Weekly Wrap up

I had my weigh in this past Saturday and it was great. I lost the 2.8lbs I put on over the last two weeks. I exercised as usual and ate more of my points. I'm still down 10lbs but I wish it was more. We shall see how this week goes.

This weeks weigh in was another disappointment. I was up 1.2lbs. This past week I stayed on plan and exercised 4 out of 7 days. I stayed after to talk to my meeting leader about my weight gain. She suggested that I start eating more since I'm working out so much. This upcoming week I'm going to start eating my weekly allowance points.

I also decided that I wanted to sign up for a 5K. We(Gainesville) are having an inaugural BeerRun! I'm only signing up for the beer party after the run ;). I have Plantar Fasciitis and a bad ankle so running is the last thing I need to do but I'm going to try. I started a couch to 5K training program. Day 1 killed me, I'm not sure if I can run for 30min. But I'm sure going to try.

This weeks weigh in was a little bit disappointing. I was up 1.6lbs. I know that weight fluctuates so I normally wouldn't be upset. I am upset though! I was so good this week! I didn't drink any beer and I started working out with a personal trainer!!!
I've been listening to a couple weight loss/fitness podcasts. It's been very confusing so far. The information they provide is great but it is at odds with what WW teaches. I'm not sure what to do. My ultimate goal is to lose weight but I don't want that loss to come at the price of my muscle mass.
I think I will continue with WW for another month before I decide to switch my diet.

I have lost a total of 10lbs since joining WW!!!! I'm really excited and can't believe I'm actually losing weight. It has been a few years since I have lost a significant amount of weight and its refreshing to know I still can! I still have a good amount of weight to lose but I'm ok with that. Rome wasn't built in a day and I didn't just wake up one day with all this extra weight.

I'm really scared that the weight loss will slow and that I will lose my "drive".
I'm taking a Resting Metabolic Rate test on Monday and hopefully that test will also help me stay on track.

I also got my hair done. :) My stylist calls it my summer hair

Friday Night fun

I'm finally putting up more makeup stuff.

I woke up on time today so I got to spend more than three minutes getting ready. I decided that since it was Friday I was going to wear my Makeup Forever Hot Pink eyeliner. I love their eyeliner! It's waterproof and easy to apply. The colors are also very bright when you wear them which is a problem I have found with "bright" pencil eyeliners. They usually go on very pale in comparison to the color you see.

I was bored, so I decided it was a good time to put on a face mask. I chose my Queen Helene Mint Julep masque. It always makes my skin feel so smooth afterwards.

Enjoy the pictures of me making funny faces 😜

Weekly wrap up

I've only been doing this for a month and I'm already tired of it... Which is not surprising to me. I'm going to keep this blog up because I need to be accountable. I'm also considering how awesome it will be to read all of these posts once I've reached my goal!

This week was a bad week for working out. I only made it to the gym twice. The highlight of the week however was my weigh in! I lost 3.6lb!!! I'm now down 7lb. That really gives me the boost I need to continue.
This week I need to work out AS SCHEDULED! No excuses.
I'm not too worried about getting off track over the Fourth of July. I'm on call so we aren't going anywhere and we probably won't even BBQ. I did drink a lot of beer this weekend so I'm hoping it doesn't derail my weigh in next week. I'm going to ramp up the intensity of my workouts to keep this from happening!
