After my hike with Devonay on Sunday, my knees haven't been the same. I keep hoping every morning that they will feel fine, but alas they still feel really tight. To top that off I started my period Saturday night...no wonder I felt so bloated! So Monday and Tuesday I did my core exercises, I can do a ton of sit-ups now... without loosing steam.
Food was an issue for for a few days, I was craving chocolate. I made Hope some gluten free brownies, I do hope she got a few! :-( But beyond that I did okay. No big portions at meals, not a bunch of snacking. I still try to eat my meals early in the evening. I've been getting used to the feeling of being hungry when I finally get to bed. It feels good to feel hungry, I know I'm not stuffing my face!
More later...

Tough Beginning! The dreaded photo op!
Okay, first thing first, I had Steve take pictures of me in a tight shirt and shorts. That was hard, it became apparent right away I have been in denial for sometime. It is killing me to have to post them right here for all to see!!!
Next, I weighed myself, ah...umm...yeah... do I have to say? Honesty!! Okay, I weighed in at a whopping 164, ouch! I knew I should never have taken the scale out of my bathroom! But now everyone knows. It's all down hill form here, right?
Then I went and got my sewing measurement tape and started measuring the bod!
Neck -12"
Arms - 12.75
Breast - 41.50
Waist - 35
Tummy - 40.5
Butt - 41.5
Thigh - 23
No wonder I just sort of look like a tube, not much variation in the sizes.
My plan is to work really hard on taking the fat off the areas that don't need it and build up muscles where I do! So, how am I going to do this? First cut out calories, I'm not going to do anything drastic, but those mid-morning snacks and late afternoon snacks have got to be either removed or a better food choice to replace the junk food.
I want to post each day what I ate the day before, it might be a bit of a bore for some of you, but it will allow me to see where I'm cheating and hopefully some of you will join me in this and post your own stats and what your doing to get in shape.
It's 4pm and I'm a bit hungry, this is the hard time of day for me, I like to snack as I prepare dinner, so please when you think of me, send up a little prayer for me!
Till tomorrow, keep the Lord close!
