Weigh In #2: 274.4 BMI: 41.7 Loss: 6.0 Pounds
That's what I'm talking about! What a great first week! I have alot to be proud of this week, but that weigh in right there is just the icing on the cake. If only every weigh in could be like the one after your first week. :D I'm going to stay motivated and fight like it is the first week every week though so i hope to continue to see great results. Whoop Whoop!
High lights of the week:
1. All smileys up on my exercise calendar. I love seeing those colorful little faces everyday. Who knew stickers could be such a motivation?! They defiantly push me to stay on track and get my exercise done no matter what. I can NOT leave one sticker behind! HeeHee
2. Ate out 3x this week. 2 while working at Regional One and 1 dinner out with the hubs. I let the first one be my free day and had Okelly's. I stuck with the chicken salad sandwich and water, but allowed myself to enjoy their yummy, oh so big, cinnamon roll. I'm so proud to report that was the only thing i allowed myself on my free day. Usually i let it be a free for all day and eat whatever i can, but that does nothing in learning new habits. It's all about enjoying the little things in life in moderation and control! The 2nd one was dinner during a night shift at Regional One. I decided to eat at Sheetz and instead of getting my foot long steak and cheese sub, with mayo, cheese, mushrooms, onions, and ranch on the side i got a steak salad with onions and used only one small cup of ranch. I also usually get a big soda to go with my meal...Dr Pepper from the fountain, drool...but i got a huge water instead. Survived the night with no munchies attack and no guilt. Dinner with the hubs was at AppleBee's. I got a 7oz sirloin, mixed veggies, and little red potatoes. I also enjoyed a few potato twisters. No soda again, only cool, refreshing water. Take that body! :D
3. Places i said no to: Wendy's x2, Chick-Fil-A, pizza the hubs made at home-smelled amazing, but i remained away, left over Christmas chocolate laying around the kitchen, and doughnuts at Sheetz. I was really nervous working at Regional One and sticking to my new eating plan, but after this first week and being able to say no to alot more things then i thought i could, i feel so much stronger. The more i say no the easier it is getting.
4. Got off CCOM at 7am. I had to be at Regional One at 10am. It was cardio day and that means doing a workout on my Wii Active 2. After being up all night i did not feel like moving that much and sweating, but I DID IT! I got a 25 minute workout done and a 30 minute bike ride. Yeah Yeah! I was dreading the workout, but at the end...it felt amazing and was a great start to my day. Gotta Fight, For Your Right, To Sticker!!!
5. I wanted to reward myself today with Bojangles after such a great weigh in, but then i was like, why?! After such a great week why start week 2 with grease and way to many unwanted calories, right? Exactly! Instead i enjoyed my yummy chocolate breakfast shake. Filled me up and left me with no guilt. :happy dance:
Such a strong first week! I can honestly say i am proud of myself and ready to rock week #2 even more. I'm trying not to focus to much on the numbers this go around, but i would love to be 240 by the time i leave for my cruise. That means i need to loose 4 pounds this week and 3 pounds every week after. Not to crazy and doable, i just have to stay motivated and in control. If i continue to have weeks like this, i know i can make it. Mind over body!
