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!

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!

It is Tastier than you Think...

I've only been off of soda, completely, for a few days, but, I have come to realize I am wanting better foods, since switching over to H2o.



For lunch, I had raw baby spinach, with sharp cheddar cheese, and salsa. That was delicious. (I am aware that I am a weirdo, and I have accepted it. Don't judge me.)



Something else that I've noticed, and I don't know if it is from not smoking, not drinking an assload of soda, or what, but, salsa is a LOT spicier. (Is that even spelled right? Is it even a word? It looks funny to me. Oh, well. You know what I'm saying.) I mean, salsa that I would eat, regularly, that was never spicy to me, before is now burning-my-tongue-off hot.  I guess it could be age, as well? Maybe? I wouldn't bet on that, though. I'm still pretty young. ;)





I am excited to measure again, on Wednesday. I kind-of measured a little yesterday, just out of curiosity, and I was down a whole inch off of my waist. Not too shabby. =D



No more sneak peaks, though. That takes all the fun from next Wednesday's post. ha!

Let's make this interesting!!

How many inches do you think I will have lost by Wednesday, 11/12/14?

I will have you guess 2 areas: Waist and Hips.
(You can find my original measurements on my first blog.)

First person to guess correctly, will get a homemade gift, from ME! =D
Make sure you leave your guesses in the comments section below, (on the actual blog, rather than the shared post).


Exciting!

Missing my Morning Dr. Pepper

Every morning, after dropping Meg off at school, I usually grab a  for breakfast.
It usually would come in a cup, that looks kind of like:  Yes. That's a Route 44. I guess it could have been worse. It could have been one of those trash can sized cups, from 7-11. Ha! Ewwwwwww. 
 Well. Here's to changes! 
Breakfast is served: 

Straight up ice water. I'll save the lemons and cucumbers for tonight.
This is going to be difficult. No sense in lying about it. I have been on "vacation" since October 20th. I've gotten accustomed  to normal living. Sounds nice, and all, but, I work overnights. I am going to have to get back into the night shift routine, without soda!
Well, wish me luck, I'm going to take a nap in about an hour, but first? Red Band Society MUST be watched.
Until next time...

My oh My, time to say Goodbye... to soda!

Bahhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

Hi! I am about to start my second journey in quitting. Sounds crazy, right? Well, I am actually going to quit drinking soda pop.

At least once a week, I am going to post my measurements. I know! What woman in her right mind would share that with EVERYONE? Well. Me, of course.

I will also share my weight. Starting out, I won't be doing any special workouts, or anything like that. Just switching soda out, and replacing it with sugarless tea and water.

Easy peazy, right? Wrong! I need to make sure I my head doesn't explode, due to lack of sugar and caffeine. Aleve, motrin, ibuprofin, and Tylenol are stocked. I have ice, lemons, cucumbers, and water. I brewed black tea, and green tea.

Now it's time to start!

Here are my measurements, this time. Beginning measurements.
(Oh, all measurements are taken from the widest part of each area, every time)

Chest: 39 inches

Waist: 38 inches

Hips: 43 inches

Thighs: r-25in L-24.5in

Calves: r&l-15in

Biceps: r&l-13in

Weight: 165lbs

Height: 4'11"

Here are my start pictures. (In my kid's room. Lol.)
