Just going to take a moment to reflect here...I haven't done my measurements in a while and I need to...the scale is just going up up up...even though my eating has been good...and my exercise has been great...shark week is over so I no longer have water weight to blame...though I did seem to finally lose a lot of that and no longer feel as puffy, I can't say that the scale is agreeing...I put on my super skinny jeans this morning and didn't have to lay on the bed to button them...so that's a good sign, but it's still kind of sad to be looking at high numbers on the scale every morning. Not going to let it stop me. I will keep on with the plan for January and February and then see where I am. I will do measurements on Saturday and see how they compare to before the holidays. I need more metrics than just the darned scale because that *kitten* is not my friend.

Wed was good, had a super great walk on breaks and lunches, plus the pilates/yoga/barre class had more of a yoga focus with some balancing and some yin yoga which was very cool...and my mother made it all the way through class without complaining the whole time...first time ever...maybe she's been replaced by an alien????

Oh yeah, measurements, I totally forgot about those!

Friday was awesome, nailed all my workouts plus got in extra walking.

Weekend was crazy busy, drove down to the beach house Saturday morning, spent the weekend putting down pavers, and scraping wallpaper off the ceiling, raking leaves, sanding and mudding and texturing walls...not a lot of formal exercise, just a bit of walking, but lots and lots of activity and surprisingly healthy eating...drove back Sunday evening, didn't get home until almost 9pm and then finally had a quick dinner then headed off to shower and bed...the formal exercise will start up again! My planned workouts may have to change since I think I need to get more strength minutes for GoT this week.

Monday - sometimes I even manage to impress myself...158 min of exercise for the day...walking, some hogwarts work, weights, etc...even went UP on the weights and finished all of them except the military press (only 10 instead of 15 on the second set, but not bad at all for a higher weight). It was a pretty amazing day given it was also crazy busy with having to taxi kids around and make a run for the grocery store...I did wimp out on dinner and only cook a couple omelettes for mikey, got hot pockets for the kids.

The scale is still being a little pile of felgercarb...however, this morning in the mirror I noticed that I have a wrinkly patch of skin at the top of my abs, which is awesome, that means there is less fat in that spot - yay - shame it has to look so ugly, but in time maybe it will get better!!!

Wednesday - overslept, but at least no headache, got in plenty of walking and some pilates and yoga, and went to bed early! Feeling super slim despite the scale not agreeing with that assessment - oh well!!!
