Hi all. I went back to the doctor today!!!!!  This will serve as my weekly weight loss update, as I am only measuring and weighing once per week.  Watching the scales fluctuate every day only serves to drive me bonkers!  LOL

 

I feel exceptionally good about my journey this week.  I hit great strides in the progress department and am prayerful it will continue.  Here's the score:

 I lost four pounds this week, so my current weight from last Thursday is 195, so I'm now 65 pounds away from my goal of 131 pounds.

 Below is what I lost in inchess per area.....(Hey!  Not even I'm brave enough to give you the exact measurements!  Maybe someday but not today!  LOL)

Neck                                               -   .25"

Shoulders                                        - .25"

Chest                                               -  1"

Biceps                   L - .5"            R  - .5"

Waist                                              - 1.5"

Forearms              L -.25"         R - .25"

Hips                                           - 3.25"

Thighs                  L  + 1"          R  + .5"

Calves                  L =same       R  -.5

 

For a total of:        6.25" lost over all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Hoping next week's is just as good!  Keep praying for me!

KRISSY, That is wonderful. You have to be so proud of yourself. I'm so very, very proud of you. You are a great inspiration. I'm going to do it, too. Keep up the good work and post a new pic soon so we can see. YEAH KRISSY!!!!

Krissy - YOU GO GORL! You are doing WONDERFUL! I'm SO very proud of you! And you are braver than I am! LOL! My husband doesn't even know how much I weigh - only my sister does!

Keep up the GREAT work!
Thank you Lynn! I am very proud!!!! I probably won't be posting another picture until you can see some difference. I guess it's because I'm so big, but I can't tell yet! I mean I can tell in that I'm already starting to feel better, but I haven't noticed feeling smaller or my clothes fitting different yet...but it'll get there! I'm believing it will! Thank you so much!
Believe it or not Josh took my measurements for me. There's no sense in hiding it. I'm big and a barn's a barn any color ya paint it! LOL I just figure if I'm honest about how bad it was in the beginning, then I'll be twice as proud when I'm done and everyone will understand how hard I worked to reach my goal. I'm going to kick it this time!

Congrats on your weight loss and good luck in your continuation towards your goal. You seem to be making great progress.
Thanks Kjersti! I still have miles to go, but not as many as a week ago! :-)
Wilma M. May 11, 2007, 12:45am EDT
You are doing awesome! Keep up the good work, chasing those boys around.
Thanks Wilma! They definately keep me busy!
Jennifer F. May 11, 2007, 12:55am EDT
Great job, Krissy! That's a good idea to take measurements because sometimes the pounds don't come off by your shape changes. You lost so much in your waist!
Thanks Jennifer. I care more about the inchess than the pounds! For me they are what counts.
Michele Scercy May 11, 2007, 9:41am EDT
Congratulations! Keep up the good work. Now if only I would get motivated....
Stephanie A. (On vacation) May 11, 2007, 10:09am EDT
Congratulations! You are doing great.

Willpower is all it takes. I never measured my parts, but I lost 250 pounds in less than two years dropping from 425 down to 175. Keep going...you can do it!
Michelle, check out SparkPeople.com. It motivated me when I was able to see how far off from helthy my choices were. It has helped.

Stephanie and Bob, thank you both very much.


Rob!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That is so awesome! Wow!!! Please share your tips and any advise you have. That is amazing and you are a true inspirtation! Great inspiration!

Great work Krissy, Once you begin to see the progress you will feel so good it will keep you going. Good luck and the next few pounds, you have a way to go yet to your desired weight, but it will come off. Also, don't get disappointed if you reach a few times when your weight just gets stuck, It just means your metabolism is adjusting and if you keep at it things will start up again, this is from my own personal experience. Down about 41 lbs. now, starting to feel really good about it and keep dropping slowly but that really is the only way. And the waist measurement drop is great.
Thank you Miss Elsie! Forty one pounds on your part is most excellent as well! It seems we're all trying to make changes for a brighter tomorrow doesn't it?

I'm off now to play baseball with my kids! We have no games today, so we're going to practice amongst ourselves. It'll serve both as a bonding experience and a great form of exercise!
