Well, I stepped on the scale this morning, and lo and behold, I've lost 2 pounds! Whoohoo! I've been eating healthy (smoothies, small portions, etc) and I'm very thrilled with this. The other thing I've noticed is that my clothes are fitting a little looser. I know, for only 2 pounds, I shouldn't have lost an inch yet, but I think I may be gaining muscle as well. I have been helping Jim at the job site, tearing off old roofing, etc, and this is really building up muscle. Hopefully, not just in my arms though. If I lift weights for any length of time, my arms become ripped. I don't want to have muscley man arms, thank you, I like my arms to look somewhat feminine :D
So anyway, it's time to do my measurements. I can't seem to find my tape measure, so I am going to have to borrow one tomorrow from Susan and get that done.
Hi Sweetie,
ReplyDeleteYeah! You're losing weight! Good for you! I am too. You say you've only lost 2 pounds, but that's 3 1/2. I'm losing weight too. I lost another 1/2 pound, today, so that's 15 1/2 so far! Very exciting. I can fit clothes now that I couldn't fit before or not for a long time, and I've noticed that I've lost weight on my face and stomach. Sister Baldwin has lost over 50 pounds.
I'm not so focused on food, now and I'm not eating any junk food and usually nothing with white flour or white sugar, (except some craisins, which do have some sugar on them. I'm also using the treadmill and swimming.
Love, Mom
