This is what we call "The Face". Right after making this face comes a big smile....

28

Yes that's right still stuck at 28 pounds lost.

I have been burned out, and summer time is not my normal routine

I did this Hydrostatic weighing in a truck that came to my gym...it's the most accurate way to weigh you get in a big tub and they submerge you underwater and weigh you.

Turns out it was just as depressing as i thought it would be to finally see it in writing. I still have about 25-30 more pounds to lose. how did i let myself go so. ugh. I'm going to "live it up" this week while my mom is visiting then I'm cracking down again. I even bought a digital food scale for this time around. I'm not messing around. I want to be done in another 8 months; can't believe it's been that long already.
I signed with a personal trainer at the gym for about a month. Hopefully he can show me some new things that will make a difference at this point. Can't wait to unpack all those boxes in the garage Ben labeled "Wendy's Skinny Clothes" a few years ago. I'll replace them with "Wendy's Fat Clothes" :) Oh and Jill if you are reading this I REALLY need your losin it blog...help me get back on it .... PLEASE?!
