20 Pounds and Counting!!

Today is Weigh-in Wednesday with the Sisters and I think (from the email conversations we've been having this week) the whole Blue Team were holding our collective breath's to see how we did. I know I was! The weekend was kind of stressful and I didn't make the best choices...I didn't totally blow it because I didn't eat EVERYTHING I wanted and I did exercise every night (I'm really looking forward to exercising now, weird huh??), but I didn't have a lot of confidence in the numbers on the scales this morning. But guess what??? I was PLEASANTLY surprised!!

Last week my weigh in was: 208.2
Today's weigh-in: are you ready??
Hold on to your skinny jeans!! Cuz I'm looking to buy some in a few months!!

My weigh-in was: 205.8!! I could hardly believe my eyes!! I lost OVER 2 pounds this week! That's technically 2.10 pounds, cuz ya know those ounces definitely add up!! How did that happen?? I have no idea!! but I am thrilled!!

My goal for this 7 week challenge was to be at or below 200 pounds!! It looks like this is actually feasible!! This is week 4, so I still have 3 more weeks to go.

I told dh that I had lost 20 pounds since March 25, which if you count them that's basically 3 months -- he broke it down and figured that I am losing .22 pounds per day! Over 1 1/2 pounds per week, over 6 pounds per month! I can hardly believe it myself!!

Well I think that's all the shameless bragging I can take for today...but omg 20 pounds is awesome in my book!! Hope ya'll are having a great day!!

GO BLUE TEAM!! We can do it!!

Have I told you lately how AMAZING you are?? WOW!

And technically, you have FOUR more weeks to get under 200, I have no doubt that you will accomplish that goal.
