McFatty Monday: Late Edition

Tom, Ellie, and I had the opportunity to head out for a week of sun and surf in beautiful Melbourne Beach, FL and we just got back last night, so this post is a bit tardy. For a vacation week, I did pretty well - I basically maintained last week's loss. I'm a little bummed, I was hoping to see another loss, especially since I'm soooo close to my next goal, but it's OK. I still worked out with my 30 Day Shred DVD every single day, and I tried to be super active with walks, bike rides, and swimming. And while I definitely did cheat, I only allowed myself one cheat per day, and I tried to continue being aware of my total calorie intake.

While we were down there, I completed Level 2 of the Shred and moved onto Level 3. It's definitely true what I've heard - the switch to Level 3 is easier than moving from Level 1 to Level 2. Level 2 is my favorite workout, Level 3 includes a lot of jump training, which is really hard on the knees. However, I'm sticking with it and my last day with this DVD is less than a week away! Then I'll move to a running program with Level 2 of the Shred on the off days. I bought a dress for Ellie's baptism in about a month that is one size too small (they only had it in 3 sizes in the color I loved, so I decided to take a gamble), so I'm really hoping that with discipline, I'll be able to wear it.

Starting weight: 182.7lbs
Current weight: 165.9lbs
This week's loss: +.3lbs
Total loss: 16.8lbs

Only 35.9lbs to goal!
