Milestone 30

Week 3 finished with the BodyMedia Fit Armband and loving it more each day, each week.  The only down side.  Is that I keep trying to test it.  So I have been on the scale almost daily.  3 weeks in on the the armband and I KNOW it works.  No more being silly.

So, it seems that the spring weather has finally hit and this is where my journey becomes difficult.  When the nice weather hits.  I would much rather be on a patio, enjoying a beer or two.  Would have loved to do that today.  Then I went....NOPE!  Having wings at the ever Famous Anchor Bar on Thursday.  Girls night on Friday, which means big splurge!!!!

I really only allow 1 splurge a week.  It helps me keep on track.  It also depends on my work week and how active I am.  The more I walk at work, the more I burn.

So beyond my final goal.  I have another.  Some friends and I are going to Mexico this fall.  I would like to wear a bikini.  Its not a numbers goal.  But its a goal all the same.

As for this week's progress.  I am down 3.2 Pounds this week for a total so far of 31.6.  Woo Hoo!  I am very happy this morning!

Till next week.  Have a good week, this week.

Be kind!

The times you like being a loser!

Another week has passed and I am quite happy to say the least.  I had about 2.5 to 3 splurge days in the last week.  Very unusual!!!!  I usually allow for one day and get right back on track again.

Last Wednesday was a splurge day and so was Friday and Saturday.  However,  Last Friday especially, I did do a lot of walking.  With that being said.  I still managed to lose 1.4 pounds this week.  After my splurges.  I would have been happy to remain the same as last week. So,  I will happily take that 1.4.   Taking my total now 28.4 lost.

At one point this week I was up 2 pounds.  I know your body can fluctuate 2 pounds any given day.  But considering the splurges.  I figured this was quite accurate.

I made sure to keep on track the rest of the week.  Wear my BodyMedia armband.  And burn a few more calories where I could.

Week 2 with the new device and still LOVING it!  One of the greatest inventions I must say.  A couple other people on their own journey have received one as well and loving it as much as I am.  So with that said.  If you need the link to order, (You will get 15% off through my link) please let me know.

Have a great week, this week.  Be Kind!

Cheers!

A New Tool to Help in the Journey

Just finished my first full week with my new gadget.  And I LOVE it!  If you are a fan of The Biggest Loser like I am.  Then you will have noticed the armband that they wear while on the ranch.  Most of the contestants continue to use it long after leaving the ranch as well.  It helps keep them accountable and on track.  Whether it's to lose or maintain.

I have looked at the BodyMedia FIT armband and was quite interested in how it worked.  One of the hardest things to gauge is how many calories you burn in a day.  The armband does this for you.  I use mine with My Fitness Pal to log all the food/calories I consume.  I track my water as well.  And the armband does the rest.  There are four sensors that help determine your sleep patterns.  How many calories you burn in a day.  How many steps you walk.  Etc.  This will help you 24/7.

This is considered a medical device in the states and there are numerous studies posted on the BodyMedia site.  Have a visit and check it out along with the many testimonials.  Like I said.  I have only been using it a week and I LOVE IT!

Please follow the link below to order.

I have lost 2 pounds this week!  Woo Hoo!  Total of 27 Pounds so far.  I am really happy with this new device and I think it will be the key to my success.

As for today.  It is a hard one for me.  My dad died 10 years ago today.  So I guarantee I will be off track a little today.  But get right back to it tomorrow.

Till Next Time.  Be kind!

Cheers!
