The day has finally arrived - time to weigh in. Now I noticed immediately that my partner's wrists were much smaller then last week so I knew we were going to have good numbers... Our total combined weight loss was a whopping 13 pounds. My partner was a bit disappointed - she was hoping we could do 10 each but I convinced her that are bodies are in shock and they believe we are starving so they are telling the fat to stay put - that it may be needed. Next week will be even better!!! We did have to get on a scale that told us much more then we ever wanted/needed to know. One of the little tidbits of info it provided us with was our metabolic age and it basically said are bodies are so old we should both be dead! My partner would not allow me to put her metabolic age on our blog so I'm going to do like I did for the combined weight loss and do our combined metabolic age which would be 168 years old. So now if you decide to continue to read our blog you will not only be able to watch the weight fall off but you will actually be able to see us get younger. Now that is darn good, free entertainment if you ask me!
I think tonight I'm going to dream about Benjamin Button!
Wow!! That is great! 13 pounds!! Keep up the good work! May I ask what kind of scale you used?
ReplyDeletevery cool girls! Yup, patience has never been my virtue... I have patienTS, not patienCE. I wish there was a like button. Since much of the Percy clan is a sarcastic bunch I'm at home in your sarcastic ponderings....
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure Lani - it looked like a normal digital scale but it spewed out all these graphs on their computer that told them our BMI, our metabolic age and we both saw the words obese somewhere on that report - that's always nice to see! That word alone should keep this momentum going.
ReplyDeleteWay to go ladies! I'm also happy to report that I was down 15 pounds at my doctor visit this week; lost 12 at the visit before this one, as well. So, since December of 2012 (yes, I started over the holidays), I've lost 27 pounds. Many more to go! You're not alone.
ReplyDeleteWow Marj, that's fantastic!!! Are you on a specific diet or just watching what you eat. Keep on going!!!
ReplyDeleteCut portion sizes in half; eat the good food before the bad food; try not to eat after 7:00pm (unless I really haven't had a chance to eat anything since lunch); really watch the calories that I drink (I know, that's a tough one); and exercise everyday for 30 minutes or more. Honestly, I think the reason I'm able to really do it this time is because I love ballroom dancing so damn much . . . and I want to get really good at it and wear one of those slinky dresses. Hah! I'm hoping to reach my goal by Christmas and dance in the Winter Exhibition dance. You're invited if I actually reach that goal.
