Down 1.8 lbs this week for a total of 33.2 lbs lost in 38 weeks! Just 3.2 lbs away from ultimate goal of 150. I have to admit I was a little surprised by this loss. I ate OK but I went to town on a cheese platter while we were away this weekend plus my mom brought over a cake! Pretty sure this weight loss is due to my new gym schedule/tri training not my eating habits. The WW weigh-in lady kind of gave me a look when I weighed in because you aren't supposed to get too far away from your goal number. I want to take the maintenance part very seriously but I won't really be in it until I hit 150 (even though their computer says 155).
This week we celebrated the end of our 12 week challenge. I love having the blog so I can easily look back and read what I was thinking about 12 weeks ago. I was in a rut and resolved to use my tracking journal for 12 weeks. I was not successful in using it every single day but I did use it for a week at a time once a month. I think it was a big part of getting me back on track out of that rut.
I went shopping this week. My mother watched the kids and I hit Marshal's got running shorts that were sorely needed now that I have an extra gym day. I got a dress or bathing suit cover up, not really sure which it is but I really like it as a dress and we're going to a pool party this weekend so its perfect. I also got bikini bottoms!!! They are probably the most boring and conservative bikini bottoms ever but they are a size small!! I have a tank top bathing suit top that I got at an end of season sale a while back, maybe 3 years ago. Never wore it b/c I never got around to getting bottoms, have everything now and it all fits so I'm excited. I was in the same crappy Marshals' dressing room right after I had the baby and I felt so miserable. I was standing in their the other day and it was so nice to try things on and even if they fit wrong or look terrible at least they button or zip and I can actually get my body inside said apparel, there is so much joy in just that.
Tri training has been going well. Doing a race this weekend for my long run. Still have to get the shorter run and a swim in for this week. Wondering if I can combine them for one day rather than two, we're going away for the weekend again so its hard to fit it all in separately.
Disaster did strike once this week when I foolishly asked my waxer how old I looked. She said 35. While I don't consider 35 to be old, I just hate that I may look older than I actually am. Ugh! She knows I have three kids so I'm going to let myself think that came into her equation of my age. But the lesson in this is not to try to look younger or better b/c I feel great as is, the lesson is DON'T ASK ANYONE TO GUESS YOUR AGE!!!
