Gearing Up - Week 17 Day 1

 Weight this am - 158.6

And back up again....as it always does after a drop.   My measurements surprised me this morning.   I really thought I lost inches in my waist this month, but nope.    Hips and thigh dropped an inch each though so that's probably why the pants fit.   I'm definitely hoping for a bit more stomach this month.   The loss has to come from SOMEwhere, so hopefully that's coming up.   

Less loss this month than any other, but the combination of stretching out the shots and the carby Thanksgiving food probably has a lot to do with it.    It's still 5.6 pounds so not insignificant...just not as much as I'd like.    Right now I'm just enjoying the holidays and not stressing.   So long as I don't gain it's all good.    Need to get through Christmas/Yule and we're there.   January is usually my prime workout month anyway and that's coming up quickly.   

I'm definitely still motivated to see the scale go down so I'm sure I'll stay on track.   I'm just giving myself grace if it doesn't go down quite as much.   

One thing I am noticing is how much easier it's getting to be to move around.   I'm actually beginning to feel like my body can do things again.   It's so much nicer.   I know I get impatient sometimes with things not moving as fast as I'd like, but I really do appreciate the little changes...because over time those little changes add up to big ones.
