Week 9

I lost 2 pounds this week. I now weight what I weighed when I got pregant with Alayna, my almost 6 year old :) I am having to reevaluate my original goal. I chose my goal weight by looking at my driver's license which I went to the DMV for when my name changed so I thought it was my "marriage weight". Someone reminded me the other day that everyone lies there and thinking back I do recall always rounding down even if the last digit was 5 or even 6 so my goal weight is actually probably more like my dating or engagement weight. I am now fitting into my old clothes and realizing if I loose 16 more pounds I will have to buy all new clothes. The way I justified paying money for Synergy was it was either that or buy clothes b/c nothing fit so it would kind of go against my original argument if I ended up buying new clothes anyways. I am going to keep working towards my original goal but if I plateau after around 7 more pounds I am going to be ok with that.

Current=Original-23
Current= Goal +16
Body Fat: 27%

We are now on week 3 of couch to 5k. I never would have dreamed a month ago that I could run for 3 minutes without dying (I almost died after 30 seconds) but I can do it now even if I am close to dying. I do not think I will make much more gains past this but hopefully it will happen like 3 minutes did.

Week 8

current=original-21
current=goal+18
Body Fat=28%

Week 7 Weigh In

Current=Original-19
Current=Goal+20
Body Fat: 29.4%

I changed my weigh in day to Wednesdays due to Doug and I switching the days to pick up Liya.

My weight loss has slowed down (1.6 pounds this week) but at least I am still loosing. Ginny and I have decided to repeat week 1 of the couch to 5k training because we are not ready to run for 90 seconds everytwo minutes. According to my ap we walked/jogged the whole 3.1 miles in 28 minutes yesterday but after talking to some other people I think my ap might not be accurate because they are more advanced than us and not doing a 10 minute mile. I have not been as good about getting up and excercising this week. I have walked and/or ran every night but I would really like that to be in addition to my morning workout. Hopefully this week I will do better and pass my 20 pound mark.

Weigh In Week 6

Current Weight= Original-18

Current Weight= Goal + 21

Body Fat was 30%

I was really hoping to reach 20 pounds. I also like the numbers on the scale first thing in the morning instead of the afternoon which is when I weigh at Synergy. The number in the tens place is different and a much prettier number than the one in the afternoon :) It is amazing how different 2 pounds can sound based on the weight you say.

Synergy $

Several people have asked me about the prices. It flatters me when people ask me because it makes me think they think I am showing progress. There is an inclusive program but I don't remember that price. I do the "al carte" program. To start the program is $190 but I used a coupon for $100 off. If you look hard enough and are patient you can find a coupon like this. Currently, they told me, they are in Paulding County's "Our Neighbor" and also "The Little Black Dress" coupon books. They said most people got them in the mail yesterday. The start up fee includes all your blood work, your first month of appetite suppressants, and your first B12 shot. After that it is $25 a week for your weight check and B12 shot. Once a month you will need to have a check up ($25) and refill your meds($25-$35). It is kind of pricey but the results are quick which I need for motivation and I am starting to fit into my clothes again which is keeping me from having to go out and buy new, bigger clothes. They also offer HCG shots which gives you really fast results. You can only do that for 3 weeks at a time and it is an additional $225 each round you do it. I have not done that part of the program.

If you decide to go, please tell them I refered you. You will get $25 off your start up fee and I will get my next B12 shot for free. I have gotten 2 free weeks so far :) The first girl that signed up has lost 15 pounds and she signed up a few weeks after me.
