week 2 check in

new scales weight: 196.2
stepping on my old scale to gauge weight loss: 193

so nothing lost this week. I had 2 bad days. I got an IUD on Tuesday and was really crampy and feeling blah. I didn't eat great and didn't feel like doing a second workout. Wednesday, I felt bloated and still blah. I don't know if it's from the IUD in general or because I got the one with hormones. Didn't eat so great this day either and was only in the mood for one workout. Thursday was the only day I did 2 workouts. So I didn't reach my goal this week.

Every other week, I'm taking measurements.

bust..........................42........... -.25
belly button..............39........... -.5
baby bulge................41.......... -1
waist.........................41.5....... -.75
hips..........................44.......... -0
Rarm........................12.5........ -.5 finally!
Larm........................12.5......... -.5 finally
Rleg..........................22............ -0
Lleg..........................22............ -0

Today the air quality is really bad and it's 9 degrees this morning, so I worked out on the treadmill. And I wanted to share. I walked at 3.0 for 30 minutes with the incline at 15.0. much much harder than it sounds. My heart rate got as high as 152! I was so sweaty. The lowest was 143 and that's because I had to "hold on" for a little bit.

This weeks goal: lose a pound and eat more fruits and veggies. at least 5 servings a day.

Did you get the Mirena IUD? I had one in between Sam and the little lady. I spotted for a month or two, but then never had a period. It was wonderful! I hope you like it. The only negative side effect I noticed was headaches, but I am sure I would get them with or without an IUD. I think my next choice will be the copper IUD, just because you can use it for up to 10 years...anyway
