New Year New Me Update

I didn’t post the last two weeks because the week before last we were in Disney World and then last week I was just really busy.  I had weighed in last Thursday and had lost 1.2lbs.  That was significant to me because I had not worked out at all since the week of the 13th.  And because while at Disney I drank sodas and ate food that was not all that healthy for me.  And I really thought that I would have just stayed the same really since we walked so much while there.
I have yet to start working out yet because last weekend we worked in the back yard and I hurt my hamstrings {both legs!} toting bricks all over the back yard lining in a new flower bed.  So starting Monday I am back on my elliptical.  Starting out fairly easy since I haven’t worked out in 3 weeks. 
I stepped on the scale this morning and was down 1.4lbs.  Which in total with last weeks weigh in is 2.6lbs!!  That means I am only 7.6lbs from my second 10lb goal!  When I hit that goal I will have lost a total of 20lbs.  I am rather excited I’m that close to such a large number. 
I would also like to report that I was able to wear a new pair of trouser style jeans to work today that I had purchased several months ago.  I bought a size smaller {a 10} so that I could lose into them.  I can happily say that they fit great! 
Here’s to getting back on the workout train Monday!
