Weight loss update

Well, on a whim this morning, since I was feeling skinnier, I weighed myself. I lost 2.6lbs since Friday morning, and ate pizza twice this weekend. I have no idea how that happened, but I'll take it, especially with Thanksgiving looming. After bobbling around the same few pounds, losing and gaining, and losing and gaining, I'm glad to be down a total of 3.8lbs, and hope it is the start of a new trend.

I've also been using the elliptical (so kindly given to us by some friends) daily. I can tell my stamina is increasing, and my breathing is better, plus I feel stronger. Cole doesn't really like it when I hide behind the gate on the elliptical though! He does think it's really funny when I lift weights, or do floor exercises though, and tries to climb all over me while I exercise. I guess he adds a 25lb resistance to my workouts.

I'm sad for when the Christmas tree gets put up, because it means the elliptical moves to the sunroom, and I'll have to exercise sans tv, during Cole's naps, since I can't watch him from the sunroom. I will be cranking up the music and freezing my butt off in the sunroom, since we don't heat it! At least I won't overheat though!
