Non Scale Victories This Week

During last night's LIIFT 4 Shoulders workout, I saw an improvement over last weeks shoulder presses.  I was unable to do the 2nd and 3rd sets last week overhead after about 3-4 presses.  My left shoulder would literally fall like I'd lost all muscle control with 10 lb weights.  Yesterday I used the same 10 lbs and it wasn't until the 7th rep on the second set that I started to feel bad fatigue but pushed through.  On the third set my shoulders were shot but I was still able to push overhead even if slower.  I pushed to fatigue but didn't have that dangerous muscle drop I had before. The zinnias I grew from seed are mostly in full bloom and I took some pics before cutting some to put in a little vase.

Late Weigh In

Sorry for the late weigh in, my computer decided to die so the Mr has been furiously working for 2 days to get things back to normal.  So props to the man for recovering all of my files when it looked like that wasn't going to be a possibility.

Oh yeah, my weigh in...5 pounds bee-otches!  WOOT!  For those keeping track that's 9 lbs in 2 weeks.  I hate that I had to cut calories to get that but right now I don't care.  Last week I was going to get all philsophical about how I reached 325 which was the weight I was in Hawaii with friends in 2002 but I passed that by by 2 pounds.  Okay so maybe when I hit my wedding weight of 319, nope..passed that by a pound yesterday.  DARN!  Besides, getting back to a wedding weight of 319 isn't exactly what every gal dreams about but I suppose when you started at 494, yeah, you'll totally take that.  So I'm at 176 pounds lost.  I'll so take that.  I'd love to be able to lose another 4 lbs sooner than late to reach 180 because that just seems so in reach of that 200 lb mark.  I'm not expecting much on the scale this week though because after 2 big drops like that, my body is likely to wave the white flag this week.  I'm still going to follow the plan though and hope for the best. 

Thanks for hanging in with me!  Hope everyone is ready for kick butt week!

    YAY! How exciting!
    I was actually wondering where you were yesterday since I knew it was weigh in day, and I wanted to see how you did. Glad you get the computer going again without losing anything.

    Maybe your body will surprise you this week and decide it wants be down 200 pounds. Good luck!
