Firelair's Journal, 16 November 2014

I received quite a few compliments today. 3 of the ladies I work with have made it a point to tell me that I looked "beautiful", "very pretty", and even "gorgeous". Wow, what did I do different today!? I straightened my hair and put on a necklace and 3 bracelets...that couldn't be it tho, could it? Either way, it was a very nice surprise!

I made such a fantastic dinner! It was fantastic because it was easy, and cheap. Salmon patties...much healthier than a burger (although, YUM...), and freaking delicious too! Omega-3's lower bad LDL cholesterol, and salmon isn't high in mercury like tuna is, so its win-win! One little salmon steak made 2 patties, so it would be so feasible to have one sandwich per night, its quicker to cook than a salmon steak, and equally easy to make them ahead of time. Did I mention its freaking delicious? ;P

Bought OfficerBF's Christmas gift tonight, got a decent deal on part of it. I know he's gonna love it, just hope the timing works out. All-in-all a productive evening. :D

I've been 180 lbs for a full week now...that's quite discouraging. And after reviewing my weight loss from the beginning of the year, I've found that I lost 11 lbs from March 1st to April 1st; I CAN DO THIS!! At least I have maintained my weight? Just kinda sucks considering I've been working out daily, as well as cutting my calories a bit. Meh...muscle weighs more than fat, blah blah blah...I guess..?

180.0 lb Lost so far: 28.0 lb.    Still to go: 45.0 lb.    Diet followed reasonably well.

Good for you! Don't let anything stop you. Change up your foods, exercise, etc. Our bodies get used to the same thing. Up your protein, exercise intensity or duration. Take a different exercise class, etc. You also need less calories to keep losing as you get smaller. So playing around with them is a good idea.

Healthy choices and healthy habits will always lead to good results... maybe it doesn't show on the scale!

Thanks so much! I'll have to keep telling myself that once I finally get to my first plateau. ;)
