Day 27

Finally broke down and bought a scale.  Even though it’s that wonderful time of month, I couldn’t help myself…I finally got on the thing.  I calibrated it last night at my sister’s house so that it’s accurate against what I used 2 weeks ago. 

Are you ready for this?  This am I weight 151.5!  I can NOT believe it.  That was even after a cup of coffee.  I am almost in the 140s.  So…by my guestimate, I have lost about 13.5 lbs in a less than a month.  I’m hoping to hit the 15lb mark for the first month.  How cool would that be! 

Went to gym yesterday and did 60 minutes on the elliptical machine.  I’m actually starting to like it.  OMG…I can’t believe I said that.  I will be adding some light strength training to my workouts starting today.  Should be interesting.

Gotta go get in shower and ready for hockey practice.

Day 23

Another easy day yesterday.  When I got homoe I was a bit tired and almost didn’t excersice.  We decided to just do some rollerblading with the puppies.  Burned about 200 calories in 20 minutes.  I’ll take it. 

My daughter had to do a school project and needed some photos.  Sad thing was I couldn’t really find any of me.  I know I have been avoiding the camera but this is just sad.  When I get to my goal weight, I promise myself to get some pro pictures of me and the kids for our family albums. 

I did find some photos of me when I was 26….will use those as my inspiration photos.  In my wedding photo, I was 107lbs.  Holy cow.  I won’t ever be that tiny again but 120 would be fabulous. 

I can do it.
