FITNESS ASSESSMENTS.
10 pounds
2.9% body fat
4.75 inches
That brings my ONE YEAR grand total to:
64 pounds
18.5% body fat
29.25 inches
I can NOT be more pleased!! This assessment has made ALL of my goals OFFICIALLY met!! I wanted to be considered PHYSICALLY FIT...as of today, I am considered just that, PHYSICALLY FIT!! Not just HEALTHY, physically fit!!! I can NOT believe it!!! I never thought it possible!! I lost another 4.75 inches this 6-week period as well!!! I am BEYOND thrilled and could not be more proud of myself!! It feels amazing to be able to say...I AM SOO PROUD OF MYSELF!!!
This has been a long journey, one that I will be on for the rest of my life. I just now need to get out of the "losing weight" mode and head straight into "maintenance" mode...I am a bit scared. When I had to 'maintain' before, I was young, playing soccer all day, didn't have kids...but I can do this!! If I can lose all the weight to get my life back, you will be sure that I will not allow it to come back on!! We are done having kids, so there are NO excuses as to why it comes back...it will be all me...and it WON'T happen!!!
YES!!! I am PUMPED right now!!!!

Day 447
I'm struggling. I am thoroughly exhausted. My husband and I have been up every 3.5 hours to give our daughter her pain medication since Friday (she had her tonsils and adnoids out Friday morning), been going to the gym as usual but at crazy hours (5am, 8pm...crazy early and/or crazy late) and tired of all the stuff on my plate making everyday stuff difficult.
What can I do to get passed this? I had to make two softball banners by the 11th, pick up money and pass out Girl Scouts cookies (then turn in the money this past week), stress of Hailee's surgery and recovery, the biggest loser competition where I have to send a weekly picture or email, soccer registration was Monday night and we had to collect all the money and forms for both girls teams, each of the girls softball games and practices, Girl Scout meetings, etc...the list goes on and I CLEARLY need a vacation.
I would love just to have a nap, a vacation, A BREAK. I have no one to blame but myself...I signed my girls up for all these activities, I couldn't say NO when the girls asked me to make their team banners...and so on and so on.
What I am REALLY trying to say...how much easier would it be to order that pizza for dinner? Let the house get filthy without caring? Nap my day away?! Ah...love to daydream...

Day 435
BIGGEST LOSER: GREEN TANGERINES.
Week Nine...down an AWESOME 5 pounds, for a total of 13.348%! I am more then THRILLED with this weeks results. Like I mentioned last week, I did everything right...so I am going to assume that most, if not all, of it was that it was that time of the month and when the swelling and bloating went away, the scale reflected the pounds that I actually lost with my workouts and eating right. My knee is feeling better. Its still swollen, but not as bad and my trainer has put me on a LONGER, but MUCH less intense workout...for example, instead of running for 30 minutes, I walk fast for 60 minutes. I feel like I am at the gym for FOREVER, but...it is what it is, right?!

Day 428
BIGGEST LOSER: GREEN TANGERINES.
Week Eight...down a very tiny .3 pounds, for a total of 10.6%. This week sucked. I did all that I was suppose to do. I went to the gym twice as much (to compensate for the lack of cardio since my knee has been so bad lately) and eaten just barely under my daily allowance EVERY day. I think it is one of two things...either I am not eating enough calories each day or it is my body adjusting to the additional 3 hours a week of exercise that my trainer has added to my schedule. It was/still is that time of the month for me, so that could have been a good contributing factor as well. Who knows. This coming week isn't looking good, either, though. I have cut my workouts over the weekend to try to give my body, especially my knee, a break...it will either help me or hurt me...either way, I need it.
