Moment of truth~weighed in and recorded it. Gained a pound. . .after my carb filled Memorial Day weekend and way too much eating out for May (just balanced my checkbook, way too many entries to restaurants) too many doritos and sodas, I'll take it and move forward. Also did my measurements, no change there (carbs filled the inch back in off my middle, poop). So I'm recording my measurements here as a start, but I'm including my measurements from a year ago so I can see I have made some progress:
Apr 2012 166 - May 2013 150
rt. arm (bicep) 13 -- 12
lt. arm (bicep) 12.5 -- 12
bust 38 -- 36
waist 34 -- 30
belly button 35.5 -- 33
ab (lower belly)36.5 -- 35.5
hips 42.5 -- 40.5
rt. thigh 26 -- 23.5
lt. thigh 26 -- 24

I didn't realize until I put the numbers side by side, how many inches I had lost!! Yay me! For june I want to whittle that middle, hips, and thighs down.

I challenged myself to start working out in the mornings and have consistently done it since Mar 1 (fell off a bit last week, but got back up this morning and started again:). So I am giving myself another challenge. This is a big one, as I've tried to do it several times and failed, but I will succeed. I am going to make myself a healthy breakfast every day - NO DORITOS AND SODA. NONE! I CAN DO THIS! Why? Because I love myself more than I love doritos and soda :)

Hope everyone has a great weekend!

150.6 lb Lost so far: 15.4 lb. Still to go: 20.6 lb. Diet followed reasonably well.

Those numbers are awesome from last year to this year! You must have learned some good things since last year to have the inches and pounds off that you do. I'm doing my weight and measurements tomorrow, so I have to get on here and log. I hope you can kick those doritos and soda!!

Thank you! The main thing I've learned it's eating right and exercise, you can't do just one or the other! However, the exercise has made the biggest difference for me.

That's a fantastic change from a year ago. Give yourself a pat on the back!! Good challenge for yourself to exercise every morning and maintain that. Even better challenge to make yourself a healthy breakfast. I bet if can eat at home every morning, you will see a huge difference on the scale. Doritos and soda are yummy, but loaded with empty calories. There's a lot of ingredients in there we don't even know what they are. And yes maybe the FDA has approved them but are they an okay part of the diet? Good luck and have a great weekend!

I think I will see a difference on the scale by eliminating this breakfast and replacing it with a good nutritious breakfast too. I'm looking forward to this challenge! You are so right they are just empty calories with no health benefit at all. Thx and have a great weekend too!
