Another Friday... sigh.
Time just goes way too fast. Ben will be 6 months old in two weeks.
Anyway, time for a progress report.
Bust - 51" - lost .5" - total 2"
Waist 41" - lost 1.5" - total 6.5"
Hips 62" - lost .5" - total 4"
Under belly 57" - lost 1" - total 3"
Thigh 28" - lost .5" - total 2"
Upper arm 18" - lost 1" - total 2"
Well, so far the saying "last on, first off" is true - I've lost more in my waist and upper arms percentage wise than anywhere else. It doesn't seem like I'm making much progress in the hip area, but actually, I am. My horrible "apron" is lifting itself up and it doesn't touch the top of my thighs when I stand or spread so far across my lap when I sit. It's still a pain in the ass to manage while trying on clothing, but whatever.
I'm actually very surprised at the progress this week. I missed two of my three gym visits. Friday was the Katie drive, and Bren got sick, so I didn't get the chance to make it up this weekend. And Wednesday, *I* was sick. I'm going to see how I feel today, but I'm pretty sure I'm going to go. I also ate a lot of crap - chocolate cake anyone? But I'm still trying, so that's a good thing. Usually by this point, I've thrown in the towel. But I have seen progress, and the threat of wearing white and having lots of pictures taken looms largely in my brain. I do need to buy some new bras soon. My old band size is 46 and I just measured and I'm 41 there now. But the breastfeeding is still going on... sigh.
I am getting close to my goals for most of my measurements.
Bust - 47 inches = 4 inches away
Waist - 39 inches = 2 inches away (I'm going to pass this one, I think.)
Hips - 50 inches = 12 inches away (7 under the tummy)
Upper arm - 15 inches = 3 inches away
Upper thigh - 24 inches = 4 inches away
The hips are going to be a pain to get. I better start doing some ab work. Bleah.
Oh, and I still hate going to the gym. But I always feel good when I'm done and walking home. Weird.

no subject
also, while googling for something completely different, i ended up on this page and thought of you: babyfit's post-pregnancy fitness page. looked like it might have some interesting articles about how best to exercise while still breastfeeding and so on.
