Number games

My cat Belle, playing with the tape measure

I know that I have been away for a few days...errr....maybe a week, but not because I lost focus.  The long weekend has been oh so nice and relaxing, and provided me with a much needed break from work.  So you know how I have been going on and on whining about how the I'm not losing as fast as I want to?  Well, I had my husband take my measurements 2 weeks ago, so I could keep track of it that way too.  He made some fancy spreadsheet, which is the anal engineer in him, and measured away.  

Well Saturday was the check in day to see if I lost anything, and to be honest, I wasn't really expecting much, especially since the scale hadn't been moving that much.  I couldn't believe the results.  I thought maybe it was accurate, or that he measured in the wrong place, but he was so exact with his measurements, anal engineer, remember? LOL  It turns out in two weeks I have lost 1 inch on EACH of my upper arms, 2.5 inches on EACH thigh, and nothing around the midsection...boo that's where I need it most.  We are adding measurements to the chart, but for now he only took measurements of my upper arms, thighs, and waist, or lack thereof.  So overall I as pleased, although I do wish I could lost in my stomach.  LOL  So we will see how my next measurement session goes on the 18th.  

In other numbers, I weighed in yesterday, and I lost 3 more pounds!  This hard work is paying off slowly, but surely!  This weekend has overall been wonderful.  We did a nine mile bike ride on Saturday, and an 11 mile bike ride yesterday.  I wanted to do another one today, but we were pretty tired from the whole weekend, that we agreed to take a day off of the trails.  I really love riding, it is so much fun, and a great workout.  I can definitely feel it in my legs. 

I hope everyone had a fabulous long weekend and I wish you all a great week ahead!

Fabulously Me,
