I am up, Mom's Down!

Yes, I gained weight this week...I will admit it. I am not proud of it, but it's true and that's just life. I did really good this week too. You're probably wandering how it is possible that I gained if I did good. I didn't do as good Saturday afternoon...through early Sunday morning. I went to St. Louis with some good friends of mine and had a great time. It was completely worth it. We ate at The Melting Pot (So much fun...and delicious too) and I had several drinks and even pizza at 4am. I think that even though I did REALLY good throughout the week that I overdid it in that 12 hour period. I also haven't been getting to bed very early. Excuses, excuses!

Since I did gain, I'm thinking this is the amount I would like to gain. (.2 lbs) for a total of 6.6 lbs now.

So, here's to another week...hopefully a better one as far as losses go. It seems that my 6.6 is so measly now that I've been at this for a month. But hey, it's 6.6 lbs. lighter than I was a month ago. I just wish it was as easy to take off as it is to put it on.I almost forgot to mention....ON THE POSITIVE SIDE...I was measured again yesterday at the gym. I've lost 10 1/2 inches altogether in my arm, chest, tummy, hip, and thigh area. Not bad for 3 1/2 weeks! I guess I have to look at the bright side!

Can't wait to hear how everyone else did this week too.

UPDATE: MOM WEIGHED IN.....SHE LOST 3.4 LBS THIS WEEK FOR A TOTAL OF 7.2LBS! SHE'S PASSED ME UP! So proud of her though. That's a lot!

(Mom, is that print large enough??? She told me to put it in BOLD black letters!)

I did lose a little. I have had better weeks. I haven't started exercising yet but need too. I guess I should take that back. The last 2 days I have walked over my lunch. So I am starting a little something. This spring/summer we will have to walk together sometime. I was down .8. Good luck the rest of the week. Hope to see you next Tues.

Hang in there.

Not to point out the obvious...but perhaps it is just that time of the month where you are just retaining water...hint, hint????
