Did I Break 200 lbs?

YES!!!

And, yes, it is true that I did the cabbage patch in the lobby of the medical office! I guess discrete is not exactly my middle name!

For the first time in almost a decade, I am below 200 pounds! The Tanita scale at Kaiser stopped at 197.5! Usually it taunts me by pausing...then adding two pounds! Not so this week!

So here is the kicker...I actually lost 4 pounds of fat last week, but I gained a pound of water---so that is even better news! In my mind, the fat loss is so much more important that the actual number of pounds lost! So far, I have lost 18.5 of just FAT. Since fat mass puts soooooo much pressure on my knees (three times as much as anywhere else), my knees think I have lost 55.5 pounds. Ahhhh knees, I knew you were my favorite part of my body for a reason!

Challenges this week:

1)Staff Appreciation Day: FREE YUMMY FOOD ALL DAY AT WORK!
2)Remodeling: My building is remodeling the leasing officeand GYM! Working out is a challenge!
3) I made Coq a Vin on Friday--apparently it was delicious....sigh....

So, my goal for the week: 194.5
My outward goal: 160
My inward goal: self discovery, getting rid of the batwings, oh and of course! World Peace!

See you guys next Thursday!
