Weigh in #3

I was nervous to step on the scale this morning. I feel fatter. Much to my surprise I didn't gain any weight. In fact I actually lost 1 lb. It's another pound in the right direction. I have to say that I'm disappointed it wasn't more, even though I wasn't expecting it. I guess I was hoping my 3 lb. a week streak would continue. I worked harder last week than the previous two. One pound makes me worry that I'm hitting a wall. It brings back all the fears of, "will it really work? Is this even possible?" I probably put on a pound eating breakfast. With three pounds a week I start thinking where I'll be in a few weeks, "by the end of the month I could be at my pre-Wrigley weight" and such. One pound makes my weight loss goal seem an eternity away. Still, its another pound down. I should be grateful for that. I need to own it. That's 7 lbs. in 3 weeks. Stuart says that's good. And it is. 1-2 pounds a weeks is safe, healthy, and more likely to be long term weight loss. I'm one pound closer to my goal.

I went to a one hour Zumba class for UVMOM's night out. It was really fun! It's suppose to be low impact for your knees and really work your core. There wasn't a lot of jumping or bouncing, but there was a good amount of twisting and side to side. I had to be careful. I do worry about my knees a little. I would like to do it every week. I also did a lot of cleaning on the main floor today. I need to work on the diet. I need more fruits and veggies.
