted to scream at them.  Ok, I may HAVE screamed at them.  My apologies. :)

My weight got down to 170.6 last week, so that's good news.  I didn't get to a 16x number, but life goes on and I can still keep losing weight.

I feel like I'm really on top of the whole working out thing, but as always it's the food that's catching me up.  BUT, I'll eat when I'm hungry, and stop when I am full. :)

Stupid Scale

I weigh in on Monday mornings.  I'm stupid, call it like you see it - -but I figure it's a good day to start the week off right, right?

I'm up THREE pounds from yesterday.

Darn you mothers day and your lure of my infinite wisdom and no cleaning.

Oh well, I entered my weight in my phone app and I got the day started with an insane Firm workout (I literally started to lose hearing about 3/4 of the way into the "Explosive Power moves" workout).  I'm feeling good and I know I can do this.

My goal this week is to be under 170.  I keep tickling around it 170.2 several times but I just want tot see 16x on my scale.  End of story.  I know, don't get all about numbers but it's a measurable thing, and I like it... and I want to be it.

Sad news, my birthday is this next weekend, but I can do it.  Hopefully I get to that 16x number before Friday.  Right?

How was your week?

Up.

And, not the movie up. :(

But I sojourn on.  I am up today probably mostly because of Fast Sunday yesterday.  I ate more later in the day then I usually do, and it's hard to listen to your body when you're famished.

If you go Saturday to Saturday I was down 1.2 pounds, so whatever.  Either way I think I'm on the right track.

I did another firm workout this morning.  I think my ultimate goal is 3 cardio/weights workouts and one yoga workout, most likely with P later in the day.  BUT, I did notice that I go through today's workout a lot better then I'd done it in the past.  The purple firm videos have these cardio bursts that are HARD.  I think last time I hda to breathe through one of them, but this time I did full steam ahead.

Yay me!

I did my measuring today.  It made me realize that I really need to get on this wagon, and fast.

I went to Goodwill on SAturday (50% off day) and I SERIOUSLY need some capris.  NONE of the size 12's fit me.  now, it's goodwill and you can only do so much but I was pretty sad coming out with size 14 pants.  BUT, it's more important to not have skin tight pants here in the desert, then to have the pride of size 12's.  It did renew my spirit to get this weight DOWN though.

It will happen.

I've got nothing but time. :)  How'd you do this week?
