Week 1 Results

I know, I have already have a post titled Week 1 results, but since I took a monthly long hiatus, it's week one again.......

I'm down 2.5 pounds!!!!!

Collectively between the bust, waist, and hips I lost an inch, but the thigh and arm combined for an inch gain....so overall no inches lost this week.

In the last post, I told you how down and out I have been feeling and I can already see a turn-around in my attitude and the way I feel about myself.  Despite not getting enough sleep last night, I feel really good this morning and even have make-up on!!  I know, you are probably thinking, what's the big deal about having make-up on, well here goes.....I have never been one that had to be all dolled up...I'm most comfortable in a pair of blue jeans, cute shirt, & a ball cap, with my make-up on.  I am also one that is usually 20-30 minutes early for work, but since I have gained weight and felt "frumpy" that hasn't been the case....I have not been wearing my make-up or fixing my hair for that matter, and I haven't been early for work at all....I would say at least 4 days a week I am 5-10 minutes late for work.  Today, I wasn't as early as I normally am, but I was 5 minutes early.  I didn't get up to go walking this morning because it was so late when I went to bed, but despite not getting enough sleep, I really do feel good....very upbeat and positive today.  I can do this, I will do this, and I am going to do this!!!

Several weeks ago, I made a deal with myself...I had to lose 10 pounds to get my hair cut....but I gained 6 pounds.  I have made myself a rewards chart several times, but never reaped a single reward....I guess I had it set too high.  So I am going to do my rewards in increments of 8 this time.  My ninth reward will be GOAL!!  My first reward is going to be getting my eyebrows waxed....which desperately need to be done.  So when I am 5.5 pounds lighter than where I am currently at they get done!!!  Baby steps, baby steps!  My birthday is in 10 weeks, so I am setting myself a mini goal of 20 pounds by then.  I know that every week will not have a loss and some weeks the loss will be less than others, so if I need to adjust it a little I will, but I think I can do it!!  Help keep my on track!!

Let's rock on out!!  Much love to all!!!
