162 lbs.

down 35 lbs. from start

22 lbs. to my goal

 

So we did our re-evaluation with Jeff yesterday. I had lost about 4 pounds in a little over a month. My body fat percent stayed the same. And I actually did see some changes in my measurements. I lost an 1.5 inches in my hips. I also lost a tad in my arms, thighs and waist but the hips were most significant.  That was interesting just because I never really seem to see a difference in my measurements when I do them myself. I would like to see my body fat percent go down next time. Phil is doing awesome though! He has lost about 9 pounds this last month. If he just puts a little bit of effort into working out and eating right, he will lose so quickly. I'm proud of him. I never thought he'd join me in trying to get healthy and lose weight.

 

I'm still 3 pounds away from where I want to be when I leave for vacation. And that's in 4 days! It's a long shot, but I'm going to try not to go crazy this weekend while we are on our float trip. Phil's step mom was talking to me about what to bring and asked me to make brownies. I told her that I didn't want the brownies and I'm bringing a watermelon instead. I have really been craving a nasty dinner though. I just want a big juicy burger and fries! I'm sure it'll happen at some point this weekend. I can't deprive myself forever. I get crabby. lol.

 

I ordered a VS swimsuit top online and just got it yesterday. Why are their Large swimsuits not large?! It fits me. But barely. I just wish the triangles covered more. I still plan on bringing it on vacation and wearing it. But it needs to be just a tinnnny bit bigger and I'd love it.

 

Today is my last day at Metlife... ever!! It's crazy. It doesn't feel like my last day. This has been my job for the last 5 years. I feel like I'm just going on vacation and I will be back. I'm not sure when reality will really hit  me.

 

Well, I guess I'm going to do a little bit of work today. lol.

 

See ya!
