1. Reiterate my goal and where I stand in reference to this goal. (BMI info from this website)
Starting weight: 149 (Down from 168 the day before I gave birth to Baby G.)
Goal Weight: 125
Last Week's Weight: 147
Current Weight: 147
Starting BMI: 27.2
Goal BMI: 22.9
Last Week's BMI: 26.9
Current BMI: 26.9
2. Progress on last week's activities:
I'm still walking down the stairs whenever I leave work or have to use the 2nd floor bathroom.
We're back to eating at least 3 home cooked dinners a week.
Still trying to get better at drinking water.
I go back to pole this week.
Activities for this coming week:
1. Walk down the stairs instead of using elevator after work.
2. Eat a home cooked meal 3 times this week.
3. Work out at gym 1 time this week.
4. Drink at least 8oz of water each after each nursing/pumping session.
5. Pole class 1 time this week.
4. My thoughts on the last week/my activities:
I took out the part about eating more fruits and veggies. I kinda do and kinda don't. I think I've turned into a coffee addict and it's honestly better with a sweet (I can't stand putting sugar in my coffee though). I replaced that with working out once a week at the gym. My real goal is to do that twice a week, but life happens and I figure I definitely should be able to do 20-30 minutes one day out of the weekend if I can't get there during the week.
I realized today that it's better to weigh myself after I nurse. I weighed myself before I did that this morning and realized I had a few extra ounces on me. I used the number I saw after I nursed. I hope that isn't cheating!
Sounds as if you are doing well... keeping the same number beats going up!! :) What a smart idea to weigh in after nursing. I hadn't thought of that before. I am so scared to weigh myself after this trip!! :/ I will be sure when I finally do, Alidia has a nice long nursing session before hand! ;)
ReplyDeleteHaha - I always weigh myself AFTER nursing/pumping and after peeing, but BEFORE the shower (so my wet hair doesn't add weight!). Silly, I know. :)
ReplyDeleteMaybe try walking UP the stairs at work as well? Consider your pump bag as extra resistance. ;-)
It is ABSOLUTELY not cheating to weigh yourself after nursing! If only I could figure out how to shed some ounces before a weigh in, now that I'm not nursing any more ... !
ReplyDeletePole class scares me. I've never done it, but there's a studio near me that does ... what's it like?
Love Baby G's milestones. You definitely got a curious one ... I did, too. Their sense of wonder at the world is astounding.
And thanks for stopping by my blog ... I love new visitors and commenters! :)
Thanks for your recent comments on my blog. :)
ReplyDeleteI'm trying to lose weight too...am at 144 lbs...down from 202(!) right before I gave birth to my twins...and my goal is 135...so I like you are posting this stuff! I say whatever you need to do to get your scale the lowest! :)
