Shrinking Jeans Progress

Well over Christmas break I changed my focus to not gaining weight but still enjoying myself. While our family was in Branson I didn't work out but I did run up and down the stairs. There were alot of stairs.

To my surprise when I came back, I had ballooned to a lovely 166. That means I gained a couple of pounds. I think my biggest thing with putting on weight is where it shows up. I am aware that it shows up behind me etc. But the biggest place it bothers me is in my face. I am so not crazy with the 3 chins it gives me.

Now that we are back into the routine, the gym is definitely on my schedule. I have so enjoyed the Pilates classes, Zumba and of course the elliptical machine. I have been diligently doing it for over a week (lol). My body has all those wonderful aches that remind me that what I am doing is working. More than that I like the way I feel.

And can you believe I can see progress on the scale as well? Joy, oh joy, I am down to 160. Woo hoo! Of course if I weighed in front of you, I would be 162 because you probably wouldn't want to see me in my birthday suit!

I will glad to again see the 150's. Why is that theses pounds become so friendly: up and down, here and there.

I know I am bearing my inner soul here so please don't think you have to say anything. I am absolutely doing this for myself and I love it!
