The Skinny on Me
I'm just a girl (well, 22-year-old girl) trying to find my happiness through running and healthy eating.
Height: 5'7"
Starting Weight: 176 lbs
Current Weight: 166.9
Goal Weight #1: 161 lbs (-15)
Goal Weight #2: 151 lbs (-25)
Although I did weigh in last week, I was too discouraged to post it. I gain an insignificant amount of weight (as in a little over a pound). To me, though, it seemed like a ton.
You get like that, dear reader, don’t you?
WIW: Feb 1, 2012
- SW: 176
- LWIW: 166.4
- CW: 163.1
- Difference: -3.3 lbs.
- Total WL: -12.9 lbs.
I was blown away by that number this morning. It’s safe to say I was not expecting 3.3 lbs to magically be gone.
To top that off, I went for a run today too! (how awesome am I?). Unfortunately, my toe is hurting badly again (it may be a little infected). Meaning, I probably shouldn’t have run tonight. :-/
Oh and by the way, I totally failed at the month challenge. Oops.
January Recap
- Jan 1, 2012 (er… Jan. 2): 169.1 lbs
- Feb. 1, 2012: 163.1
- Total Jan. WL: 6.0 lbs
Six pounds? I’ll take it! To recap, I lost about two pounds in November and about five pounds in December. Though I’m not losing 10+ pounds a month, that’s perfectly all right with me. Slow and steady. I’d rather lose it slowly than continue down the lose/gain cycle.
January Goals
Looking back, it doesn’t look like I set any … oops.
February Goals
- Continue cooking one new recipe a week
- Complete weeks 3-7 of the half-marathon training program
- Lose 5 pounds (I wanna see 150’s dammit!)
- Now that I’m employed (i.e., earning money), register/run 5k
- Remember my 2-drink rule!
