Back to reality

Morning weigh-in: 197.5

Which means several things: I didn't gain weight on my trip, as difficult as it was to not do so, I have officially hit the 10lb mark, and I'm SO happy to be home :) The new wellness center opens tomorrow and I am totally ready to hit it hard and take off the rest of this weight. I have 47.5 pounds to go and I'm feeling good.

On the trip I bought a shirt that baaarely fit me... just a little tighter than most people should wear. I hope that by the end of this it won't fit me because it'll be too big :)

I have also done my measurements, since I was unable to do so last Sunday. All of my measurements are lower by at least half of an inch :) Thusfar I've lost 3.5" off my hips, 3" off my waist, a full inch off of my thighs and half an inch off of my arms. I'm feeling pretty good. Yay!

My immediate goal is to get out of the "obese" category of BMI, and it looks like I have several pounds to go. But until I get out of there I'm still putting myself at risk for diabetes and heart disease. Eeew.

It sounds like I'll get my exercise this weekend since we're going to have to sandbag the river. Apparently we're supposed to have a pretty serious flood. :(
