295.2 - Weekly Report.... Back In The Game!

     Well, I did it, I stuck to all of my goals that I set last week, and it paid off. I lost 3 pounds this week and am back to being happy about it. Funny how a 1.4 pound difference (from last week) can be such a big deal in my head, but it is.
     My 5 day Zumba challenge is going well and today will complete 5 days, then I get a rest. Thank heaven because I am sore! It wasn't as hard as I thought it would be though, taking the initiative was the hardest part. Day 4 was weird because my muscles were the sorest they had been all week but, I had more vigor in my routine. I am definitely feeling it this morning. It feels good!! Tomorrow I will be going on a fishing trip with Daniel (big surprise lol) but we are going somewhere new and there is supposed to be a bit of hiking involved. I pray that my tired muscles won't protest ha ha. This 5 day work out challenge was amazing and I am going to continue it, thank you for the inspiration spunkysuzi ! Anybody else wanna take the challenge?
     The illusive picture (for my measurements) is coming I swear... Excuses, excuses, I know, but I can not locate my tripod so I will need Daniel to take them for me. It will be up this weekend, I must not chicken out! In the meantime, I did find this cool website where you can create a virtual you, it is kind of funny. Other than taking in account for saggy skin it is pretty accurate. It also helped me to put into perspective that I am no longer the girl who started this journey, often times in my minds eye I still see her.
Current                                Goal
My Virtual Model
Like I said, other than putting into account my loose skin, pretty accurate, and fun to create. I wish that I had saved the site because now I can not remember where exactly I got it. If you type in Virtual Weight Loss, there are several different places you can do your own.

Have A Great Weekend Everyone!!

  1. That's great Brandie! Well done for meeting all your goals, all your hard work is well and truly paying off. I bet you're looking forward to a wee break from your zumba challange- you've earned it! The virtual image is a great idea, I'm glad it's helping put the changes you've made into perspective for you. I think I might go and do one myself now! :)

  2. I'm so glad you joined in this weeks challenge! I have so far completed 4 days and tomorrow should make 5 :)

    I think this weeks goal is going to be the working out plus keeping up on drinking my water.

    I'm so glad you had a great week.

    1. Suzi, Thank you for the comment. It was a lot of fun. I had to put doing another challenge off for a minute, my ankle is not happy. I may try to start today if all goes well. Good luck on your challenge, you will do great!
