9/18 Weigh-In

The official number for my weigh-in is 196!  I am smidgen disappointed that it was 195.x, but I am still very happy about the loss!  Last Sunday I was 198.5, so from last week that is 2.5.  Week before that was 197.0 so that is a 1lb. loss.  Either way, positive movement down!  Would've been nice to be more than the 1lb. since last weekend I was all swelled up, and I was going on the previous weigh-in as a marker of my progress, but I'll take anything that is moving down!  Hopefully next week I will see another loss.  But what I AM happy about is I have OFFICIALLY hit my 20lbs. lost!  Woot!!!

Not sure what today is going to be like.  It's Sunday and usually we like to take it easy, but I am thinking we are going to have to run some errands.  Mainly, we were suppose to have gotten a new carseat from the BRU Great Trade-in Event, but we have yet to do it.  Today is the last day so we really should go.  Our carseat could make it a bit longer -- it's a transition seat so it's the right size.  BUT, it says it expires this Spring.  I wouldn't take much stock in that except for youngest is only 13mos. (about to be 14mos.) and he will be in this seat for a long time.  At least until he is 3.  THIS is one of the issues with having kids farther apart -- you have to replace things!  We got good deals on oldest's stuff and it has for sure gotten it's usefulness, but we bought them discounted which means they were the previous season's stock to begin with.  That means when we bought them, they were already sometimes a year old.  SO, now they are expired.  Which is only, apparently, a big deal in carseats.  Well, it's ABOUT to expire.  And with a 25% discount for trading in, I just don't see the point in not taking advantage of that.  I think it's only 20% in Spring.

OK, well, I guess I need to go and get to it.  Later chicks.

  2. Yay! So happy for you that you've made your 20 lbs. lost! You're moving downward & like I said before, they say that when you lose it at a slow, steady pace, it's easier to keep it off for good!
