Every Friday is Christmas!

Weight: 150.6
Hips: 39 1/4"
Waist: 30"

(lost 2 lbs and 1/4" off hips from starting point)

I put "Every Friday is Christmas" on a Post-It and looked at it every day to remind me that Fridays were my weigh in days and waking up in the morning during weight loss times were like Christmas. It was so awesome to get on the scale and actually see the number a pound or two lower than the previous week, so it was like Christmas to me, only better.

Here at work, some of my coworkers decided to do an inner office Biggest Loser, so we all weighed in about 2 weeks ago. Mind you I stuffed myself and made sure I had lots of water weight on before weigh in....shhh, don't tell anyone! I'd thought about putting sand in my pockets but figured that was outright cheating and I wouldn't have felt good if I had actually won with those tactics! So at my weigh in I was 156.6 at 37% bodyfat. Now, the body fat is a load of phoey (sp?) because a scale can't measure that accurately and there is no way IN HELL I am almost 40% bodyfat. Steve Wonder could even tell you thats a load of crap.

So at the end of week 3 I am down to 150.6, although that is my scale at home and I think the scale at work is 1 pound heavier, so about 5 lbs so far. Last week I had actually gained 2 lbs back so this week I lost it. If I can remain good and keep my cardio kick ass then I could easily drop 2 pounds a week for a total loss of about 10-11lbs by final weigh in. Now the downside is that everyone else will have 4 more days than I will because I am leaving town to go to my nieces graduation I have to weigh in early. But don't worry, it'll be first thing in the morning and I plan on using my kitchen scale to weigh the lightest outfit I have that won't leave me naked at weigh! haha!

All in all I am just excited that I am losing again and I'm really hoping that I can keep it off this time. Last November for the year end competition in Vegas, I was tiny and I felt amazing. I want that girl back because I felt youthful and sexy....even at 41.

Rock on!
