Passed with flying colors!

I was completely ecstatic to see this number on my scale today.

I know, I need to find time to paint my toes again...

I had such a terrible previous week and so I was really hoping I could push through and make the most of this week. I not only knocked off the 2 lbs that I gained in week 4 but I lost well past that and have a total of 6.4 lbs down in the last week! I was praying to just see 239 at least but 236 is fantastic. I'm so happy to be out of the 240s finally. I have been wavering up and down in those numbers pretty much since I've had Bethany and it drove me nuts. Hopefully I never have to see them ever again! This puts my total weightloss this year so far at 11.4 lbs. I feel great with that number and am excited to keep on going towards goal. I worked out 3 times yesterday and am really proud of myself for that. I ended up doing 15 minutes on the elliptical after dinner last night. We had spaghetti and meatballs with garlic toast so even though I had done 2 different workout dvd's with friends that morning I thought I better not just sit around on my butt after eating a meal like that so close to bed time. So far today I have done a 20 minute Turbo Jam routine and am feeling pretty great still. On track calorie-wise and looking forward to having some catfish for dinner tonight. :)
