I'm FINALLY overweight!
Friday, January 8th 2010
hehe...
Never thought I'd say it that way... but I actually mean it!
I've been in the "obese" BMI range for most of my adult life and even when I lost weight 6 years ago... I wasn't in the "overweight" range for more than a few months.
I am here and I am here to STAY!!!
YES!!!!!!
My next hurdle is getting into the "Normal" range - which for my height is at 164 lbs. 32.4 lbs to go. I'll be close by the end of the Easter Challenge. ...
Frustration......

I've really intensified my activity levels with more weight training and have added running to my ca...

So...I've been laying low, so to speak, when it comes to my weight loss. I haven't talked about it with many people or actually seen many people outside those I see on a day to day basis. The ones I see regularly have a harder time noticing the weight loss because it's so gradual.
People definitely notice and remark when they see me for the first time in months... and are just now noticing on Facebook.
Although I do like to change my profile picture on facebook on a semi-regula...
OMG... I ate way too much...

I haven't done this in a LONG time...ate to the point of feeling so stuffed you think your pants button could use some loosening.
I'm not even sure how I did it... I think when I was cooking dinner I was doing more "sampling" than I was cooking... and then, of course, I ate my regular portion for dinner.
whoopsi!
and boy do I have a tooth for fresh homemade salsa. I put 5 tomatoes in the salsa and while, yes, my husband had some... I cleared most of the bowl...
