Walking Tall

I met some WW Online ladies for lunch today and felt like I looked pretty good!  NSV: I wore these awesome sandals walking around all day today and no pain in feet or back or legs! I am only 5' tall so heels always make me feel special. I haven't been able to wear them for ages - the extra weight made me off balance and my back and feet couldn't take it.

Weigh In Week 32


This felt like a hard week! I have a post in my head about being below 190 but saving it for when it feels more real - if I get to 185 I'll post it!

Total for April is 4.7 lbs.


Weekly average: 1.32 lbs

Suited Up

This suit is size 16. It hasn't fit since late 2014. I tried it on the other day hoping I could wear it to a conference today.  It was too big!  I had it altered and now it fits perfectly :)  The seamstress said it was taken in a size and a half!

Weigh In Week 29



This week I tried two new things!  I took a Zumba class and a Kettlebell class. Both served to reinforce my un-gracefulness and un-coordination! They were both different than I expected but still very much fun and very challenging.

I also did Aquafit 4 times since my last weigh in, 2 of those classes on the same day as a Zumba and Kettlebell class. In the Kettlebell class we did a lot of things I have never done before; plank, side plank, side lunges and supermans.  I managed to do them all to some degree and I am going to practice at home so next week I won't feel quite so inept.  The Kettlebell class was small - just 10 women of varying sizes and degrees of fitness so it was very inclusive and welcoming. The instructor did not seem very helpful to individuals, as in modifying or correcting form, but she is cheerful and seems very patient so that's always helpful.  Zumba was  madhouse! I counted 40 women. It was very crowded, which always makes me anxious, but once I got into it, I just zoned into the instructor and my own feet and it was fine.

Definitely something was working though because I woke up the morning after the Kettlebell class hurting all over, mostly quads, hamstrings and abs.  I am still somewhat sore today but it is better!

Although Spring has arrived, we are expecting snow tomorrow and it has been rainy the last few days.  The weekend is supposed to be gorgeous though and I am looking forward to a beachfront walk at least one day.

Hope your week is going well!!!
