Judgment Day.
Weight lost: 1 pound. ONE. Don't even get me started.
Inches lost:
Neck: -0.25"
Bust: -1.5"
Upper Arms: -1.25" EACH!!!
Waist: -1.5" BOOOYAAAAH!!!
Hips: -1"
Thighs: -0.5" each
Calves: -0.5" each
Total: 8.75"
So, I don't really understand how ONE POUND lost can translate into almost NINE INCHES off my body, but I'll take it.
I honestly want the scale to move. I admit this wholeheartedly. However, I bought jeans two sizes smaller than the last pair I purchased at the end of summer. TWO SIZES!! That's a NSV I can really enjoy! :D So...I don't know. I know I could have done much better with food this month. I was definitely on autopilot for nearly 3/4 of the month...there, I said it. The changes in my body are probably largely due to increased protein combined with continued running. It wouldn't be fair for me to rage against my body at this point, since I KNOW how I ate, and it wasn't in a very controlled manner. My choices, my responsibility, and the numbers show it.
Theoretically, my body SHOULD be primed for dropping pounds now, after a month of muscle building and plenteous calories, as my metabolism should be running high. Right? Right...
"I want a life that sizzles and pops and makes me laugh out loud. And I
don't want to get to the end, or to tomorrow, even, and realize that my
life is a collection of meetings and pop cans and errands and receipts
and dirty dishes. I want to eat cold tangerines and sing loud in the car
with the windows open and wear pink shoes and stay up all night
laughing and paint my walls the exact color of the sky right now. I want
to sleep hard on clean white sheets and throw parties and eat ripe
tomatoes and read books so good they make me jump up and down, and
I want my everyday to make God belly laugh, glad He gave life to
someone who loves the gift." --Shauna Neiquist
