I lost a half a pound this week. Not bad. I want to celebrate the small victories too. I'm glad I'm still on the decline. I'm glad also that I said no to cake at yesterday's office baby shower. I'm also staying clear from the chocolate plate in my coworker's office. What I am splurging on are lollipops left over from Valentine's Day. They are so delicious ad sugary. There's a place for many of them at my house by the door to go outside, so I've been grabbing one as I leave. I wonder if this is what is halting me form getting to the 1-2 pounds a week I am hoping for. I should take them to the office and leave them in the kitchen. The volunteers will take free stuff. They usually do.
I also miss exercising. Since I'm nursing an injury, I stopped doing my morning strength training. I'm not complaining per se. I just want to be honest with myself. I can't wait to be able to go back to waking up and working on my muscles. Instead of weights or bicycle crunches or leg raises or whatever I do in the morning, I'm doing my occupational therapy when I awaken. It takes up time and it's painful but worthwhile. The numbness is still present but not as acute.
I noticed on my weight loss chart that if I get down to 151 pounds the weight loss line will change from yellow to green. I so wanna use this as motivation. That's only 3 pounds away! I wonder what's after green. I guess I can only find out as I lost more weight! Green, get ready for me!
