Thursday Night Weigh - In

This week was a complete shocker! Seems my cousin inherited our grandmother's awesome cooking skills, and invited my husband and me over to her house for supper. Unfortunately, the cooking isn't salad and fruit...we're talking some true southern cooking. Cube steak, macaroni n cheese, rice and gravy, yeah, you get the idea. I showed as much restraint as humanly possible under such extreme pressure, but I was sure I had gained after all that. But alas, nope!! I lost 1.6 this week for a total of 23 pounds! Woohoo!! It is also "that week" and I always gain during "that week", so I was extra pleased =) I'm really begining to think that I can do this!

Weigh-In

First, I wanted to thank you guys for the incredibly sweet and inspiring comments you left me on my last posting. I was having a less than great day, and feeling sorry for myself, and you three gave me the boost I needed. Thanks!
So this week's weigh in was good! I lost 1.4 this week for a total of 21.2. I'm almost at my 10%, which was my first goal. I'm really excited about hitting that, and at getting my key chain from WW =)
Hope your weeks were good too!

Picture

Yeah, so I was hoping the almost-20-pounds-lost picture would look different. I can't even tell a difference in this picture, but I said I'd put one out here, so here we go. I wore the same thing I was wearing in that last picture. I'm going to go ahead and say I did that on purpose to show the difference in the way my clothes are fitting. Never would my picture just happen to be taken in the same clothes because I wear the same stuff all.the.time. Never. I absolutely LOVE shopping for huge clothes, so my closet is just overflowing with designer outfits. Wow, I feel like I should be doing a Not Me Monday journal entry. =) So without further ado, here we are, 19 pounds lighter:

To which I say, barf.

Slacker Me, and Weigh-In Thursday

Well, as with most things in my life, I've started slacking off on my weight-loss blog. Seems like I've missed a couple of weeks. I know I gained .6 one of those weeks, and lost 3.2 last week. This week, I only lost .6, which really surprised me. I was extra good this week ~ gym every day at lunch, actually cooked supper at home rather than eating out, etc. But I guess .6 is still a loss, and a step in the right direction. So this makes a total of 19 pounds I've lost since January. I think it's time for a new picture to go up. Maybe we'll be able to tell a difference??? There will be one posted tomorrow....gotta get somebody to take it =)
