Day 71... Jeans and comments... great motivators

Today seems to be the opposite of yesterday... eating not so good, water intake down but I had a pretty good workout.

So today I was craving Jimmie Johns so I had half of their Beach Club sandwich I will have the rest for dinner tonight... it was wonderful. Probably shouldn't of had it though... I'm pretty much stalled on the weight loss. I need to start eating healthy again. I am 3 bottles away from a gallon and half for the day.

I had a pretty good workout today... cut a little short though because of a meeting I had to attend but still a good workout. I did 10 minutes on the elliptical at level 18. Then did 4 sets of 12 on the weighted ab machine, calf raise machine, lower back extension machine, chest press and tricep dip machine. I also did 3 sets of planks for as long as I could go. Also did 100 crunches on the crunch  machine. Then I did 35 minutes on the treadmill at 3.7 speed. I upped the level to 4 on the treadmill... it felt good to push myself even if it was a small amount. I believe tomorrow is upper body... unsure though we are switching things up with my strength training... I'm going to start using the machines at the gym instead of working out at home. That will also make it possible to get in some cardio everyday. :)

Today I decided it was time to bring out the size 14 jeans. :) They fit and I was able to wear them. Until I get down to where the size 14 jeans aren't so tight I will be wearing both size 16 and size 14 jeans. Then I will decide if I want to buy more size 14 jeans or stick with the 1 pair I have. I plan on buying a pair of size 12 jeans so that I can see the changes in my lower body.

So I went to the doctor today for my annual checkup... both the assistant and the doctor commented on how much weight I have lost. The doctor even called me inspiring. :)

Two great motivators today... size 14 jeans and having 2 people comment on my weight loss. :)

Let the lbs melt!!!
