285 X2

I am at the same weight but I'm not surprised. I haven't ate that great this week. My girlfriend's grandmother passed so there was food trays and wine and someone else's kitchen and then My birthday is on Sunday so family came into town and my aunt cooked dinner for everyone and my aunt really did try to make it a healthy meal with whole wheat noodles and turkey as the protein. I'm just glad that I didn't gain weight this week. I still tried to keep my portions under control and still enjoy myself.

Last night, my cousin had a craving for pizza but nothing was open at 10:30 pm. So we settled for B-dubs 60 cent boneless wings. I ordered some but I only ate one of the wings and I'm saving the rest of them for my lunch today. I'm pretty proud of myself. This has also helped me appreciate food more and money because I'm not spending $7 or $8 for drive through food 3-5 nights a week.

Okay, I'll get you caught up on what I've been eating so you'll understand my stagnant weight...

I was pretty lazy when I was typing up my food log so if it is hard to understand then just let me know!

I also did my first official workout at DMH's cardio center today. Zack was the intern that showed me how to do all the machines and I have to check my heart rate in between every machine. He was very nice but told me he wasn't babying me next time! They also have nutrition classes that start in June so I'll have more information for you.

After this weekend, my life will settle down and I'll get back into a routine. I bought a year membership for the Y also so that I can go to some of their aerobic classes. I'll let you know how that goes too.

And if any of you ladies are single, the interns at DMH are cute!

  1. Remember that as your body is undergoing changes sometimes it'll look like you aren't progressing because you aren't losing weight, but fat might be giving way to muscle and your body may be affected by changes in the amount of nutrients, which will change the way you look.

  3. Crystal, I have gone down two pant sizes. From 26 to 22. I think I will cry when I get down to 18! But I cannot wait. I'm in Decatur, Il so you are still a couple of hours away from me but I visited Adrienne last year and wouldn't mind making another trip.
