Week 13

Tuesday was Weigh Day. Since we had passed our three month mark, I also wanted to take new measurements. Briana was nervous and excited. She wanted to get on the scale all by herself, so I stood back and gave her some space. There isn't much for me to say here. The results speak for themselves:

Weight
Week 1= 227 lbs
Week 2= 207 lbs
Total loss= 20 lbs

Waist
Week 1= 48.25"
Week 2= 45"
Total loss= 3.25"

Left Arm
Week 1= 12.25"
Week 2= 13"
Total gain= .75"

Right Arm
Week 1= 12.75"
Week 2= 14"
Total gain= 1.25"

Left thigh
Week 1= 26"
Week 2= 24.75"
Total loss= 1.25"

Right thigh
Week 1= 26.75"
Week 2= 25.5"
Total loss= 1.25"

Neck
Week 1= 20"
Week 2= 18.5"
Total loss= 1.5"

I was stunned and amazed with her results. Briana was beside herself with excitement. She called her day program and her mom immediately to share the news then said, "okay, let's do it!"

We got to work. We worked hard. Her enthusiasm came and went. She got frustrated when I pushed her. She told me to leave her alone. She quit then started up again as soon as her discomfort passed. She gave me high fives then refused when she was unhappy. She broke a sweat and cheered herself on. She asked how she was doing, and was happy with my approval.

This is now our pattern. This is now our rhythm. And I love it.
