finally...a fresh week :)

This past week dragged by. I'm glad it's over and my weekly points have reset and I have a fresh slate to start with. I think that is one major thing that helps me keep moving forward. If I had to continue to think about the mistakes I made last week (3 buffets in a row), I would probably just give up. And yet, today's a new day, a new week! and I feel good. I feel like I can do this again.

The past 2 weeks totalled a .2 pound loss. I was up .2 last week and then down .4 this week. I'm actually quite happy. Overall I'm still losing. And my average weight loss is still 1.3 pounds per week since I started. I can't complain about that!

Even better...I've lost an inch and a half off of my hippo hips! I've also lost 1" from my thigh, 1" from my waist, 1.5" from my bust (bummer), and according to the measurement I took last night, nothing off my arms. I don't think that's right though. This was the 3rd time I've taken measurements and the first 2 times my hubby helped. Last night I was attempting to do it myself and I failed on the arms. But, I am pretty sure I've probably lost about an inch there too! I'm most excited about my hips. They the most out of proportion area that need to get to steppin'!

OH! and I'm back in my size 12 jeans today! yahoo!

Starting Weight: 193.4 (BMI 31.2)
Previous Weight: 178.6
Previous BMI: 29 -- Overweight

Week 14:
Weight: 174.6
BMI: 28 -- Overweight
18.8 down 39.6 pounds to go to reach goal weight (135)

Oh, one more thing...I saw some progress pictures of another girl on weight watchers. She is currently at 144 pounds, 4 pounds from her personal goal and the same height as me. She looks incredible! So, I'm thinking I MAY be able to bring my goal weight up a bit. Having never been lower than 155, I don't even know what I'll look like when I get there but if I look even close to as good as she does I may just say...yeah, I'm good here :) Only time shall tell :)
