Okay, so 21 days means that from here on in it should become easier and easier for me to march to the toot (heehee I said toot) of my new healthy horn (I never said it would be a grown-up horn now did I :D ).
195.3 lbs
My Momma made an excellent suggestion today. She's rather clever at times and devised a ceiling number for me. She asked me what weight, at most, I would be happy with throughout life. I thought about it and said from here to being elderly, I should try to stay below 125 for my height.
She then said that I could never have any 9's, 8's, 7's, 6's on the scale. I thought about it and changed my tune. I lowered it. 122. No 5's 4's or 3's either. 122.2 is the highest weight I can be. That means I have to be very conscientious of my BMR and RMR once I reach my mid-life goal weight of 112.0 pounds. My grace is only 0.2 pounds. Ha! But, with my renewed love affair with exercise, I can always, as Loyd would say, Totally redeem myself! by adding a few minutes or whatever to my routine if I decide to indulge in poisonous food like sugary stuff.
Speaking of exercise. I bought 3 exercise bands for $20 at Target today (where I also bumped into my 6th grade teacher whom I loved, and still do. Ah! She looks great! Absolutely glows!). Anyway, the set has a small one to circle both ankles and work inner/outer thighs. It has a medium length two-hand band that works well behind the back vertically or in front horizontally on arms and shoulders and chest. And, it has a long two-hand or hand-to-foot band that works arms and core as well. I'm so excited! I'm like the coffee warehouse guy in the USPS commercial who should switch to decaf. And all I've had today is water to drink. Yipe! I'm addicted ^_^
I wish it hadn't started raining right after I got home or I'd be on the deck blasting 80's music and trying them out leg-warmer style :(
Oh well, home gym it is. Inside. Kinda dreery. Too quiet even with music. Thunder. Skies' stomach is growling. Lights seem harsh. No flowers in here. But home gym it is. :P Kidding. It's okay. I can move furniture and use the living room. Ooooooo! I'll watch Burlesque!!!!!
