Once again, I have cheated a little. I caught the flu. Yes, it's true - I did it on purpose just to lose weight faster. I love nothing more than record-breaking headaches and fevers with chills. Oh, and also tasting my food twice - once going down and again coming back up. YUMMY!
Now, on a serious note. I have continued working out and drinking lots of water and watching what I eat, but honestly, not with the help of the Asian slimming pills. I simply forgot to take them for a few days and I found that, amazingly, I stuck to my regular routine of drinking lots of water and hardly eating and exercising. I didn't have as much energy, but it looks like I'm officially forming some habits that will stay for life. YAY!
I do have new stats for ya'. I'll have to include another picture, but not until I'm officially over this horrid flu.
Last time I posted I was:
151 lbs.
Arms: 11"
Waist: 33.5"
Hips: 41"
Thighs: 22.5"
This morning my stats were:
147 lbs. (this might go up a bit once I start feeling well enough to keep food down - before the flu I was 149, but I like 147 better, so I'm posting it!)
Arms: 10.5"
Waist: 32"
Hips: 40"
Thighs: 22"
My secret weapon: strapping my 18-pound son to me, pushing my 36 lb. and 27 lb. daughters in a double stroller and going on a 1 1/2 hour walk! It's killer, but my buns and thighs are shaping up nicely and I'm losing weight and feeling great!
Thighs from 1 1/2 weeks ago.
Thighs today. The difference is subtle, but can you see it? It's happening! I owe it to my Japanese slimming pills that help me keep my appetite under maximum control, my Skechers, my husband who bought me the Skechers and will watch the kids ANY TIME so I can go walking, AND lent me his Zune with like 50 million tunes so I could have some extra UMPH in my walk, and my friend, Jenn, who keeps me running alongside her, panting for breath, trying to keep up.
