Recap in Pictures and Words.

Last week was a great one exercise wise. I attempted my first 10K! It was fantastic and I finished it in 1hr 51mins. As I screamed "yes!" at the gym a few people actually congratulated me for achieving such a feat. :-).

I did it! 1hr 51mins

Then on Saturday I did a 5K in 52minutes; which is an improvement from 54 minutes. It felt really good to be jogging for 20 minutes straight.

Me getting ready to take a shower after my 5k.

The sad part is that I haven't been eating so well. To top it all I had severe diarrhea on Saturday and Sunday :-(
Guess that was my body's way of getting rid of all the bad stuff and sending me a message. This week will be better.

Started the day with a 5K walk/jog and some ab/arm exercises. Happy Monday to you all. Don't forget to exercise today :-)

Weigh In - Week 9

Previous  weight - 202.6lbs

This week's weight - 201.8lbs

A loss of 0.8lbs these last two weeks? Perhaps I gained weight last week without knowing it. Or, did I maintain? Anyways, enough of the questions. I lost weight and that is what is important. Besides, I had a non scale victory yesterday. I was able to zip up and button a pair of jeans that could not go past my thighs last year. I still need to lose a couple of pounds so that it fits perfectly as it is tight but, it fits!!!

I can't believe I am two pounds away from Onederland. I hope to see at least a 199 point something when I check the scales next week. Realistic goal right? Hope your weigh ins are better than mine.

:-)

Non Scale Victory!

Ok! This one is going to be really short. Three great things happened today.

1. My trainer said I was shrinking. Yayy!
2. A friend I haven't seen in months saw me and the first thing he said was "Enyonam, you have lost weight" Double Yayy!
3. A colleague who never compliments anyone actually called me "HOT". Dayum! That definitly calls for a YAYYYYYY!

I love the fact that the hard work is paying off. I was worried when my weight didn't seem to move. Guess I'm gaining muscle now. :-)
