Week 10 Weigh In

Weigh in time!!! Yay... not.

I hate weighing in. I always get so paranoid and I try not to get my hopes up, but it's hard not to.

I thought I did pretty well this week though. I did go out to eat twice. Stanford Grill and Silver Diner. But I also exercised every day this week. And good exercises at that!

I've been doing Couch to 5k consistantly. Week 4 is really tough!! But it makes me so happy afterwards when I finish!

Here's how week 4 is...

5 minute warm up walk
3 minutes jogging
90 seconds walking
5 minutes jogging
2.5 minutes walking
3 minutes jogging
90 seconds walking
5 minutes jogging
5 minute cool down walk

The first half goes by ok, but the last 5 minute jogging interval is tough! It feels like it's never going to end! All together it burns 313 calories or so, which is great!

As you can see, my meals have been really good this week. My new thing is turkey sandwiches. I've also been doing tuna fish sandwiches too:)

When we went to Wal-Mart I decided to get some multi vitamins since I don't take anything right now and I figured I should start taking something. I had no idea they were going to be THIS big!! They're huge. I was really scared to take it, but it wasn't too bad lol.

Anyways, I thought I did great this week, so I sorta had high hopes. But the results weren't as great as I wanted...

Previous weight - 208.0
Current weight - 206.8

1.2 pounds lost. Total weight loss so far = 24.6 pounds!:) I'm really excited to get to the 25 pound mark... it just sounds better lol:)

It wasn't the best I could do, so I really need to try harder this week. I know I always say that but I have 5 days off so I'm gonna try to make the best of them. The only bad day will be Saturday because we're going out for my birthday, so I'm gonna splurge a little.

Unfortunately, I have some bad news. I'm currently not in first place anymore for the Biggest Loser:( Sad, I know. Another girl on my team got a "colon cleansing" and it made her lose a ton of weight. Fortunately, she's only ahead by 0.32%, so I still have a chance!:)

I can't believe there's only 2 weigh ins left! When I first started this, I thought it was going to seem like forever. I guess the fact that for me, it really is going to be forever, has made it go by a lot quicker. It's no longer a game or a competition for me. Yes, I would love to win. But this has become a lifestyle now. So whether I win or lose, I'm still going to be happy that my life has changed forever.

In other news, my sister got her second tattoo today and I absolutely love it!! I also love the fact that she is following in my foot steps:) I love my sister!

It's so beautiful!!:) I'm proud of her for going through all that pain. But in the end, it's so worth it...

Ok, time for me to get back to work. I'm so glad this is my last shift. Can't wait for these 5 amazing days off, celebrating my birthday with family and friends!

Goodnight all:)
