It's been a really great day workout/food wise. Except for that personal training moment where I was asked to perform a ridiculous exercise that made me feel the true extent of my fatness! Thanks Carrie for allowing me to rant on the phone to you at work and for building me up. :) I'll give the rest of you the brief rundown of said difficult moment. Fat girl (that's me), lying flat on her back on a paper thin mat on the floor in the center of the gym in the full glory of full length mirrors. Feet straight in the air trying to hold a resistance ball between my ankles having my fat stomach merge with my shrinking boobs (the only weight that seems to be leaving me lol!) Add to that the wonderful notion to do crunches. Having recapped that, I feel a loud voice in my head reminding me to KEEP IT REAL! I have been working my butt off (not literally) trying to eat well, exercise, even going sober on the whole soda/sugary drink thing. I'm down a total of 10 lbs, but realistically ladies, I feel I should be down more and see atleast some sign (other than my shrinking boobs) that the fat is melting away. I know that I need to be proud of what I am doing to work towards my goal so here is my positive comment amongst all my frustration....I can rock it on the treadmill now at a 4.0 incline at 3.2 mph for 1 hour straight followed by a 5 minute cool down. Better yet....I'm not panting or near death! :) There you have it. LIFE IS GOOD!

10 lbs is fabulous Leasa! Seriously!
ReplyDeleteOn another note - holy cow my boobs too! I'm not exactly sure if it's from the weight loss or the second baby or what, but my already "dainty" boobs are now even smaller! I'm chalking it up to both but man - when we decide we're really done having kids, and have the money to spare (ha!), I'm so getting a boob job! I consider it my payment for breastfeeding. lol So at least you're not the only one! Don't worry though, your clothes will start to fit lose in other areas *besides* your boobs soon!

ReplyDeleteLeasa,
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on your 10 pounds! Personally speaking I think the first ten pounds isn't as noticeable for me as the second ten. You are doing great and in another 5-10 pounds you will be wondering who that hot chick is in the mirror!! Keep it up. You guys are inspiring me with your weight loss, Thanks!!
