No, that is not my locker combination....it's my big 'ol measurements as of yesterday. I decided to track my inches as well as my weight to see the big picture of what's really going on. I noticed that my face and neck were slimming out a bit and my body seemed to be looking a little different despite not losing much weight so Greg suggested I track inches too. This idea was both good and bad. Good in that I can tell when I'm slimming out but bad because I had no idea that the inner-tube surrounding my belly is 2 inches bigger than my bowling-ball boobs. Yikes.

New goal: make inner-tube smaller than boobs.

On a brighter note did workout yesterday and will be back at it again tonight. I've done 30 minutes of cardio again but threw in some sit-ups and weights yesterday. Greg (my wanna-be personal trainer) told me to do 30 sit ups (not crunches) and I made it to 27. Tonight it's 30. The Biggest Loser motivated me as usual but this time gave me another idea. Jillian suggests you pre-package your own lunches/snacks in zip-lock bags in the fridge so that you can easily eat the right portion size and calories. I might try doing that for work-days to avoid the impulse fast food.

Weight today: 171
Workout: will probably do 30 - 45 minutes
Calorie intake: hmmm...venti caramel machiatto? Oopsie. Muffin? Oopsie.
Feeling: generally still inspired.
