I am very happy to say I am back on track :) Thanks to all of the people that gave amazing advice and encouragement.. if it wasn't for all of you I would still be in pretty rough shape. I read everyone's advice and started to read some blogs again for motivation. It really is indescribable how much it helps to have this giant network of support standing behind me. I appreciate you all so much :)
I re-joined Weight Watchers Online to get myself back on track with my eating. So far the last couple of days have gone well. I haven't been able to go to the gym because everything was closed for Easter, but I did some dumbbell resistance training and walked my son down to the Easter egg hunt at his school.
Surprisingly I have not gained anything back. (Thank God) My meal choices definitely made me feel sluggish, bloated and nauseous, but I did not gain! I re-measured myself today to keep myself on track.
Here are the numbers I am at now, and the difference since returning home:
Weight: 197lbs *down 6 lbs
BMI: 26.7 *down 1 point
Waist: 37.5" *down 2.25"
Chest: 41" *down 1"
Hips: 44" *down 2.15"
Bicep 12" *down 1.25"
Thigh 22" *no change
Calf 15" *up .25" SOLID MUSCLE BABY!! LOL
Here are the differences since I started measuring in January :)
Weight *down 28lbs
BMI *down 3.6 points
Waist *down 5.5"
Chest *down 4.25"
Hips *down 4.5"
Biceps *down 1"
Thigh *down 6"
1 more week until my sister is getting married in Mexico. I am going to stay on track and continue to kick butt. It will be great feeling to be on vacation and not have to feel like I need to stay covered up :) I have renewed faith that I can stick with this thanks to everyone help!
