So I'm still not quite down to share my number (a girl has to keep some secrets, lol), BUT I am so happy to report that since I've last posted (a month ago, whoops) I've lost 15 pounds! Thank God where I first start losing weight is right under my boobs, it's a huge jump start and ego boost!

I've been feeling great and working out a lot to get ready for the breast cancer walk in November. Plus I've been talking to a new gent, it always makes me feel good about me. :)

Hopefully next week I can report another loss, however I think lady time is right around the corner so chances are I might not lose much. Oh well! :)

Oy. The middle number has changed again.

Last Time I Reported My Weight: 148
This Morning: 150

UGH. Granted, I'm a water-retaining sea-cow like creature this week, if you get my drift, so I suspect that might have something to do with it. But still. I haven't been the world's best aspiring-weight-loser type person in the last couple of weeks. But this week, I'm back on track. Drinkin' lots of water. Eatin' healthier snacks. (Where has Laughing Cow been all my life?!?!?!) Goin' to the gym. I'm actually hoping to supplement starting Saturday by restarting the Couch to 5K program for, like, the third time. Third time's the charm, right?

In happier, Amanda-is-going-to-be-nice-to-herself news, I kind of love how my shoulders are looking. I can definitely tell that I've been lifting arm weights. I guess my main goal at this point is to look as good as possible by the time Comic-Con happen, which, now that I think about it, is kind of weird. Comic-Con is kind of about celebrating that geeky, not-so-much-with-the-caring-what-other-people-think-about-us side. I'm hoping to hit some of the industry cocktail parties, though, and I'd like to go sleeveless, since it's July and all in San Diego.

Plus, there might be cute guys there. Always be prepared. Hope you're all well! :-D

I'm waiting for some members. I've sent out a few invites and hope that folks are ready to start their journey. I've been on mine for a very long time and am finally seeing some serious results again. Lots of learning and tweaking going on to get those changes but oh so worth it! I hope to share that experience with others!
