Sunday Goal Check

Weight Update
Sunday could not come quickly enough this week. I really wanted to check my weight earlier in the week, but resisted. The Sunday weigh in helps me stay focused through the weekend. I SO desperately wanted a glass of wine last night, but I didn't think it was worth it.
Today's weigh: 181.3
I met my goal of being under 182! Next week I want to be out of the 180s and into the 170s.
Last week's weight: 182.9
Week loss: -1.6
Beginning weight: 185.6
Total loss:-4.3
Here are this week's pictures:
Belly Bulge has gotta go!
Like the braids? I need a haircut soooo badly!

Fitness
I've worked out everyday since Thursday. I told my husband that I need to commit to exercising everyday until I'm down near my goal weight. Right now I'm just doing 30 minute workouts. Eventually I'll boost it up to 45 minutes or more. Small change, right?!
Thursday: walk 1 mile / run 1 mile
Friday: NTC+ 10 min. elliptical
Saturday: walk 1 mile/ run 1 mile
Sunday: NTC

Other than Friday, I've been exercising after putting BigO to sleep. I'm up late with the baby anyways. The only problem with this is that I have to go to sleep with wet hair. I HAVE to take a shower after I workout. This is not out of vanity. My husband honestly would not let me into bed reeking the way I do after a workout. For now, I don't need to worry too much about the wet hair, but in the winter it would be a big problem.

Family
I tried to do something with BigO every day this week except today. Today was my day to focus on Baby E. She is not feeling well, not sure if it's just gas or constipation, but she cries out in pain and toots a lot. There was a lot of this today.
Imagine ear piercing screams.
Poor thing.
I spent most of the day holding her and trying to keep her happy. I really need to plan something for the 4th of July. We are so lazy about that kind of thing. I want to start thinking of some traditions for our family.

Excited for another week of losing weight, getting back in shape and loving my family!

  1. Congrats on the continued weight loss! I wish you luck as you break into the 170s! While committing to exercise EVERY DAY seems like the obvious answer, try a smaller goal. Say, "I will workout 5 days this week." Hold yourself to it. That way, when life gets crazy and BabyE doesn't stop screaming, you won't judge yourself for skipping a day. I look forward to following your journey!
