Honestly, I feel like I somehow cheated the scale this week. There were a couple of instances where I ate too much of bad things (all out at restaurants, of course--they'll get ya every time), plus I didn't exercise as much (only three days).
But I'm taking my loss as a big motivator to stay strong this week, avoiding crappy choices at restaurants and pushing myself to exercise at night. I'm also pleased that I finally fit into a pair of size 14 pants my mom gave me a while ago (she's too skinny for them now). When I first tried them on two months ago, they wouldn't even button. Now, they're snug but they look pretty good!
Another good thing: I am now using my new digital blood pressure monitor to check my BP daily (it's perfect, by the way). As someone with chronic hypertension, I really should have been doing this for years--but I didn't. The manual monitors are such a pain, and I just didn't make it a priority. Now I can just slap on the cuff, push a button and watch TV while I wait to see what my BP is. My doctor will be glad.
As for Mr., I still think he needs the kick in the butt of a good personal trainer, but we haven't connected with one yet. I'm working on it though. Too bad Bob Harper from the Biggest Loser isn't available--he'd be perfect!

I love that show, but I'd like Jillian to kick my butt. I love how she stands on people when they do their squats! LOL
Doug and I are still on our anti-restaurant kick. I just don't trust myself yet. And bonus, we're saving money just in case the great crash of 08 really does happen.
Great job guys - I'd say keep it up, but I know you will.
Good job. A WW leader once told me that while she doesn't condone going off plan, mixing it up sometimes fools your metabolism - a few more calories here or there and then a few less on other days. Sounded reasonable to me!
I can't stand Jillian from Biggest Loser. She is a crazy bitch.
Good job this week, Mr and Mrs!
Off topic - sort of. Just wanted to say how great you look! You are really kicking weightloss in the butt.
