May Your Way Weigh-in #1

I started the May Your Way challenge with the Sisterhood of the shrinking jeans on Sunday, May 1. Today is the first weigh-in and I was excited to step on the scale! Even though it had only been a few day, I was feeling good. I've been logging in my food intake and kept active, I knew there would already be a loss!

My goals for this challenge are going well. It is a busy time of year, but I am determined to get the exercise in! My husband was scheduled to be on evenings this week, so I felt I would have the time to go to the gym after work before having to be home to let the dog out. Monday, I screwed up and didn't take my clothes to work, by the time I got home, we got involved in things and I felt that I couldn't abandon my hubby with all the kids after staying home all day with the 3 year old (we have daycare issues this week). Tuesday, I spent all morning proctoring an AP Computer Science exam. Proctors are not allowed to do anything but watch the kids take the exam; it is soooo boring. So, I wore comfortable clothes, my sneakers, downloaded a pedometer app, and just paced around the room for most of the test. I managed to walk over 6000 steps just during testing! I was able to squeeze in some time in the gym after work as well. My body did not enjoy running after weeks of vacation. It has been screaming at me all day today!

I am sore today, and the schedule does not allow me time at the gym. However, I walked during my AP proctoring again today, despite my feet being angry! Hoping to get to the gym tomorrow after work! Once I get back into my routine, things will be much better!

Here are my weekly numbers:



Starting weight...........................................187.2
Challenge starting weight..........................186.6
This week....................................................183.4
Loss..................................................................3.2
Challenge loss.................................................3.2

Total Loss.......................................................3.8
