Week 6 - Weigh in Wednesday
Hi everyone! I hope you all are having an amazing September!!! BTW-How is it September already?!?!? WOWSA! Time is seriously flying by!
Well, I hope everyone has had a great last week of weight loss?!?! I kind of maintained. I was a little updet at first and then I realized that it took a lot of will power to just maintain this week.
I had the long holiday weekend with my family at the lake. The weekend was filled with sweets and junk food and also really good comfort food that I love! My family had ribs one day, meatloaf the other day and then potato salad and burgers on the final day! See, lots of will power! I ate Lean Cuisine instead of all of that! I also avoided peanut butter chocolate crispy squares, cookies galore and ice cream birthday cake!
The only thing I allowed myself was a bite of rib, a bite of meatloaf and a bite of Mom's homemade potato salad and a few deviled eggs.
After all those days of willpower, I had a work celebration luncheon at Baywood on Tuesday and I ate strip steak filet and chocolate icebox cake! That was yesterday....HA! So, I am very glad it is not worse than it is on the scale!
I still worked out everyday either with barre or jogging and made sure to get my water.
Time for Weigh in Wednesday results!
I started on July 24, 2016 and have lost 21.4 pounds since then.
From last Wednesday to this Wednesday I have lost 0.2 pounds. See, a little shabby but I feel good about it anyway! At least it is not up!
I have been watching. measuring and recording everything I eat and making sure to get at least 10,000 steps a day and drink my water! This week I have also found the time to add in two or three classes of Pure Barre along with my running/jogging/walking training for the half marathon in October at Hershey.
I really need your help!!! Please, won't you join me and this check in to stay accountable!? Spread the word and let's all help keep each other motivated!!!
Here's to health!!! Happy rest of your week!
