3 weeks! Measurements.

Wowza! So, more inches are shed, not much weight, but, That's OK. The slower the weight comes off, the longer it stays off. Right? So, I'm drinking a LOT of water, and a bit of tea. When you go from drinking soda all day, to drinking water all day, you pee. A LOT! Well, at first you do. I'm finally peeing like a normal person, which is great.

I started taking a probiotic,  you know, because I'm old, or whatever. (NOT!) But, It's good for my urinary tract, so, I'll go with it. I've treated my body so awful, for so many years. Now, It's time to treat it nicer, before It's too late.

I'm going to jump right in.

Chest 36in... -3in total

Waist 33in... -5in total

Hips 41in... -2in total

That is crazy! 

I weigh 159lbs, today. That's -6lbs total! 

Okay. Yay! Picture time!

*I crop out my messy room. ;) *

Week 2 Measurements and weigh in.

Okay, all. Here goes.

I am only going to measure my waist and hips from now on.

My weight is 160. -3lbs 

My waist is at 34.5 inches. -1.5 inches

My hips are at 42 inches.  -1 inch 

Slowly but surely, inches are shedding. I haven't done anything outside of increasing my water intake, and removing 98% of my soda drinking habit. 

My pics for this week. 

Until next time! 

Oh, Man! I had a small Dr. Pepper!

Gah! I was craving a soda, so bad, so,  I stopped at McDonalds, and got a small Dr. Pepper. I took a drink, and it was DISGUSTING! I am happy with this result. I like that I don't like the taste of Dr. Pepper anymore. That crap is the devil.




Tomorrow I measure, and weigh in. I don't think I have lost much, if anything at all. I have a feeling I should wait until I wake up from my sleep (around 2pm) to weigh in, because, I am typically bloated after working a night shift. It's quite strange, actually. So, stay tuned for that. =)




I have been without a bunch of soda for a couple of weeks now. My skin isn't horribly dry, I no longer get headaches from not drinking soda. I think a lot of stuff is much sweeter than when I was drinking tons of soda every day. I have better energy. I am more clear minded. (Does that make sense? lol) My body doesn't ache anywhere near as bad as it used to. I don't get pain shooting through my stomach anymore. (wondering how close to diabetes I really was. eek!) I also love drinking water now. My tea is usually pretty watered down, when I drink it, also, with no sugar or sweetener at all.



My daughter isn't very happy about not getting a soda as often as she was. I figure why not fix this now, rather than wait until she's too old, or too far gone to help her. I think, this upcoming week, I am going to start adding in a little bit workouts, cardio type stuff. Especially since I am running a 5k on Saturday! Oh dear. I sure am glad I quit smoking and quit drinking so much pop. Yeesh.




So, Here's something fun! Click here to see how much sugar is ACUTALLY in your sweet drink!




And, CLICK HERE to see how much you can gain, just from drinking soda!




Now, just think. I went from drinking at least 6 cans of soda a day, to less than 1, every other day.



Quite a few of you readers have quit drinking soda, recently, so, I would like to take this time to ask how its going for you? Are you noticing any changes with your body?


I am going to go do 25 jumping jacks, now. And maybe utilize the stairs. ha!


Good luck to you all! <3


And, check back tomorrow, for my measurements.
