Weigh-in-Wednesday

So today was my week 3 weigh-in. I have been doing my official weigh-ins through my biggest loser Wii game, which means my wii balance board has been my scale. I have also been weighing myself on my regular scale a couple of times a week. My regular scale is always a couple of pounds lower than the balance board and also lower than the Dr's scale (don't you just hate that) so I go off of the wii balance board for my official weigh-ins. So today when the wii balance board said I weighed in at 200, for a minor loss of one pound I was surprised because my bathroom scale was reading a 2 lb loss. I ended up re-synching up the balance board and weighing myself two more times. Those two times it measured at 199 for a 2lb loss! So that is my official weigh-in. I now am out of the 200's. I'm happy to be out of the 200's for sure, but will feel a lot better when I am out of the 190's. I'm not sure how long I was in the 200's but it wasn't very long. In fact, that is probably what got me into gear to lose weight. I do know I was too satisfied for a long time to be in the 190's so getting into the 180's will be a really happy day for me! Obviously, I know it is going to take a month or so to do that so I will remember to be patient. I fully expect to hit the -10 lbs next week and earn my 10 itune downloads!

Today, I had to deliver some fliers in my neighborhood so I decided to skip the treadmill this morning and just go on a walk outside after I delivered the fliers. I knew it would be chilly (32 degrees) but I didn't expect it to be snowing! When I saw that it was snowing (more like a flurry) I was tempted not to do it. But the fliers had to be delivered no matter what and I was already going to be wet so I did it. It felt great to be outside. I probably did not run as much as I do on my treadmill because there are some hills in my neighborhood and I have not been using the incline on my treadmill as much as I should. It will be interesting to see how I do once the weather gets nicer and I can walk/run outside all the time. I seem to have a hard time setting a good pace outside, I guess that will take practice. Have a good day everybody!
