If you look carefully at the picture above, you’ll notice that there was a distinct worn in spot around the 2nd notch in (from the right). That’s where my belt normally rested. At the worst of times after a particularly heavy meal, it would go as far as being on the 1st notch. What you can’t see is that where it’s resting in the picture (the 3rd notch) is also very well worn in. That’s because this is a particularly old belt and I used to be that thin.
And now I am again.
This week for the first time in many years, I put on my belt and I was a whole notch down. That’s literally an inch off my waistline. And man does that feel good.
If you look at the chart at the bottom, my weight loss looks like it’s taking a nice logarithmic curve downward, so I don’t expect to have lost 3 inches in waist size at the end of this all, but another inch is not at all out of the question. Which means keeping my skinny jeans all these years might actually pay off.
As for the workouts, it was just another week as they always have. Crazy sore butt from the legs workout. Disappointment from my continued shoulder injury and thus my inability to do anything having to do with arms. More running and cardio in the mix. A day or two where I didn’t work out when I should have. It’s turning into quite a routine, really, which is why I didn’t even break it up into days this week. I wasn’t really saying anything new. So here’s to another week or workouts…hopefully there’ll be more to report next time.
