Week 1: Chelsey's Before

The things a sister lets another sister talk her into. After I hung up the phone with sara when we agreed to do this blog, I promplty ran to the pantry and shoved a big piece of chocolate into my mouth. It was suprisingly calming.

I really don't want to post these pictures. Austin didn't want to wait for me to go get pretty so I am without a makeup and hair-do. But here they are, in all their not so glory.




Height: 5' 8"

Current weight: 196.5

BMI: 29.9 = Overweight (But let's be honest, it's only 0.1 away from Obese. Ouch)

Overall Goal:
To be 160 lbs before August 1st. Before I had Brynlee I was 155, but I'm being realistic and giving myself 5 lbs.

Whatever happened to this girl? I miss her.



I think Austin misses her too...Here's to hoping she comes back by August.

My goals this week:
1) To do at least 20 minutes of a workout video and 20 minutes of weight lifting 5 times this week. (One down today, 4 to go)
2) To stop eating after 7 (I stole yours sara)
3) To stop heaping cheese and sour cream onto all my food.

Week 1: Sara's Before

Whoa.

Let me say, this is a hard post to do.

It is hard to completely reveal my weight in all its *ahem* glory. Especially as a photographer, where I strive to only have the most attractive angles when taking pictures.

And that does not include these angles.

Or perhaps I should say curves.

Lot and lots of curves.

But no sucking in! Because I promised Chey I wouldn't.

Oh wait, my son decided that he needed in on some of this picture action.

What a goof!

Anyway, on to my starting week data:

Week 1 Weight:

197.8 lbs

Lookie! I even included proof. Just because.

Height:
5'3"

BMI:
34.2 = Obese (Ouch! Harsh, but true.)

Overall Goal:
To be 170 lbs (or less!) by August 1, 2011.

My 3 Goals For This Week:
1. No eating after 7 pm.
2. Drink 2 jugs of water daily.
3. Go walking for 20 minutes at least 5 days this week.
(Okay, so I'm starting with relatively easy goals. Every journey starts with a single step!)
