Practice

I was at weight training twice this week and also at cardio once. I
need to do more cardio as that's what helps boost my metabolism plus I
miss it. Kinda hard to do it with work but I'll just have to schedule
it and also see if there's a zumba class I can do at work as can't
make the one here unless I work at home every friday

I'm still north of 200 and trying to get south of that number.
Hopefully over next week. Clothes are fitting me better so think I'm
putting on some muscle but I also want to lose more weight.

Also need more sleep. The wee one is up every two hours and while he
goes back asleep easy it's killing me. No sleep also means your body
can't rest enough for metabolism so I'm going to try get some more

4 months on

So down 53 inches all over so far. The boobs went down a bit but still
a EEE cup size, the back gone down a lot and back in regular bras (so
they still could lift the titantic but I don't have to wear
breastfeeding ones only now as they were only ones fitting me)
Here's me trying clothes on for work. A friend at work gave me
trousers and some tops. It's great as I don't want to spend money on
clothes that I could be out of soon.

I'm not as happy with weight loss this week but not surprising as I
need to work out more and also I had beer on Saturday. Three of them
at our block party. That's nearly more than my calories for the day so
back to working out and protein only

I can drink but better off with wine as less carbs. Also the drink has
the side effect of making you hungry and the carbs it's a double
whammy. I went to weight watchers but was a tiny loss

So back in saddle again and keeping a closer eye on my protein and
water intake. I am glad I'm down in inches and so near breaking that
200 barrier I can see it.

It's not a sin to fall, just to lay there so let's move and groove

Psychic scale

So my scales at home seem
To show me lower on start of a week than I am rest of week. I've decided it's the pyschic scales and they are showing me my future weight if I work my arse off this week.

Yesterday they showed me as 199.6. That's under 200 pounds!! How exciting is that. For me a hell of a lot

So other scale says 203. That's still amazing. Why? Because for first time well probably in 10 years it means I am no longer considered morbid obese. I'm still obese medically but not morbid. In fact I would no longer qualify for the surgery even with my other qualifying disorders like sleep apnea

I went to trainer yesterday and going to weight watchers today. I signed up for trainer twice a week as I need it to get me moving more and putting on more muscle. Hopefully will take some of the bat wings out of my arms. My thighs still flopping so guess call them bat legs? Although I feel more of an image of a flying squirrel with my extra arm and leg skin. Compared to where I was before i'll take that skin cause I feel I have so much more energy. Ok at moment I don't feel like any but my baby is up every 3 hours at night even with feeding him lots of solids. I dread to think how I'd feel if I still had 90 plus pounds on me

To getting to 199 sometime hopefully soon from my pyschic scales ;)

Week 2

So down over 92 pounds now. I'm 6 pounds away from going under the 200 pounds since I was 205 today. That a huge milestone for me. Ill be in the 'one'derland stage. I also now fit in clothes under 20 and getting smaller. My jeans that were fitting last month after not fitting for a couple of years are now too baggy and I was asked was I going for gangster style today hanging off me ;)

I didn't get to exercise as much this week so that's something I need to address. I do training tomorrow and weight watchers and plan to schedule the workouts. Otherwise they won't happen

Goodnight movin and groovin folks
