So, I was feeling a little bummed out this morning when I stepped on the scale and I have only lost 6 1/2 pounds! Normally, I could lose weight just by dieting and not exercising and it drop off faster...I've been exercising my butt off!
Miles Jogged: 11.6
Miles Walked: 4.5
Bow Flex Arm Workout: 7 nights
Wii Active: 3 times (just bought it Tuesday)
Worked out 11 out of 15 days!!
I was thinking while driving back from Nashville today about a stick of butter. We all know it takes 4 sticks of butter to make a pound. Well, if you take 6 1/2 pounds and multiply it by 4, I've lost 26 sticks of butter. Doesn't that make it seem like a much bigger feat???
When you are feeling down and blue about your weight loss, think of it as sticks of butter...

Jodi, you are doing sooo good! Don't get discouraged! I have lost only 5.5 lbs and I have been working out/watching what I eat since April 27...so 6wks and not even a lb a week...it can be very frustrating! I love the butter sticks analogy...I have lost 22 sticks of butter :) Keep up the great work!
