Inches gone, pounds on!

Well, I must say, Happy Belated 1 Year Anniversary to me!! *confetti in the air*
And, I need to appologize for not logging in earlier. The scale broke and I didn't know my weight until it was fixed yesterday. The reading was not good.

238.9 lbs.

And that's even after I watched what I ate even more carefully than usual! But, thanks to My_So_Called_Life, I was able to find a well illustrated book by Jillian Michael's that told me to "Take your measurements before you take your weight.." something I wasn't so diligent on doing. I've lost one inch in my abdomen. I haven't really been able to do that much exercising besides jogging due to the fact that I work, work, work, work, WORK all the time.
I run up stars, I run down stairs, I vigorously paint a door, I lift 5 gallons of gasoline, I run from a protective bee, etc. I'm always moving around or doing some kind of muscle building thinga-ma-bob.
But, On Wednesday, I'll take a trip up to see Chicago, and I'll be getting a lot of walking in that way. It's 4 miles to Navy Pier from our hotel and I don't think we're driving 4 miles in a crowded city. That's how French women stay so thin, you know. They walk everydangwhere!
Nevertheless, even though I've gained a few pounds I feel great about the inches gone. It reallys makes me think I CAN get down to 200 pounds by the end of this year.
That's only 1,2,3,..4 months away. If I can average 5 pounds gone every month, I'll be good.

I'm really feeling positive right now. But, I've also got that view of reality,too. I might not be 200 but, if I can even just be in the 'teens I'll be so happy.

Thanks again to My_So_Called_Life (yearning2findme.blogspot.com) for setting me back on the path to sanity.

P.S. I performed an at home Brazillian Wax a couple days ago. Not as painful as I thought it would be, and very appealing now.

Need to ask a few Q's?

Hi there, friends! I'm having trouble finding time to log in and type up an entry. Not that I don't have stuff to say (believe me, I am Miss Motormouth!) but, between moving and school, and work, it's hard to find time for my favorite blog in the world.

So, because I still want to be "there" for you, I'm gonna give you a link to something I HAVE to check everyday.

If you have any questions whatsoever about weight loss, please don't hesitate to email me. I will do my best to respond in an acceptable amount of time.

Catch ya later!
