What else can I say about this, other then:

Dear Body,

I'm really really sorry that I have treated you like this. I'm also sorry that it had to get this far for me to have to make some changes.

Love,
Me

... ug. I did it... but I'm not happy about it. Updated the side pictures in a fit of inspiration from Greta at the Big Bottom Blogger! For all of you out there that are here looking. I'm sorry for the gratuitous butt shot. But underwear isn't made to hold that in anymore. Well... not any that I own.




















On a side note - I think that it is quite funny that I have almost the same floor and wall colour in my new house as in the last one. HA!

First 10

Today I weighed in at 270.4lbs, and since this afternoon I found batteries for the camera...and since I had time...and on Monday nights I have to "make time".... and since this is 10lbs down from my start.

I shall share with you my new photos.

Honestly - I didn't really think that there would be much of a difference... but I can really see it now. *BIG GRIN*

Never mind the effed up bits at the bottoms...I don't have a clue why they load like that on here. Its very annoying, but not that big a deal since the important bits are in the photos.

The Good the Bad and the Fatty

I got up this morning and stepped on the scale - down ...errmm...about a pound??

I have this totally old beat up dial scale that you have to crouch down to read. This is not accurate. I did my measurements and decided that for better or worse, I was going to get a digital scale on the way home tonight and start there.

So.. yeah.

The Bad. The new scale says I weight 279.8. ARG! but I'm going to go with a 1lbs loss, that means that I was actually starting at 281 (for rounding sake). So, I will amend the blog to start at 281 go from there.

The Good. Inches are down!!! which is really the more important things anyway. Down from 336.2" to 333.4". DOWN 2.8 inches... and that with an increase of half an inch on my arms! :)
Neck -16.2, Bust - 48.5, Ribcage - 42.8, Waist - 50, Hips -
52.6, Thigh (L) - 28.2, Thigh (R) - 27.1, Calf (L) - 18.9, Calf (R) - 18.2, Bicep (L) - 15.6, Bicep (R) - 15.3
Dec 1, 2008 Total Inches: 333.4

So I'm not going to cry too hard about the increase in starting weight. I'm going to enjoy the fact that I lost a total of one whole inch off my waist.

So there you have it. My first weight/measure of the year. Now, next goal is lose 3.57lbs by December 15th.
