Absent

The last two weeks have been very bad weight wise- and this week's weigh-in doesn't show that it will look any better. I'll write again when there's good news to report!

A Lot Late

Last week- 191! That was great.

Then.....this week was 194.7! The good news is that my muscle was back up with the weight, so that's not so bad. Our school will be extending our biggest loser game through May, so I have a little more time.

A Little Late

Well, it took me a while to get to this- blame Chuck. (He'll tell you he's to blame for everything anyway!) We need a new keyboard. I hate typing on this one since one shift key doesn't work and half of the keys don't have the letters on them!
My numbers miraculously are exactly the same for both weeks: 193.8 lbs (+1.3), 39.1 fat(same), 41.4 (+.1), and muscle 45.4 (+.7). I like that the muscle is up, but would love for the rest to go down.
I'm hitting the very stressful time of year. I'm having a hard time keeping from eating, so I imagine the numbers will go up.
Thanks for checking on me!

Easter break!

Since we are out of school this week, all I have are my home numbers, which weren't too good.
192.0 lbs (-2.4), 39.1 fat (+.5), 41.4 water (-.7), and 44.7 muscle (-2). You can see where I lost the two pounds at, but at least it's gone.

I'm afraid that it will only be for the moment, though, since I have Mom cooking for me! I'll post again on Friday so we can see if I've been good!

I am soooo ready to see a number with an 80 in it!

Be careful what you wish for!

Since I was bemoaning 192.6, my body decided to have a laugh this week.
194.4 lbs (+2.2), 38.6 fat (-.4), 42.1 water (+.6), 46.1 muscle (+1.6). I like the muscle being up, which is probably a result of getting in a few more workouts than the previous week, but still not up to my regular workout schedule. We have had rain and a couple of super windy days- definitely not conducive to walking.

I did do a personal best- about a mile and a half straight run (jog speed). I was on my own and only had a short time to workout, so I decided to just see how far I could go (after a warm-up, of course!) I planned on keeping running, but my body mutinied and just quit!

I plan to me more diligent on writing down my foods. I checked my food diary and it's been a month since I had written in it. That makes it easy to cheat! I thought I'd also report back every few days to let you know my points totals. I get 24 a day, plus 35 "extra" for the week if I want them, as well as points banked for exercise. I don't usually eat the banked points, but do get into my flex points most weeks. I'd drop a lot faster without those- but sometimes ya just gotta eat!

Thanks for checking in.

Yada, yada...

I've decided to weigh in twice a week. Friday I was 191 at school. Today I'm........3 guesses the first three don't count.......192.6. I won't even bore you with the other numbers. I'm dead even, which I guess is better than being up, but still fairly discouraging.

The good news is that I am better enough to work out, but now the weather isn't cooperating. We plan on walking tomorrow, maybe doing our intervals of running. (be ready, Ann Marie!)

Soooo....I'll get back to you on Friday, hopefully with better numbers!

Nothing ever changes......

After a week of little exercise and being sick (still sick), the good news is that I didn't gain any.
The money scale remains the same- 195.5.

At home, there was a little variation: 192.6 lbs (-), 39.0 fat (+.6), 41.5 water (-.6), and muscle 45.1 (-.9). I don't like losing the muscle, since it will burn more calories. I'm not surprised by the fat since I haven't been working any off!


Sooo, if you're keeping track- that's down 8.4 total pounds since 1/15/08.

Temptation avoided today: a cinnamon roll and a donut!
