JaimieLBoles's Journal, 07 May 2015

More than weight, I am after lost inches, though I would prefer to lose at least ten, if not twenty, pounds this summer.

Starting measurements as of May 2nd:
Bust: 35.5"
Waist: 29"
Hips: 39"
Butt: 42" (going from memory and that measurement may not be accurate)

Goal Measurements:
Bust: 35.5"
Waist: 26"
Hips: 35"
Butt: 40" (not as concerned with this measurement, I like having a big butt and I am sure that it will tone and slim accordingly with the measurements above)

I would like to be and stay between 140-150 lbs, but really, I could stay 160 if it was a solid muscular, toned, fit 160 that fit within the measurements above.

I am several days into my new routine and sticking with it pretty well. I have adapted to my new work and schedule situation and have developed a desk workout routine including tricep dips, desk push-ups, leg lifts, v-crunches, plie squats, and stretches. I am also doing my 200 sit-up challenge again which I did successfully two years ago. Did 50 last night, 12 of which were criss-cross sit-ups to work the sides more - and that was only day two of 3 day/week six week challenge. That with resistance band workouts in the evening, walking with ankle weights on and contracting my stomach muscles the entire time, and eating less/healthier I am hoping will put me back on track to my healthy life style goals.
160.0 lb Lost so far: 40.0 lb.    Still to go: 10.0 lb.    Diet followed reasonably well.

Hi Jaimie, congratulations on your success so far. You might be interested in a documentary I saw a couple of weeks ago called "Fed Up". They say while diet and exercise will help, and is necessary for a healthy body and mind, they blame weight gain on sugar. If you subscribe to netflix you can stream it there.

@pattio48 thank you for the suggestion! I have had that on my "to watch" list for a while. I find the concept really interesting because while the facts definitely support that, and as someone who has often battled addiction to sugar, my first encounter with abusing sugar in my diet actually led to me dropping weight as a child and winding up on life support due to basically starving because I was secretly throwing away my food and living off of sugar. So I think it's something about sugar as a piece of the diet that makes the effect be weight gain. Sugar on it's own will trick your body into thinking it's full and has fuel when in fact you are starving. Goodness knows though, I consider it truly dangerous as it is in fact addictive and it's added to EVERYTHING in this country. I will definitely have to watch that documentary soon. :)

Wow, you should've been in the movie. One thing I really found interesting was the reason there is no % of daily value listed on nutritional information on any product is the sugar lobby. Because if this was listed then everyone would know that one soda is 220% of the daily recommended allowance.
