Losing Weight and Getting Healthy #14 {#Cinchspiration}
There’s nothing new to report. My weight is holding steady at 155.6 lbs and has been for the last week and a half. I’m OK with that. As long as the number isn’t going up, I can deal. I’m still working on eating more vegetables. I don’t know why that’s such a difficult thing for me but it is. So my goal for this week is to work harder on increasing my fruit and veggie intake. I will also continue my daily walks with my co~workers and work harder at hitting 10,000 steps. To watch my weight loss story unfold, stay tuned as I blog, Facebook, vlog, tweet and pin my inches lost. You can follow the Team…

Losing Weight and Getting Healthy #12 {#Cinchspiration}
Cannot believe I’ve hit the 3 month mark. Cannot believe I’ve hit the 3 month mark and I’m in the same exact place that I was in 3 months ago. cue the violins and sad clowns I am not a happy camper. I’m seriously at a loss as to what to do. I’ve started Shape Up SEMO at work, which is a fitness/wellness program/challenge that encourages us to get up and move for at least 30 minutes a day. A few of my coworkers and I have started walking about 20 to 30 minutes per day, which is nice. We enjoy getting out of the office and seeing the sun,…

Losing Weight and Getting Healthy #11 {Cinchspiration}
I don’t have any weight loss pictures this week. See what had happened was… Um, I simply didn’t take any. I’m not gonna lie, I’m not happy with my progress so far. I thought this far into the Cinch Inch Weight Loss Program that I would have lost a decent amount of weight. Instead, I seem to keep losing the same 3 lbs over and over again. Not fun. In fact, it’s quite frustrating. I see the pictures of my other Team #Cinchspiration friends and I gasp at the changes that I see in them… Thinner faces, smaller waist lines, lower numbers on the scale, etc. Then I look at myself…

So, ummmmm, no scale picture today. But I will provide an update anyway. I’ve gained 1.4 lbs since last week but I’m not sweating it. Why, you may ask? Because I’ve lost 2 inches off my waist! Yes, 2 whole inches. I am beyond thrilled. Last week I bought a pair of jeans that were a little snug so that I wouldn’t have to wear a belt (a fashion thing, I hate wearing belts especially when they leave that lumpy buckle under my tees)… Anyway, I now need a belt to keep my pants up. It ain’t sexy when you have to do the pull up your pants wiggle every…

Losing Weight and Getting Healthy #7 {#Cinchspiration}
I have not exercised at all. Last week, our church was crazy busy and I was just making it home from work with enough time to shower, make dinner for the family and get out of the house, so that left little time for anything else. Confession: On days when I haven’t had time to cook, I’ve eaten fast food. This week will also be pretty busy, so I’m going to have to set my alarm a little earlier and get up to do something. Groan I am not a morning person, but I know if I want to see something happen I have to start doing things a bit…

Losing Weight and Getting Healthy #6 {#Cinchspiration}
So it seems I’ve reached the dreaded plateau. My weight seems to have gotten stuck between 156 lbs and 158 lbs. I guess I should be happy that I’m not gaining, but I thought for sure I would’ve broken that 155 lb barrier by now.I’m more than a bit disappointed to say the least. I think I’m going to have to look at my calorie intake and see if I need to add more calories. I’m currently holding steady between 1200 and 13oo calories and I know that too little calories can cause your body to retain weight instead of losing it. I may need to bump it up by…
