Weigh-In Wednesday

Yeah yeah, I know, it was supposed to be on Tuesday!  Hulu just posted the show today so I postponed my post.

Today's scale reading was a big surprise to me.  A month or so ago I snuck into the 170's and was staying there.  Seeing those numbers was quite a blow, I hadn't been that heavy since Middle & Highschool (my peak being 180).  This morning I broke back into the 60's and had a weigh-in of 169.2 pounds!  That is a 3 pound loss from last Tuesday!  Wow!  I am (almost) speechless!  I've never had much success with planned weight loss, and I am keeping my fingers crossed that I can keep this trend going.  By the time it really gets cold again, all of last years jeans should be a little too big :)

There's a contestant on the show this year that's from Kent, Ohio which is exciting.  I'll be routing for Aaron (I think that's his name).  He was talking about the Terminator Sub today, which I am quite familiar with.  It was pretty disheartening to watch Jillian and Bob gaging at the thought of one of my beloved sandwiches!  I know it is a horrendous meal, but I will get it again in the future... definitely not a lifestyle.

While I've been diligent with my exercise, my crafting has fallen by the wayside.  My weekly goals are non-existent.  I have a few projects I need to finish up for family members, and lots of ideas for new items, but nothing is getting done.  Time to reboot!  One thing I've stopped doing in the past year is beating myself up over 'failures'.  Each day is a fresh start, and I can pick up and start again.  So I ate a few cupcakes yesterday, no need to beat myself up for it, just make today better!  I'm trying really hard to not let self-imposed guilt get me down.  After this post I am going to clean the kitchen and then work on some sewing projects.
