Did you hear that???

Seriously, did you hear that or was it just in my head? I swear I heard a loud "YES!" this morning when I weighed myself. I know I was going to wait a day or two more before weighing myself again, but I gave in today and I was down!!! But not just that, I'm in a new "decade" of numbers or set of 10s or whatever you want to call it. I'm so happy! I've been stuck in this "decade" since sometime in August. I was beginning to think my scale didn't know how to go down to a new "decade," but apparently it does. I'm so happy!!!!!! I'm only .2 into this "decade," I'm going to have to work my butt off to make sure I don't go up again.

Speaking of which, I hope I worked a little of my butt off this morning. I did a 2 hour workout at the gym, both weights and cardio. Then I came home and did my run (45 minutes) on the treadmill. I was DEAD afterward, but dang I feel good about myself today!

I'm still here...

I'm still around. I've just been busy. I'm not doing a weigh in this week until Friday or Saturday, I just don't think I'd like what I see...you know, those few days a month where the fairer sex tends to gain lame water weight. LOL! But I'm doing ok. I took one day off from the gym and two days off from running. On Thursday my trainer kicked my can at the gym and I could barely walk on Friday. That's the day I took off from both, but I did walk all over the Denver Zoo for a couple hours, so I wasn't totally sedintary. Tomorrow I have a goal to run 2 1/2 miles. I think I might wait to do it until The Biggest Loser starts. That should distract me enough to do it...plus the baby goes to bed at 7pm and my older daughter is good about staying away from the treadmill when either my husband or I are on it so it's the perfect time, right? I have a gym appointment in the morning too, so it's going to be an exhausting day.

Now...someone come take the M&M's away...gah!

Woot!

Today I did an official weigh in for the Biggest Loser competition I'm doing. Since January 5th I've lost 6.1 pounds!!!! That's .1 less than yesterday, but .1 is nothing, I'll lose that plus some this week...at least that's the goal. I've been stuck in a rut for so long...I'm so glad the scale is moving, so very, very, very, very glad!

Just want to say...

I've lost .4 more pounds. I'm so excited the scale is finally going down, even if it is just a little bit. That's all.

1.5 more gone!

I've lost 1.5 more pounds in the last couple days. Yesterday it was 1.6, but this morning I'd gained .1...no biggie. I've already done over 2 hours of cardio today, so hopefully it will go back down tomorrow. But I'm excited. If I lose 3.6 more pounds I'll be in a new "decade" of numbers. I've been stuck in this "decade" for so long. I want that second number on the scale to be different. I'm working my tail off to get there. And then hopefully this next "decade" won't take so long to get through.

Three weeks...2.1 pounds

My weight is ever so slowly creeping off. Three weeks ago I started a Biggest Loser challenge on a mommy forum I belong to. In that time I've lost 2.1 pounds (that's as of this morning). It's better than nothing, but dang it, I'm working my rear off...and apparently not literally. But I'm happy it's going down. I've been stuck around the same number for months and months and I'm ready to never see that number again.

When I run tonight it will be my 28th day in a row. I'm up to 2 1/4 miles a day. For some reason the first mile or so kills me, then after that I'm just fine. So I just have to push through that mile because I know I'll be fine after that.

Background problem

My background was from Cutest Blog on the Block and apparently they've put too much on their Photobucket. I'm working on fixing it. Sorry for the ugly Photobucket thing in the middle of my page. Gah!

***UPDATE***
I couldn't find my old background on their site anymore. :( So I chose one of the Valentine ones. I'm not sure how long it will work for. Now I'm nervous.
