02/22/10 - 230.4 lbs (-2.6 total)

Well, don't cheer me on just yet for what seems like a good amount of weight off from this past week.  Actually, I'm not even going to tally the loss.

To explain:  This morning I weighed before I got dressed for work.  Then I realized that my initial weigh-in was after I got home from work....about 30-45 minutes after I ate.  Soooo......Now I just need to keep my weigh-ins consistent.  It's only the second week, after all, so this slip up shouldn't hurt too much.  Now, I did weigh myself tonight with about the same conditions, just to find out if there really was a difference, and so it seems that I have possibly lost about a pound or so.  But, the other thing making me iffy on saying that is, well, apparently our scale was finally (after almost 6 years) on its last huff to hold me (and my husband - he's the one who found out that the poor thing had died).  So sad.  But, it doesn't get a funeral.  We just need to get a new battery for the scale.  However, I think I will keep my weigh-ins to my Wii Fit Plus board.  It records how my balance is, too, and I like that feature.  I'm getting closer and closer to having a much better balance to my stride than I have had in the past!

Oh - and I didn't get my picture re-taken tonight.  Ran out of time between homework, exercise, and shower - and now it's WAY past my bed time.  I'm headed to visit my dreams for the night - but I'll probably update this post tomorrow if I'm able to get my new starting picture.

I tried to be creative with my post....but I don't feel very colorful tonight!  :)

And here are my new pictures - I will have them taken this way from now on to help with consistency:

I started weighing in with my shoes on--don't ask me why...so now I always have to weigh with them on. On a rough week I always want to take them off for weigh in but I refrain.

You are doing good!!

Thanks, Keelie! Yeah, I can so see myself wanting to take them off for some extra "encouragement" if I were to keep weighing with my shoes. :)
