Weigh In

Okay, I figure I can do two posts today because I was a big ol' slacker this week!

Here are the results from weigh in:

Wonderful Husband:  +19 lbs!  (Then he put the cat down!)

Actual loss = 1 pound  and the people rejoiced!

Hormonal Teenage Son (yes, the tag is back):  -1 lb and has lost an additional 21/2 inches off his waist!  The people rejoiced and the young maidens sighed.

Me:  -8 lbs!  Yes, pick your jaws up from the floor!  I checked it three times!  8 flipping pounds in one week.  I know it is not healthy, but for one week, I'll take it!  I have also lost and additional 2 inches off my waist for a total of 8!  Hey we got 8's going on here!  Anyone play the lottery?

Here is what my little chart looks like from my Dtour tracking page:

	Weight	Measurement
Date	4/18/2010	4/18/2010
Starting	262  lbs.	48 inches
Current	242 lbs.	40 inches
Goal	115 lbs.	24 inches
Change	-20 lbs.	-8 inches.

Percent of Body Weight Lost
7%

Losing 5-10% of your body weight can lower your blood sugar and blood pressure and help prevent diabetes

The people are not only rejoicing, they are having a flat out, headbanging, ear-blasting, Myron-stomping, dragon slaying party!!!! 

Today, I will rejoice!
