Week 7

Week 7 is in the books. Actually it is weeks 6 & 7 since I couldn't weigh in on Labor Day. I have switched my weigh in day to Saturday mornings. Going in the evening after work is just too much. When I get home I like to get my housework done and then go to bed! I think Saturday mornings will work out well. I didn't get to stay for the meeting this morning but I am hoping that starting next weekend, I will be able to stay.

Highlights
I did not fall to temptation in the teacher's workroom or teacher's lounge! There are ALWAYS snacks (not ones that are good for you) in those places. There was some really yummy looking pumpkin cinnamon bread that I really wanted to try but I didn't! YAHOO
I took my lunch to work every day.
I really took the time to think about every thing that I put in my mouth and if I really needed to eat it.
I met my daily step goal 6 out of 7 days!
I did a new workout...8 minute abs. It HURT but I did all 8 minutes!

Lowlights
I "cheated" one night because I was so stressed out. I had two pieces of pizza and a few garlic knots...not really too bad but I felt guilty.
I skipped two meals because I was stressed out...not good because it makes me hungrier later and then I want to pig out.
I only got on the treadmill one time. That 5k in less than a month is going to hurt if I don't get my ass in gear.


I am sure there are more but I forget. I need to be better about writing these things down! Oh well. So here it goes. As of today I am 16lbs less of a FAT MAMMA! That means I am down 3 lbs this week. Only three more pounds until I hit 10%!!!!

I took some time to update my pictures. Below is a picture comparing me from 7 weeks ago until today! Not as much of a difference as I had hoped but oh well.
