Third time is a charm - Hot Yoga was actually (dare I say?) good today. Don't be calling me "pretzel girl" just yet, but at least I didn't collapse halfway through this time (more like 2/3rds of the way through). But afterwards I'm in this strangely calm, relaxed mode. The previous 2 times I kind of had a headache afterwards but this week is differnt. The feeling is very, very good. Also, I like the routine of getting up on Saturday morning, leaving the baby with my hubbie, and heading to the Ashram. And I think keeping this to once/week is good. I ran for 40-60 minutes on Tuesday and Thursday, so I have a bit of catching up to do for my exercise. I am really ready to be down another 20 pounds so that my workouts feel less like torture, and back to just plain hell. Maybe another 20 lbs after that and I'll acctually enjoy them again...
Hope everyone is doing well. Also, anyone have tips on what Jenny Craig stuff travels best? We're in San Diego for 5 days next week and while our room has a microwave I'm not sure what works best to bring. Advice is welcome.

I suddenly look different; just in the past couple days I've noticed. It's surprising how accustomed I'd become to seeing myself at my higher weight. Now when I look in the mirror it's a little eerie at first while my mind hooks up with what my eyes are seeing. I mean, it's not too drastic yet, but definitley noticeable. It reminds me of a balloon that has lost some air.
Oh, I wanted to make sure I journaled my measuremens they took this week at Jenny Craig:
Total Lost: 14 inches, 4 inches each off chest and hips, 3 inches off my waist, and 3 inches off my abdomen.

It's that time again...I'm about to hit the treadmill for one last time before I jump on what I've come to affectionately call "the platform" at my Jenny Craig center. Had a pretty uneventful week, except that it was my wedding anniversary and I prepared a special meal (for my husband). I did great eating my stuff but there was this one loaf of bread I got for him -- a sort of olive parmesean flatbread with cheese baked all over it in this crusty goodness. Sigh. I nibbled on it here and there in uncontrolled moments. Hopefully it didn't "flatten" my results!

Yay! I reached my goal for the week, down from 227 to 224 for another 3 lbs down. I wasn't sure if I was going to get there this week, so I'm very relieved. Woo Hoo! Now the amount I have still to lose is no longer in the 70s...little things like that seem like progress :) The next big milestone is the "under 200" mark. That is 24 lbs and I intend to get there by Halloween! Boo!

losing 3.0 lb a week

Went to a restaurant for the first time in a couple months last night, which is a whole different experience when you have your dieting lenses on. I orderd a salad and then tried to pick around the full cup of cheese they put on it (hadn't noticed cheese in the description).
Next, to my husband's chagrin, I quickly calculated the calories and fat on his plate of chicken enchiladas. I calculated about 1200 calories, and 70 grams of fat. Then he wolfed down another 45 grams of fat snacking at the movie, adding about 800 more calories. What a pig! Good thing he's naturally skinny. A few months ago I'd have been right there with him except, of course, about the naturally skinny part.
But this isn't about my husband. What I found fascinating was the table of four people sitting behind us. They ordered 7 loaded plates of fried food. And one salad. I identified 4 huge stacks of golden waffle fries, 2 enormous sausage sandwiches, hot wings, a couple appetizers, and some other stuff I coudln't see. Next I heard a request for a side of mayonaise
and
a side of ranch. At this, my fat and calorie tabulator had an overload. I felt sickened but mostly I noticed I felt extremely judgmental. It was bizarre. I mean, they were all pretty overweight so it wasn't like it was "down a magic hatch" the way it is with my husband. But still -- my reactions to their food behavior were a mixture of disgust and jealousy. Mostly I just kept thinking of how gluttonous it is to eat more than you need with so many people starving int he world (including me!). I got this really high and mighty sense about things -- I kind of wanted to slap myself. I didn't feel any amity toward those people. Yet I imagine the same runs through the mind of the skinny, scantily clad waitress when I put my "high maintenance" order in. She's probably thinking "Here we go again. Some fat lady pretending she cares what she eats."
Does anyone else feel weird going into restaurants now?
