Week 3....

Here's the update...

Most importantly and excitingly...

I WONt this week in the biggest loser contest we are in with 4 of our friends(goes Jan thru April); based on the last 2 weeks percentage weight lost. I have NEVER WON and am usually in the bottom 2 or 3. I even beat Travis out, but it was EXTREMELY close. The prize..$10. Honestly, though, I think I am more excited about just doing it!

Travis and I started looking at free weights. After this week is over, we are going to start Jorge's other program, which is basically the exact same, just using weights. I was quite impressed (and shocked), for my medium weight, I can do 8 lbs. My other 2 weights are 5lbs and 10lbs. I was worried that I would need like 2, 5, and 8. I found weight pairs of the exact 3 weights I need on KSL in Midvale. We are planining to leave a little early and get them before going to Grandma's later.

Today, we went to Costco and got more frozen strawberries for my morning smoothies; which I am absolutely loving! Costco had their women's swimming suits out-one piece and two piece. I told Trav that when I get this weight off and have a rocking, hot body, I am TOTALLY buying a hot two-piece. We both laughed, but it's nice to dream and hope.


Down to 213 lbs.

Success this week:
Only ate salad and half my mini-pizza from Pizza factory on Thursday; took the rest home in a to-go box.
Turned down cupcakes at Relief Society Enrichment because I had already had my treat for the day.
Went all but one day, skipping hitting the boss's chocolate drawer for a mini-chocolate treat

Challenges:

Only made it to the gym 2x this week due to a huge blister on my left big toe; I think it's finally healed. I went walking for 2-2 1/2 miles with Dennise and Travis on Monday.  I also played "Just Dance" on the "Just Sweatin" mode for 45 minutes today.


Other news...
I finished everything for my first two weeks of online classes. The assignments and everything were not bad at all. I was able to get almost everything done on Tuesday night while Travis was at mutual. So, I am thinking that is my plan and then start the next week's stuff on Saturday.
