164!
My boyfriend hasn’t said much about me loosing weight lately, but he did today!
I was walking outta work and he looked out the car window and said, “Hey there skinny-minny!”
I got in the car and he turned to me and said, “Why you lookin’ so skinny?”
I really like my job because it keeps me from eating all day. I’m allowed to eat whenever and whatever I want, but I’m so busy I have no time to stop and eat. I come to work and fix me a piece of whole wheat toast with peanut butter and cinnamon and a cup of coffee(black). That keeps me full til about 11:00 then I just drink water and coffee(black) until I get off at 3:00. I come home and have a bottle of water and an apple, a pack of crackers, or an oatmeal bar. Then at dinner I eat the same amount of whatever my step-son eats. Keeps me from over-eating.
With all the lifting of the dish pans and walking up and down the stairs about 20 times a day I loose about 10lbs every 2 weeks.
I would really like to reach my UGW by July 4th which is my ONE YEAR ANNIVERSARY!
After about 5 months I’ve only managed to loose 25lbs, but you can see a difference in my body.
I plan to be down to my goal weight by July(: I’ll post pictures on the 20th of April!
Starting at 175.
In two weeks I hope to be down 7-10lbs.

Exercise for the Transversus Abdominis
(AKA the muscle that pulls in the ring of your waist)One area of your abs you may be neglecting is the transversus abdominus - without working it, you run the risk of developing a square torso (straight up and down) rather than an hourglass one (tapered at the waist). Here’s what you can do along with your usual ab workout:
- Get on all fours, back straight, looking down.
- Exhale completely, then hold your breath.
- Pull your belly toward your spine (“suck in”) as hard as possible for 10 seconds, while continuing to hold your breath.
- Inhale. Take a few breaths, then repeat 10 times.
Later, you’ll probably feel as though you’d been laughing at something REALLY funny. That’s because you worked those same muscles. Enjoy!
