Down about 2 pounds this week.
That means that that 7 I gained is gone along with another half or so.
Like I said, my scale is now in storage so I am using the one in my mother's bathroom. Her's is about two pounds off from mine so I may need to make adjustments when I have mine back.
That will bring my grand total to 55.5 pounds.
I'm feeling more in control with my eating over the last week.
Today? Not so much.
I made the mistake of not eating enough at lunch time after doing a tough workout. When it's hot and humid, I have a really hard time eating so when the hunger started, it was the hungry horror show. I ended up eating some of my workout calories. I don't normally do that or at least I don't like doing it but it's going to happen from time to time.
My total calories today were: 1960
My calorie goal: 1720 (per my fitness pal)
Over: 240
My workout calories: 650
All in all, it's a win for today.
And speaking of workouts, today's was no-joke. Damon, one of my regular trainers, is on vacation this week so I got to workout with a new trainer. She is not only new to me but new to this gym. Anyway, she was no joke. I told her as much too. She told me that Damon mentioned to her that I like to work hard and that is exactly what we did today. I love having a good workout. Hate it while I'm doing it but always feel great after the fact.
Tomorrow is a new day and I'm looking forward to saying goodbye to another pound (hopefully more) next week.
Awesome!!!
ReplyDeleteNice job on the workout! And the loss! :)
ReplyDelete55 pounds is a LOT! See--I keep feeling like a know-it-all every time I read your blog, because I told you a long time ago that this was going to happen. Remember? I knew that because I remember your change of heart, which was not a passing phase. You really changed and this is the result.
ReplyDeleteYou are really doing wonderfully. Sometimes, it is 3 steps forward and 2 steps back, but that is like that for most of us. Overall, AWESOME!!!

You are doing great, Jenn!! I am very proud of you! :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Linda!
DeleteI'm getting there. Baby steps.
I'm so proud of you Jenn. I know what a big deal buying that swimsuit was for you- it made me cry for all it represents. big milestone for you, congratulations. You are coming off the sidelines of your life and jumping in on the play. You go girl.
ReplyDeleteI don't miss those New England summers. As you know when i visit in the summers it just saps the life right out of me. I can't enjoy being home unless it's fall or winter. fall is the sweet spot. No joke it really is a dry heat in Vegas, and it makes a difference. I don't completely break down here. LOL.
Thanks Kris!! You have been a huge help through all of this. Your friendship means the world to me.
ReplyDeleteNE summers suck the life out of me too! I should move. That will never happen, but a girl can dream.
