Final Weigh In

It is the final weigh in for the Shrink into Summer challenge. It was my first challenge since I joined the Sisterhood. Being a part of this group has made such a difference in the way that I approach weight loss now. I love the support and the accountability I feel.

I lost 7.7 pounds for a loss of 3.95%. I'm pretty happy with that. I know where I made my mistakes along the way. I know that there will always be temptations and things that I will have trouble controlling. I think with time and effort, I can get a better handle on them.

I have tried to lose weight too many times to count. This is the first time that I feel like I am going to make it. I have to give a very special thank you to my new friend, Christy. She has been so wonderful to me and given me so much support. I can't thank her enough. She is a huge part of why I am succeeding.

I am truly enjoying shredding. I have been doing the Wii Fit and the Jillian Michaels Fitness Ultimatum for the Wii. I went a little crazy yesterday and ordered the new Wii Active. I will be done with preschool after June 5th and have my whole days to get in lots of exercise. Just wait till the end of the next challenge. I plan to be on my way to smokin hot.

Just a little post note. I just remembered to measure and I lost five and three quarter inches over varying parts of my body. I thought I did, but now I know for sure. Now, I feel good!!

  2. Nancy, you are doing an amazing job and you know how proud I am!! I'm so glad I'm able to a helping hand along the way. Having friends definitely makes this whole journey a little easier and more enjoyable.

    You'll have to let us know what you think about the Wii Active. I've been thinking about trying it out!

    I started shredding again yesterday, on level 1, and I'm having a hard time getting up from a sitting position today! Taking 2 weeks off was not a smart thing ;)

    Congratulations on your wonderful and substantial loss of pounds and inches! You will be smokin' hot before you know it!
