Well, I did not exercise nearly as much as I had hoped I would and I wasn't perfect in my eating...Between babysitting, the beginning of a head cold, trying to pack, homework, getting together with family for a cook out, and life in general-I worried what the scale would say. BUT I STILL LOST 5 POUNDS!!!!! I am a relieved! Now on to the dreaded week two. On the show people have a harder time and so do I! Usually the first week of a diet I lose a lot and then that is it for results because my hormones kick in and put on the breaks. So right now I am happy with 5 pounds. This week is the big push!
Thank you all for your support and tips! Aaron kept reminding me that people would be checking in so I better get to exercising. By the way Aaron lost 2 pounds. Not that this is a competition...BUT I WON WEEK ONE!!! Just kidding (kind of...) He will reach his goal (I have way more to lose) way before I do though so I better not talk too much trash!
I am going to really kick it in to high gear this week. I am hoping the rain will slow down enough that I can put some miles in. So is poor Emily! A week of rain is cramping our walk schedule. Today we are walking 2 miles in the rain if we have to! I am also going to do Wii Fit at least 30 minutes a day. I did it last night and the time flies. I love the step aerobics and hula hoop. Who knew a video game could get your heart rate up so much! I love it! I am working on knocking everyone in my family out of the top 10 on advance step. I think Aaron still holds 5th place and maybe another spot. Not for long...
Way to go, Carrie! 5 lbs is fantastic! Can't wait to hear how next week goes!
ReplyDeleteGreat job. You still haven't posted any pictures of Jake's baptism.
ReplyDeleteI still don't have pictures of Jake's baptism to post!
ReplyDeleteOkay, Carrie, I think I have it right this time.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on your 5 pounds. Now...5 lbs next week. You can do it.. I just got done watching Biggest Loser and they broke the record for total loses for week 2 and I know you can too.
Oh, I lost 3.5 lbs this week but I wouldn't recomment it. I had to have a colonscopy today so spent quite a bit of time drinking 16 day doses in about 3 hours yesterday and then sitting...you know where most of the night.
I have my physical this Friday and hoping to be able to keep that amount off until then. Cross your fingers. My Wii told me I shouldn't be trying to lose so much weight so quickly. Little does it know. It a couple of days it will be asking me why I put so much back on.
But, seriously, Carrie keep up the good work. When you get here I'll be exercising and dieting with you.
I love you.
Mom
Congrats!!! 5 pounds is awesome! I finally figured out why I couldn't see your post...hopefully I have taken care of the problem (I suddenly feel so computer illiterate! Next thing I know I will have to be asking my kiddos how to make the computer work.) Anyway, we are thinking about you and praying for you!

good job. I knew you could do it. I was proud of you on Sat at the cookout. This week will be harder, but you can win just like the contestents did. Proud of you.
