So, overall not a bad week at all. I did good with eating (not great, but good!). And working out, I really pushed myself quite a bit...so, I really think eventually those last three pounds will go, I think I (I hope at least) am just building muscle now and getting stronger, so it isn't melting off like it was. And honestly I am totally fine where I am. I wouldn't mind being able to say I lost 20lbs. b/c it sounds great, but I am content! I just need to keep the motivation to work out and I will be fine! :o) That's about it! I have two new workout videos that I will be using frequently...I really like the Jillian Michaels one...it is a butt kicker!!!

I will get the totals later on today! I worked out 6 days and really felt it after pilates on Saturday! I was glad not to work out Sunday for sure! I also treated myself last night to a piece of chocolate cake and ice cream! Yummy! I will be good all week this week! That is my goal. I want to lose the last 3 lbs. before Easter! :o) That is doable I think!

I guess the measurements I gained last week, I lost again this week. I guess that is good? I had a rough week of eating. I am back on track now. I want to hit my new goal by Easter. That is about 1.5 lbs. or less to lose each week until then. So, I think I can do it! I will just keep up the will power and keep working out!!!!!!

No major changes...that's okay! It was a pretty big week of splurging! I will be okay if I don't lose much more really (in inches)...I just want to tone and get stronger! I will hopefully get my workouts in this week. They may be happening in the evening, not sure. This is Jett's first full week, so I need to be on my toes for the babies! I can always do quick stuff upstairs while they are sleeping though. Or even take Averie down with me during the boys' naps...we'll see!

I hope to lose those last two pounds by Easter! That is my goal! I imagine things will stop or slow down even more. I am not really sure. I can't imagine the scale saying anything in the 130's although that would be wonderful! :o) I haven't decided if I want to change my goal yet or not. I am going to wait and see if I can maintain 142 this week and go from there. :o) I hope all your weekends are going well!

Not a bad week! I ended up working out 6 days...which felt good to do! I have a sinus headache this morning. Hopefully it goes away before I want to work out later. It probably will! Nothing much else going on. A little more progress on the floors..more to come!!!


Adios plaid carpet!!!

I am so happy with everything so far! I just wish the arm would go down. Well, I don't really even care about that, I just want to tone my arm so it isn't flapping in the wind this spring and summer in sleeveless shirts when I wave. I will have to come up with some better exercises for my arms. I'll work on that this week! :o) Other than that, I am pleased. I need to workout hard today. Monday is always the hardest day especially if I haven't worked out over the weekend. I wanted to Saturday and Sunday but just couldn't and didn't have the time! Oh well...

Weekly Measurements:
Weight: 148 (down .5)
Upper Arm: 12.5 (no change)
Chest: 38.75 (down .25)
Waist: 30.5 (no change this week)
Hips: 40 (down .5 this week- 2 total)
Thigh: 23.75 (down .75 total)

So, everything looks good to me. I actually measured myself this time, so I will have to see if I can remember from week to week. The thigh surprised me, I measured it a couple of times to make sure I was right...I measured the largest part and it was still down, so I guess finally the bike is working for those legs! I haven't done any other leg exercises yet...I may eventually. So, anyways, I am happy with the measurements!

Yesterday I weighed myself in the morning (as I do every morning) and I was down to 147.5. I have never been that weight on my scale ever (I've had the scale for almost 4 years)! So, that was exciting! And I did do pretty bad with eating dinner last night. I haven't eaten so much that I was stuffed in a month so I felt pretty uncomfortable all night. Then sometime in the middle of the night I was in the bathroom (not to gross you all out) not doing so well. But I'm okay now! I guess my system isn't used to the overeating anymore. Which is great! I won't be over eating like that for a while!

MEASUREMENTS

Weekly Measurements:
Weight: 148.5
Upper Arm: 12.5 (no change)
Chest: 39 (no change)
Waist: 30.5 (down 1.5")
Hips: 40.5 (down 1.5"
Thigh: 24.75 (up .25")

So, I am not sure if these are really accurate...my husband measured me both times, but said he couldn't remember how tight he pulled the tape each time and where he put the tape each time...so, I think I'll start over and do it myself later on, or tomorrow morning. You kinda have to put the tape in the same spot to get an accurate reading... :o) Good effort on his part, thanks for trying honey! At least the weight is down again! Yippie!
