Well...I lost another pound this week! And I have increased my exercise-up to 43 min of cardio (still using the bike and eliptical - I break up how many min for each to trick my body) and I have been really pushing the machines this week - low wt higher reps.
The size 6 jeans I bought last week are BIG! I can't even believe it (but I am too afraid to try on a 4 - there is a BIG difference between a 4 and a 6). My goal is 115 - so if I continue to lose 1 pound a week (which is a safe amount) I might hit it my the end of the summer!
I saw my internist yesterday and she was SHOCKED! She said I looked so good - not just the weight but she said my face looked calm. I told her since I was on the retuxin my RA/Lupus was in remission and I wanted to get back to working (I haven't worked in over 5 years as a shrink bc I have been too sick) so she took a handful of cards! I am going to need business for the new clothes (although if I hit a size 4 - a true 4 - I have a closet full of very nice things that need a bit of dusting!).
Oh, I made a huge leap of faith and joined my gym for a year (I have been paying for a 20 visit punch card) so this shows my brain and my body that I expect to be a PERMANENT healthy member of the rec center community (and the "I'm getting buff by the day" community!).
