Today is GoRedForWomen’sHeartHealth. I am wearing my red sweater, my red dress necklace, my ruby earrings, my ruby and pink sapphire ring and my red lace bra. OOPS TMI!

Last weigh in I was 128.2 pounds. That a gain of 0.4 pounds. I know why, M and I went to Chevy’s on Saturday and I had the whole lunch. This week I read a post that when you eat out, you need to increase your water because of how much sodium is in restaurant food. I went on their website and checked the sodium level. She was right! That’s why I gained 1.4 pounds in a day. Saturday I was 126.8 pounds. Last night when I went home I ate: a grilled cheese sandwich, a brownie, some Doritos, some slices of pepperoni, drank a glass of milk. And as I was wondering if I should have more Doritos or another brownie, M. called to tell me she was coming home and I could go work out if I want to (I was watching her two youngest for her). It was a good thing, since now I definitely needed to! I’m just wondering how she knew I was eating all her food. Today I feel sick. But I think I just eliminated the problem.
My stats are as thus: 127.8 pounds, down 0.6 from last week, 12.2 pounds overall. My BMI is 24. My measurements are down ¼” from right upper arm, ½” from waist, 1″ from hips and ¼” from thighs. I can button the jeans and get them zipped halfway up. This a.m. I took a step aerobics class. Boy are my thighs sore.
No work today so I went shopping with M and BT. I bought an MP3 player at Target, but had to return it. I went to Best Buy to get another one, and had to return that one! I got a replacement one at Best Buy, it is charging so I don’t know yet if I will have to replace it. The MP3 player is my 10%, halfway done reward for WW. When I reach goal, I am getting a CD player for my car. And after I have maintained for a year, I am going to get laser surgery on my eyes so I don’t have to wear glasses. Now I am going to post this, turn on the TV and knit.
I have lost another 1.2 pounds. That brings my total lose to 11.6, 13.4 to goal of 115. Today I weighed 128.4 pounds. Yesterday I tried on my size 2 jeans and I could get them buttoned. As soon as I post this I have to go lie down. I also got 34 activity points this week. This morning I was going to take D.’s step class but I was too late. M. told me she is now a personal trainer, which I can’t afford, but now I can get some sessions for her anniversary.
I am out of the 130’s and into the 120’s. OK only by .4 pounds, 129.6 was my weight this morning. But I’ll take it! Also, I managed to get my size 2 non-stretch jeans up past my hips. Took a bit of wiggling to make it happen but I did it!
I had a minor personal victory today. Last January I fell down my stairs and injured my shoulder. I started PT in June and had surgery in August. Today for the first time in I don’t know how long, I was able to hook my bra behind my back. It just made my day to get some more mobility back.
I discovered that lemon juice and pepper make the olive oil tolerable. So last night I had leaf lettuce with celery with a teaspoon of olive oil, lemon juice and pepper.
The fiber pills and tons of water, hot tea etc worked! I was only up 0.2 pounds this A.M. Now I just have to stick to salad with olive oil (YUK YUK) every day.
I am just sitting here waiting for the ball to drop. I weighed myself yesterday and was up 3 pounds. This A.M. I was up 2.8 pounds. Later in the day it was down to 1.6 up. I was bloated and constipated so hopefully by tomorrow A.M. I will be back to 130 or less. The only thing I can think of, because I have been counting and exercising is I am not getting enough vegetables or oil. So I am going to increase both next week.
