Day #55 - Leg cramps and swollen ankles.

Starting weight (7/15/08):  279.8
Yesterday:  262.2  Today:  260.6
Change today:  -1.6   Loss-so-far: 19.2 lbs.

WOOOOHOOOOOOOOOO!!!!  I’m down at the BOTTOM of the 260’s and maybe-just-maybe-pretty-soon I’ll be saying goodbye to that particular group of ten FOREVER!!!!!!  YAY!!!!!!!

Ahem.  Okay, I’m back in control.  Sitting in front of my computer instead of dancing around the room.  =D

Speaking of dancing around the room, it’s all I’ve been doing for the past three days.  Every spare moment I’m out there in front of the DDR, shakin’ my booty and lovin’ it.  OMG I am so addicted to this thing!  So addicted that I woke up in the middle of the night with a horrible cramp in my thigh.  In my thigh!  I’ve never had a charley-horse in my thigh before!  I didn’t know how to make it go away… standing up didn’t work.  Walking didn’t work.  I was in agony for about… 2 whole minutes.  And then it went away by itself.  Ugh.

Also, my ankles and knees are swollen.  Which makes me happy actually, because I sustained a weight loss even THOUGH I have exercise-related-swelling.  Which means when the swelling goes down I just might see some more loss on the scale… I hope so!

Oh, I also measured myself today and since I started (back in January), I’ve lost a total of 16 inches!  The most significant changes are 2 inches from my waist and 2 1/2 inches from each thigh!  YEEEEHAWWWWW!!

OMG I’m so celebrating EVERYTHING today!  I can’t help it, I’m just excited and happy - to be making progress, to be up and moving, and to be feeling so damn GOOD! 

YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
