Some days I have more stains on my t-shirt than a new mother. NOT a good look for a 50ish woman! |

I had a little NSV just now. My coworker told me that my Size 14 skinny jeans are sagging in the butt. Granted, I was just sitting down, but huzzah! AND last night my boyfriend patted my tummy when I was standing up (yeah, he's an odd guy sometimes) and I DIDN'T CRINGE! Hooray!!! |

I am quickly running out of clothes that fit!! A great thing and a bad thing. I went shopping for capris and the 16's are too big but the 14's are still a little snug. UGH!! I'll try again in a couple of weeks.
I have been getting so many compliments this week. I think it is because I finally bought some tops that fit the new me and it made such a difference. I'm down 58.5 and feel so good both physically and mentally. My husband is doing the cooking for us since he retired and I'm still working and it is so wonderful to go home to dinner on the table. He is so supportive and from day one said that he was only cooking what I could eat and that he would eat the same thing. He has really been watching his breakfast and lunch meals and cutting out things that he knows isn't good for him and he has lost around 25 lbs. This new lifestyle change has been great for both of us and with him being on board, it will be so much easier to continue this for the long term. |
Question for you all....
My clinic/coach uses a BC3 to measure body fat percentage and hydration levels. I take these measurements with a grain of salt, and look for the general trends. However, during my last WI, my hydration levels(which have been steadily dropping as I drop the weight) are nearing negative numbers. My coach wants me to drink more water - beyond the 64 oz min that I struggle with (not counting the 16 oz to cover my cup of coffee and cup of black tea), and increase my salt intake to help retain water. Is this part of the true protocol? Or is this one of those many coach specific things? |

NSV for me today finally got word that me contract at work is being renewed. Thank goodness - thought I might be picking bottles in the ditches for a living.
As well, today I actually wore a shirt - untucked - been a tucker for as long as I can remember - that has a little cling in it. I always avoided those types of shirts in the past. The best part, I didn't walk around all day feeling self conscious about how I looked. |
Day 1
I was on this program and very sucessful 3 years ago- then i decided to "test" how far can I go- and i sucessfully gained back 10 pounds!
I haven't been able to start again, until i got on the scale and photographed how far i've come- back to 170.5 pounds. did i really write 170.5 pounds? seems unreal that i weigh that, except that all my clothes are really really tight- that's my "big" set - the others don't fit dizzy: i've never added my comments before and am excited about that being helpful for others and for me. |
