Mamavation Monday: Move It & Lose It
Okay, I’m an idiot and thought the Move It & Lose It challenge started THIS week… but it turns out it started last week… So I don’t even know if it counts that I’m doing a post for it now. I’ll try anyway though, and hope for the best.
Here’s my weigh in for this week:
Current weight: 187.2
Previous weight: 190.6
Starting weight: 225
Week change: -3.4
Total change: -37.8
So yeah… I’m THRILLED! After last Saturday’s crazy bingefest, I worked really hard all week to eat well and move more, and it clearly paid off! I’m feeling really good about it.
Here are my measurements:
Left arm: 13.5in
Right arm: 13.5in
Chest: 39.5in
Bellybutton: 38in
Hip: 44in
Left thigh: 24.5in
Right thigh: 24.5in
I never took my measurements in January when I started this whole health journey, so the earliest comparison I have is to measurements I took in March. Since mid-March, I’ve lost 3.5 inches in my chest, 3.5 inches from my waist, and 3.25 inches from my hips. That feels pretty awesome.
And… my pics:
