Wooohoooo! As I expected, my weight dropped back down today! Yeeeeeeehaaaa!! I’m loving this! I LOVE losing weight! Love it love it love it! Whoever woulda THOUGHT????!!! Heehehehehe!!
Oh - and by the way - I GOT A RED STAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YEAHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!
Kevin and I went back to the tennis courts this evening! We were gonna go there and just put in a half an hour. He had a project to work on for school, so “Just a half an hour, that’s all.” That’s what we said. So we hit the ball back and forth and chased after wild ones and hit back-handed hard ones and lobbed high ones and tried to save low ones. Both of us were drenched in sweat but still going strong when a couple came into the fenced area to play on the other court. I said to Kevin, “Ya think it’s been 30 minutes? Ya wanna go?” and he said yeah, probably, yeah let’s go. So we gathered up all twelve balls and walked to the car.
I hadn’t worn a watch so I checked the time on my cell - ha! We’d been playing for an hour!! OMG that went by so fast!!! It was a blast though - I really liked it!! I asked Kevin tonight, “How often do you want to do this?” He said, “As often as you want to.” I said, “Really? What if I want to do this every weeknight?” He said, “I’d be good with that.”
Cool!!!
On the way home, we did discuss the fact that we aren’t actually playing a game. We’re just hitting the ball back and forth and trying to keep it in play as long as we can. I told Kevin that I’m not ready to actually play a game yet and he agreed that he wasn’t either. Our plan is to hone our skills more before even attempting to insert rules and stuff. I like that right now we can let the ball bounce twice if we want. =D

Today I had my friend take new pictures of me. It’s only been 10 lbs. since the last time but today I wore more form-fitting clothes. Anyway, here they are:
That’s 270 lbs on the left, 233 on the right.
Then for this next one I didn’t take a backside before, so
that’s 243 on the left, 233 on the right:
And lastly… my updated faces. And hairstyles, LOL!

You go, girl! So you are weighing yourself every day? wow! And the transformation is phenomenal!!!
Yeah, I stopped weighing myself every day for a while back in the middle of last month, but I found out that I really do need that daily accountability! So I went back to daily weigh-ins. The fluctuations sometimes drive me nuts but at least I’m always aware of them!
Wooohooo you are getting so skinny! Look at the difference in the photo’s!! OMgoodness Eileen. Great job! I am so proud of you.
Good going on the tennis. I used to play a TON when I was younger. It was so much fun.
HAPPY Dance on the weight loss dropping back down. Good job!
Keep it up
WOW. Your pics look GREAT!!! I love, love the blonde hair! I’m so happy for you that you’re getting a good workout doing something you love with those that you love. You’ll never forget those tennis “games” with Kevin.

Looking good Eileen! Congrats on the red star too!
You are so wise to take regular pictures. It’s really motivating to see changes like that.
Please add me to the May challenge. I recorded my info for today before I added it as a comment. You are the reason that so many of us are finding success!!
look at your waist Eileen!! woohoo!!! your legs look smaller and more fit! You look great. I also love the blond hair!
You motivate me to do more things with my family. I think its great that you are getting exercise and doing fun things with your family all at the same time.
I miss the challenge. im not sure if I can start in May, because my computer charger is broken. maybe I will pick it up later in the month.
Eileen, what a difference. I’m seeing a waist and a much younger looking woman.
