    Good Morning TAROM friends.

    I am 148.5 this morning. It is ok though as I now know my body takes 10 days to process that pound of fat. So I will be back on Sun/Mon to post, and hopefully I am down a pound!!

    You guys are doing great, keep up the good work!

  • arewethereyet
    arewethereyet Posts: 18,702 Member
    It must be turkey day in canada or sumpin!! haha

    I did not lose anything this week.

    But I did:
    Drank my water.
    Do Push ups each day
    Do Squats every other day
    Cardio 2 days, once my foot healed.
    Ate very well this week....except went UNDER each day. Which we all know is not good.
    I think I did this because I was afraid with no exercise all week.

    I feel great. Energetic, strong, healthy. SOoooo if I lose in the next few days, as has been my experience thus far, I will post my new stats.

    Funny, I did pick up the weights while dancing this week. I am shooting for 3 days of dancing. It de-stressed me in a major way.

    I am going to post my stats every 10 days, that seems to be when that pound shows up.

    I am 146.5 today. Measurements all the same ( for now )

    And DBran...dont forget the fatty pockets on your back have something to do with chest measurements...they are likely gone!!
