Week 6 summary - Weigh In

Overall it was a good week, until Friday hit.  Friday night hubby and I were going out for a friend's birthday party, so I went to drop of the kids at my parent's house.  I decided to buy them pizza for dinner.  I decided to eat pizza as well.

At the party we drank alcohol which had a ton of calories as well.

Saturday lunchtime we had a children's birthday party to go to.  I had a drumstick of fried chicken, a cut of sub sandwich and some pasta salad, ugh.  Not to mention a slice of cake!  Then for dinner we continued over to the birthday boy's house and I had some Starbucks and buffalo wings.  And this was supposed to be my "day off" from working out.  I dunno how many thousands of calories and carbs I racked in on Saturday.

Sunday was almost as bad because we met up with our Aunt and Uncle and the family for our Uncle's birthday.  We had Thai food for lunch.  They hung out at the house til dinner and guess what was for dinner?  Yep, we ordered pizza again for the kids and that's what I ended up eating because I couldn't wait til 8 or 9 for dinner to be ready for the "adults".
Overall it was a really bad weekend and it showed in today's weigh in:

148.2 (+3)
39.8 (+.4)
27.1 (+.5)

This was last weeks:
145.2
39.4
26.6 

So I decided for this week I was going to amp things up and run 3x this week (compared to only two last week) and do more of my one hour videos instead of only doing the quickie 30 minute shreds.  And if I'm feeling really ambitious, do some kind of ab exercise in the evening.

hopefully this will put me where I was last Monday - which was at my lowest ever in years.

Week 5 Summary

Not such a big leap this week in weight loss...1.2 lbs lost.  But I made it to the big event.  I didn't reach my goal of 10 lbs lost...but pretty darn close...7.4 lbs!  Here were this weeks stats:

145.2 (-1.2)
39.4 (-.1)
26.6 (-.2)

Comparing to last weeks...

146.4
39.5
26.8
I hope to do more cardio this week.  Hopefully the weather is good.  My goal is to hopefully  loose the last 3.2 lbs....and hopefully after that get below 140!  This is so exciting!  As a reward to myself last week I bought myself a size MEDIUM belt!  As my large would no longer tighten enough...as there weren't anymore holes to hook onto.  And as I went dress shopping I was able to fit into a size 8!  The size 8 actually looked and fit better than the 10!  

It's March and there are a lot of upcoming events this month.   Hopefully I can stay focused and continue to drop some pounds!
