Not disappointed

Morning Weigh-in: 192.

I'm not upset about this. I should have been better, but I'm not surprised that I gained weight-- I drank like 700 glasses of water yesterday and we at at the HuHot (<3!!!) In celebration of the "we beat the flood" concert and my last home concert.

Also, last night was senior recognition night, so that was really fun. I got my very own round of applause when my director announced that I was graduating summa. That felt pretty cool. Of course, I found out later that Tarver and Jesse started it, but it made it no less awesome.

Today is a normal day, and those are the easiest for weight loss :)

I am not losing weight very quickly nowadays, but I think that might be the best way to do it. I lose about a pound a week, and apparently that's what doctors say I should do. I'd really love to just lose ten pounds every week for about a month and then call it good, but whatever. With tendinitis holding me back from really kicking cardio-butt this is the best I can do.

I have said before that I'm starting to look more like a human and less like a blob-- I think this is thanks to weight-lifting. Neat. Humanness. I don't want to get too disgusting, but when I started this process I was developing fat rolls, and now I'm still, you know, covered in fat, but nothing is like bulging out anymore. PROGRESS!

Keep it up Liz.

I was glad to see from one of your other posts that you are measuring yourself as well weighing yourself. Muscle weighs more than fat. With the lifting, and even the cardio you are adding muscle mass. And that will help get your metabolism burning faster.
