It’s that time of the week again and its the first check in for the Down & Dirty in 30 Challenge! This is the newest team challenge over at the Sisterhood! I am on the Outrageous Outlaw Team and we are totally going to kick some booty!
But onto my check-in (they have replaced the dreaded title of “weigh-in” as honestly there
are a lot of Sisters who have met their weight goal but have other goals in mind!). As I previously stated, I know that my team is going to kick some booty but I didn’t quite achieve that this week (which gives me a swift kick in the rear to make it happen!).
Today’s weight was 138.4 so I am up 1 pound from last week. Really not happy about that. I’ve been in flare-mode since Saturday night so I haven’t been able to run. Unfortunately I’m having the exact same pain that I had before my hysterectomy (like someone had taken a sledgehammer to my pelvic bones while at the same time feeling “stuck”). I’m trying not to get worked up over it as I had an ultrasound last week and it didn’t show any visible scar tissue issues but I also know that most endo and scar tissue doesn’t show up at all. But I also haven’t quite been sticking to healthy choices. I think I’ve ridden the free weight loss from Celiac as long as it will go and its time to get my butt in gear and start making better choices.
So I started today. Instead of my typical morning Coke, I am having a bottle of water. You have to start small right? In addition to tracking my weight, I’m going to start tracking inches lost as well but I will just keep those updated on my Training/Weight Loss page.
So here are my stats:
Starting weight: 164.4
Challenge Starting Weight: 137.4
Challenge Goal: 132
Last week’s weigh-in: 137.4
Today’s weigh-in: 138.4
Change: +1
Challenge Change: +1
Overall Change: -26.0
Oh! I love that scale! Remember, the scale SHOULD move +/- 5 lbs on a regular basis, depending on water, monthly time, ect! YOu are doing awesome!
Thanks for the encouragement! I really needed it this morning!
Hey thanks for stopping by yesterday! As for the baking soda paste, I like the paste to be thick. I don’t really have a receipe – I just would sprinkle extra powder on as I thought I needed to! My soap scum is really bad! Great blog and I will “talk” to you again soon!
I wouldn’t worry too much about that 1 pound. You’ll have that gone in no time. I love that scale! That’s exactly what we all need, plus a mirror that says we look fabulous!
I love that scale!
And even though you didn’t have a loss, I admire your reset as of today! I’m sure you’ll do great the next 3 weeks!
I so want to buy that scale! The $45 price tag is what is holding me back! Plus I’m not sure the husband would like a sparkly scale 🙂
You are making so much progress! Don’t let 1 pound discourage you!
Thanks for the encouragement!
You’re doing an awesome job, Jamee! I’m sure that weight plus some will be gone next week. I hope you feel better soon, and can get back to your regular activities 🙂 xoxoxo
Your stats so far are awesome. Don’t let one little pound get you down.
PLUS, I’m going to ditch my mean old scale for that one. I need less bad news and more cute and adorable. 😉
I haven’t had the courage to post on my blog yet with my weight. Hoping to have it Monday. My goal for now is to get to 160. You are doing great! I love the scale you have there.
