September 2013
It's harder and harder to post when I feel like there is less progress. Trying to stay optimistic still.

The kids started back in school just recently and I'm trying to hit the gym every week day now. MWF cardio+strength training and TTh just cardio. I really want to get down to 130 or even 125!

Oops! I'm a bit behind!

Some changes--some good and some a little higher. I haven't lost as much weight as I've wanted, but it's been a month of Vacations. Also it IS down so that is still progress. I'm just keeping doing what I'm doing.

I'm on a roll--don't stop me now!
Though I did/do have the flu so I haven't eaten anything or drank really in 24ish hours. So perhaps the weight loss isn't really so dramatic.

Parenthesis are last month; brackets are from the start.:
156.8 lbs (163.6) [177] total loss= 21.2 lbs
BMI 28.7 (29.9)[32]

At one point in the I got as low as 155 (28.3 BMI). But I have had some setbacks. I had my gall bladder taken out which has thrown me a bit off. I had to restart the medication as it made me too sick to take the full dose. I have just now arrived at the full dosage again. So, I hope to be back in progress. We also recently got a gym membership which I hope will really help to make the measurements smaller or at least make me visually tighter/smaller. All in all, good work Brittany.
Also--apparently my actual highest was 177, according to the doctor's office--so note the change in that.

Progress is Progress (May)
Parenthesis are last week; brackets are from the start.:
163.6 lbs (166) [175]
BMI 29.9 (30.4)[32]
Chest Measurement- 38(38) [42]
Waist Measurement- 32(33.5) [36]
Hips: 39.5(39.5) [41.5]
Neck: 14(14) [14]
Arm: 13(13) [13.5]
Thigh:24 (24) [25.5]
So, not a whole lot has changed, but for my BMI I'm not longer considered "obese". Now I've fallen into the overweight category! *Celebrates*
And I think I"ve been measuring my bust differently. I think it may actually be 40 and not 38 because I realized I was measuring the wrong part--but that's still progress.

New Meds
On April 4 I started new medication. It's called victoza. On April 5th I had a rotten awful day. It was horrible. I had taken too much. The medication must be eased into. Otherwise it causes rotten awful nausea. So I backed off and have been working my way up. It's working really well.
One of the side effects is that it helps you to feel fuller sooner, or a lack of appetite. I've really noticed this. Since taking the new meds here are the new stats--Parenthesis are last week; brackets are from the start.:
166 lbs (170.2) [175]
BMI 30.4 (31.1)[32]
Chest Measurement- 38(41) [42]
Waist Measurement- 33.5(34) [36]
Hips: 39.5(41) [41.5]
Neck: 14(14.25) [14]
Arm: 13(14) [13.5]
Thigh:24 (24.25) [25.5]
Not bad, I say. I take the medication in the evening so it will be "strongest" when I want to do those late night snackings. It seems to help with that.
