My Thoughts:
In-laws stayed for a while and it was too late to go to the gym and get our workout in. Plan on doing upper and extra cardio on Sunday. I DREAD weighing in tomorrow! I wouldn't be surprised if I weigh in at 0 lbs lost or maybe even a gain. I feel horrible about how I've eaten the last few days. I've got to get back on track. Hopefully the scale will be a wake up call tomorrow.

Supposed to work out tonight, but have a bunch of other things to do, too, so we'll see if we get to it. Have to clean house, take apart weight bench, hang tapestry, and pack up a few more moo moos to ship out. Plus I'm sure a couple other things.

Yes, I ate the whole damn pizza. I think PMS has just hit me hard. Hopefully I can have a little more control tomorrow at Red Lobster. Don't count on those 2 pounds still being off come weigh in on Sunday! Damn!

My Thoughts:
Apparently my bad lunch yesterday didn't affect me too much b/c I was still at 142 this morning. Yay! However, I'm eating lunch out again today (Mexican) and with the mocha this morning, I think I'm putting those 2 lbs to the test. I want them to stay off or even get another 1-2 to join them by Sunday. hee hee

Haven't been doing very great on water. Working on getting at least 4 in per day. That's 2 at work and 2 in the evening. Doable, but still needs work.

Pretty good workout tonight. Had to wait a while on the hip machines b/c 2 girls were chatting away about 30 yr. old ladies who don't shave their nether regions. Apparently they were not bright enough to work out and talk at the same time. For some reason the glute machine seems to be much harder. Not sure if it's b/c I'm focusing more on what I am doing or what. I'm not decreasing the weight though.

My Thoughts:
So I try to weigh myself on Wednesdays to give me an idea of how I'm doing for the week. I was so thrilled this morning to see that I've lost 2 lbs since Sunday. Can you believe it? Now lets hope I can keep it off til Sunday. This might be a little tough as my in-laws are coming over on Saturday and we are having a birthday lunch. I'll try to eat as healthy as possible though. I believe we are going to Red Lobster.

Did not have a good morning at work so I begged Eric to take me to lunch so I could vent! Thankfully he obliged! We had already planned on going to Puccini's tonight for dinner for our normal Wednesday night out, but decided it would be cheaper for lunch. Probably not the best choice, but not the worst either and I only ate 1/2!

Today was an optional Cardio today. Planned on going to the gym or getting horizontal cardio in. Unfortunately I realized today was also the last day of bidding for my ebay stuff, so I spent a couple hours on the computer doing stuff with that.

I had a goal to weigh 140 today. I made it to 144, which in my opinion, is still a big success.

Woohoo! Good lunch today!

Had a pretty good weight. Adjusted a couple of the weights on my upper body b/c I think I was trying to do too much and I wasn't doing it right. Felt much better last night. Also decided to do concentration curls instead of standing and doing curls so I could do more "concentrating". Seems to be going pretty well now. I do all upper body on free weights now. We are also very excited b/c people at the gym are drastically breaking their resolutions so it is not so busy on the cardio stuff now. B/c of that we are going to try to do cardio 4-5 times a week in the evening. I know we can do it. We originally planned to do it at 5 am, but let's be honest... It's so much easier to sleep another hour than get up and do cardio. And the real reason we were doing it in the AM is b/c it was so busy at night and it looks like that isn't a problem as much now. Finally!

Really down about my SLOW weight loss. I know I've lost 6 pounds total, but I'm do not see it (except on the scale) or feel it in my clothes. It is sorta frustrating. I guess I'll take what I can get. If it's only .5-1 pound a week, that's something right? Obviously I will not meet or exceed my original goal of weighing 140 by Mar 1 or my second goal of 142 by March 1, but I'm still happy I did lose some weight and feel a little better and will keep at it for sure!

Also, I have been doing measurements on lower since early January, which I'll post later, but also decided to do measurements on my whole body, which I'll also post. Maybe if I can see those lossed pounds in measurements I'll feel a little better. Also as of tomorrow Monday, we are changing my alarm clock to get up EVERY day M-F at 5 am and go do 30 minutes of cardio at the gym. This week I better see more than just .5-1 pound! If it goes well, we'll keep it up. Keep your fingers crossed!

It was too nice to go to gym today so we did some major cleaning around the house (I even worked up a sweat) and picked up tons of sticks in the back yard! Overall it really was a good workout!
