Heading into another weekend! I am going to log into MFP every day this weekend and do my BEST to not have my weight go up!!
Yesterday was cardio and we did 30 min of intense Billy Blanks.
Today is lower body weights. I am looking forward to it!
I am amazed,but not overwhelmed at the amount of weight I have to lose! I was thinking about it yesterday and wow........I still have 80....EIGHTY....pounds to lose! It is so much but on the other hand,I know it is very possible and I *AM* going to do it.
Everytime I see a new number on the scale it makes me want to cry(with JOY of course!).It is such an excellent feeling.One pound at a time......To never return.
Some of my shirts I have just been not liking lately.They just seemed to HANG and it finally hit me! THEY ARE TOO BIG!!!! I had so much fun throwing them away.......
I can squeeze into 2 of my size 14 skirts.......My bigger skirts are all getting loose.
Well,I am off for now.I have so much to do today!!!

Hello ladies!!!
Ok I had a BLAST measuring myself this morning!!!!! I lost so many inches since last time I measured and that was only 3 weeks ago! I don't think I have ever had so many inches lost so quick.I know the strength training made a big difference! Check them out.......The BLACK ones are from the VERY beginning.The RED ones are from 3 weeks ago and the BLUE ones are from this morning!!!!

Waist (under bra)-35 1/4
Waist (belly button)- 49
Waist/hips (3 inches below belly button)-52
Rear- 49
Right upper thigh-28
Left calf-16
Bust- 42 1/2
Feet together/both upper thighs together-49
Left knee-17 3/4
Left arm -13
Waist (under bra)-35 1/4
Waist (belly button)-44
Hips-(3 inches below bb)-48

When I hold the tape at the inches I was when I started it is sooooooo huge! I can take the old measurement of my waist and slide in completely down over my hips/rear.
I didn't do my weights Monday.Dh was here and I was going to do them anyway *until* he took me out fencing with him for several hours! lol I was going up and down mini mountains and wow did I get a workout! SO I didn't feel bad.It was excellent lower body too which is what I would have been doing on Monday.
YESTERDAY I did not do my peak 8.I decided to hold off on doing it until school is out because we like to go away from the house and do it and we don't like to take the children out during school hours lest any busybodies think that our children aren't getting schooled.It is too hard to wait until after school hours to do it.It doesn't get done! lol So we will do my new Billy Blanks dvd on cardio days for now.It is KILLER CARDIO so perfect for high intensity.Anyhow,yesterday I didn't do anything except for push mow my lawn for 2-3 hours and work in my garden.Not Peak 8 but not sitting around either!
TODAY I am doing upper body weights.
I KEEP FORGETTING TO DO "ORGANS IN PLACE". I need to get on that!!
I have also not been doing very good at body brushing.It has been SO hectic though and that will be a little better after planting (gardens AND fields) are done.
I DEFINITELY need to do something about my weight going up too much over the weekends and then I have to spend MON/TUE getting it back down.I mean,I am losing but I know I could lose more.My plan is to have my Free time SAT night and then really crack down and have a LOW carb day on Sunday so I am starting out Monday at the same weight I was SAT morning.That's what I am going to shoot for......
Well,I better run! Lots of gardening to do today!!!!!

Strength training done.........
Ouch lol.
Have I said that I am LOVING this?????????????????????
As I was laying on the floor in front of the mirror doing leg raises I looked over and my rear end DOES look and feel smaller.Makes sense cause I measured yesterday and I was down an inch in my rear! Amazing how much of a difference one inch makes!!!
My weight *is* up today to 211.4. I am fine though as I know it won't be there long and my *high* numbers just keep getting lower!!!! :):)
Today I am aiming for a LOW LOW carb day........Check myfitnesspal to see if I succeeded by the end of the day! lol
Esther...........Come on! Jump on in with us!! You WANT and NEED to do this! Don't let yourself get into worse shape!!!!!!!!
Well,I am off to plant about 50 pepper plants.I did 80 tomato plants yesterday.I have lots more to plant too....Including flowers :):).
Bye for now!!!!
I *AM* going to be doing T-TAPP "organs in place" (thank you Nataly) and see if that makes a difference for me.
For part of my workout today I did squats (DEEP SQUATS) with 20 lbs on each dumbell.........Wow lol.You should try it!!!!!!
