Feeling Fab Friday

This morning's weigh in showed a measly 0.2lb loss, really not what I'd hoped for, BUT I am determined to stay focused - what the scales say doesn't matter as much as what the body says... and it says I'm doing okay!

So instead of beating yourself up about 'still stuck on XX pounds lost', I challenge you today to celebrate and rejoice in 'a fantastic XX pounds lost, as well as feeling fit and healthy'! :drinker:

Around 190lbs

147.2lbs

    Thank you all!

    I guess I'd like to lose another 10-15lbs, there's still a lot of jiggle going on under those clothes, lol! BUT I'm going to continue with the weights and strength training with a wee bit of cardio and just see what happens. If I can get rid of the jiggle without getting rid of the pounds so be it, all's well that ends well!
  • What a great post. I was in the same boat as you today and you made me feel better about it. You look amazing BTW keep up the great work!!!!

    Check you Missus!! Looking absolutely fabulous!! That's one heck of a transformation!!

    And thinking about it, while I many not be feeling 100% fab, I do feel good for a Friday :bigsmile: simply because it IS Friday :drinker: and as an added bonus, I'm not as achy as I thought I would be from last night's almost 2 hour TKD sparring class! :drinker:

    I'm feeling fab this Friday because I no longer look like this:

    Today I am channelling Ellen Ripley from Alien, wearing my USS Nostromo t-shirt, and my new running shoes, even if I did spill an entire cup of tea over them this morning. And my boobs look awesome, even if I say so myself!

    Sharon, I totally agree, doing a weight training/strengthening that shifts the body composition, and a program that you can stick with for the long term maintenance, that's has much more value than the number on the scale... you may not loose another ounce, but you could lose a dress size or two and be firm... yep, that's where I'm headed! Great work!!!!!!!!!!

    Y'all look great!!!!
    I am also feeling Fab this Friday! Scale says nothing worth repeating but, I was able to button my fresh out of the dryer jeans this morning without having to suck it in and struggle! In related news, I need to find a belt. :laugh:
    I love happy people posts.

    No weight loss this week, but after 2 months of P90X dvds and just pushing "play" every morning, my abs look flat and tight today in my form-fitting red sweater and jeans. I'm having a great hair day, I found the perfect shade of lipstick - I totally agree that today is a Fab Friday! And BerryH, you look HOT in those jeans!!! MrsSWW, beautiful figure, fantastic waist!

    It is the weekend, it is no longer January, AND I ran all the way from my office to the train, made it just as the beeps went and it was all in half the time it takes me to walk it after not managing to leave on time...oh and home to homemade healthy kebab and homemade healthy wedges....today is GOOD! (tomorrow will be even better!)
