Weekly Weigh-In & Week 4 Pictures

Weighing In Today:  151 lbs.

Weight Loss for the Week:  1.6 lbs.

Total Weight Loss:  10.3 lbs.

Weight Left to Make Goal:  36 lbs.

(You might have noticed, or may not, that I actually marked my progress on my chart an extra pound more in loss.  Whoops!  I didn't notice until today and fixed it.)

      I made it to 10 pounds!!!! Woot!! I made my goal! I will admit that I was hoping to be under 150, but I'm just so happy that I made it to the 10 pound goal that I'm shutting down any other negativity.  This is the most weight I've lost doing the strict diet.  Speaking of which.  That diet is OVER!!!  Huzzah!  I'm so happy to finally taste bread and occasionally some sugary treats.  I don't plan on going crazy.  Mostly, I'm really just looking forward to Anna's and my birthdays.  It will be great and I can't wait.  This diet has been good for me to do and I'm glad I did it.  It helps to teach me that self control that I need to have.  However, it's not something that I could maintain full time.  I enjoy lots of different yummy foods and I like having the option to have them or not. 

       Anyway, I'm pretty excited for my progress and my measurements and pictures are no exception.  Check it out!

 Week 4 Pictures

       I'm really happy with how my progress is going so far.  It'll be spectacular when other people really start to notice as well.  One of the quotes I have on my wall is "It take 4 weeks for you to see your body changing, it takes 8 weeks for friends and family, and it takes 12 weeks for the rest of the world.  Keep Going."  I definitely noticed some changes from 4 weeks ago.  I think you can see in the pictures my middle section looks better, but I'm definitely looking forward to what week 8 will bring!
