Another Weigh In and Measurement

Well, another Saturday on the scale. I don't like the scale. I have been trying to get under 200 for a couple of weeks. 202.8 then 201.3, now I have gained so I am back up to 203. But, it was also measurements so I have lost even more inches. I have lost all over my body, but the best part is that I have lost 4 inches on my abs. Below will be last months to this month's measurements. Back to the Biggest Loser Saturday. It took a while for everyone to get weighed in and measured. After everyone was, we had a big meeting. CeCe reminded us that we have off all of next week. It will be up to us to eat right and work out. We also will be weighing in next Monday night, we really have to be prepared for it. CeCe has been having a early early morning Boot Camp and some of my team mates and been taking it. It's 4:30 to 5:30 in the morning and its a strenuous workout. There is no way that I could get there, get back home, and get ready to work in time. There was a woman today that was mad/upset/whatever about not losing any weight this week b/c she has worked out every day and has been eating right. I even made the point to tell her that her body is making muscle, which has weight and that's probably what's been happening. CeCe talked for a little bit and then there was another announcement. It was said that this past month we have been talking about emotions. She said that there is a team that always helps each other in so many different ways. It was about my team, the Purple Team, b/c we had lost 300 pounds!!! Everyone got a bag with a book in it. CeCe then talked about the scale. She told us not to be looking at the numbers. We need to look at the inches, our body fat percentage, and the way that we feel. CeCe said that people are usually consumed with what the scale says. She said to EXPECT a 1-2 pound gain if we are doing the morning workout or have stepped up our exercise routine. (that's me). 4-5 pound gain is something to talk about, but if we are losing inches and our BMI's are coming down, than things are good. Which makes me say that THINGS ARE GOOD. This week while off for Spring Break will show me and others if i have it to keep going when this big thing ends.
