Weeks Two and Three

One week into my new blogging and I didn't even keep up... But it wasn't totally my fault. The power cord to my laptop died. This is the second time this has happened to me. Apparently Dell is fully aware of the problem but refuses to fix it. So I was stuck forking out $70 again to replace it. I will DEFINITELY buy an Apple next time...

Anyway, week two I lost 2.2 lbs. I definitely should have cleaned the mirror before taking this shot! My apologies to everyone. One thing I rediscovered that week was Zumba. I had purchased a Groupon that was about to expire so I decided to use it. It was so much fun! I only made it once that week since my friend from Colorado came to visit me briefly and let's be honest, I'm lazy.

Week three I lost 2.4 lbs. Which brings my grand total to 7.4 lbs lost. I'm almost not obese anymore!!! One more pound and I'll be back in the overweight BMI category. Oh the things that excite me... You still can't see too much of a difference but maybe in a few more weeks.

I had great intentions of attending more Zumba this week. I went on Monday and my knee started hurting again. Yes, the same one that was hurting me a few months ago when I was simply walking briskly. I don't know what the problem is. I really do wonder if I am too heavy and need to stick to low impact exercises like walking until I'm thinner. One rediscovery from this week was the Pumpkin Chocolate Chip cookies I got from my WW leader five years ago. One can of pumpkin, spice cake mix, 3/4 cup mini chocolate chips. That's it. They were one point a piece and since it seems that everything went up about one point, they're probably two points a piece.

I should be back on track posting on Sunday. I may start going to a different meeting since I hate early mornings but I haven't found one that will work for me this week. Maybe next week...
