Definitely not complaining

I lost another 1.4lbs this week, which puts me juuuuuuuust over 290lbs (290.4 to be exact). I was fairly convinced that this week wasn't going to be a loss week because when I weighed myself on tuesday I was basically the same weight I was last week, but I guess you can vary a lot day to day. Next week I should be into the 280's which is an incredibly exciting prospect. I kind of can't remember the last time I was in the 280s. Years and years. I'm also really close to the 20lb lost mark. It'll be really great to hit that.

I also started back in to the weight training at the gym tonight. I have been meaning to start using the weight machines again for months but today since my foot is feeling pretty weak and sore I decided to cut a little off my time on the elliptical and add in the machines, which don't strain my foot. I am going to make a concerted effort to do the weight machines at least three times a week. I feel as though my lower body is doing well with all the intense cardio I do on the elliptical, but my upper body needs more. When/if I ever lose the pudge on my arms I'd like to think it will reveal some sort of muscle. ha ha ha


Also, I think I need to take tomorrow off from the gym. My bad foot is feeling pretty weak and sore, so instead of continuing to push it I am going to give it a day to rest. I'll go back Saturday though, and Sunday I have plans to go to the gym with a cousin who moved here recently. She is thinking of joining a gym and thinks that a gym buddy might be a good plan. Whatever. I'm already there so it doesn't really matter if she comes with me.
