Modest successes

Sorry I disappeared. Work and life got busy, ya know?

Modest success #1: I am getting better at doing some of the exercises we do at the WiO fitness classes on Tuesdays and Thursdays. I can hold planks and side planks (modified of course) without wanting to die quite as much.

Modest success #2: I am still losing inches even though my weight has been hovering around 243 to 246. My new measurements are...[pause while I look them up]...

Your Measurement Results:
	Neck	Shoulders	Arm	Chest	Thorax	Belly Button	Waist	Hips	Thigh	Knee	Calf	Ankle
First	14.500	49.000	15.000	48.000	43.000	54.000	53.000	53.000	27.000	0.000	17.000	0.000
Last	13.500	47.500	14.500	46.000	41.500	53.000	51.500	51.500	27.000	0.000	15.750	0.000
Diff.	1	1.5	0.5	2	1.5	1	1.5	1.5	0	0	1.25	0

So over the last three weeks I've lost a total of 11.75 inches. Of course, I've only noticed the difference in my chest, the one place I'd loved to have stayed the same...I like boobs.

Modest success #3: I went to the Texas Roadhouse and didn't "cheat." Okay, on a scale of one to ginormous this is really a ginormous success for me. I love, love, love the Texas Roadhouse rolls and butter, the fries, the baked potatoes, even the croutons that come on the salads, and I didn't eat any of those things. I ordered the 8oz sirloin with a Caesar salad (no croutons) and broccoli. The server/cooks were great accommodating what I needed to stay good with the protocol.
