Weigh In | 11.1.10

November 1, 2010

This week I added more walking in my day, usually by taking the pup for a walk after work. I also am still monitoring all my food and am starting to feel more in control with portions and such. I woke up yesterday and this morning with pretty bad back pain (I get it once every 3-4 months), so I’ll go see the doc today and hopefully get straightened out.

Starting weight: 455
Last weigh in: 373
Today: 368
Loss this week: -5
Total lost: -87 pounds

Doing a happy dance with a tweaked back? Not attractive.

Onward and downward!

    Nice work! You’re awesome! I think you need a logo of yourself smiling on the scale for weigh-ins such as these :)

    Wow! Good job! It’s great to see your hard work with your portions and such paying off. Hope your back doesn’t keep hurting!

  • Gwen

    You’re awesome Emmy! Such a huge loss this week! The portion control is really paying off, plus the muscle you’ve been building over the last few months must be really revving your metabolism. Oooh, I’m psyched to hit the gym tonight now :)

    Way to go on the 5 lb loss!!!!

    Please post what the doc says about your back pain, I’d be interested to read what they say since I suffer from back pain as well.

    • http://skinnyemmie.com Skinny Emmie

      Oh, I know what it is- I get it every 4-6 months, where I get an inflamed and/or pinched sciatic nerve in my lower back. There’s no real treatment other than anti-inflammatories or sometimes muscle relaxers. I go to a chiropractor when it happens – I know some people are against them, but for relief the few times a year it happens, I will continue going. I should be good after a couple days rest.

    Wow, great work, what a fantastic week! It certainly sounds like you’ve been working really hard!

    5 pounds is incredible! Hope you get your back back in line. Have youthought about going to a chiro? A good one can work magic.

    • http://skinnyemmie.com Skinny Emmie

      yep, that’s exactly who I went to see today :) This happens every few months- my lower back and hip area gets misaligned and I need to get it put back in place. Good news is it’s usually one adjustment and I’m good for another few months. Hoping it gets better as I lose more weight.

    Awesome!!! Congrats Emmie!!! :)

  • Susan

    I’m doing a happy dance for you too! Stumbled upon your blog recently and am very encouraged by it. Thanks for sharing!

  • http://rosieisaloser.blogspot.com Rosie’s Weight Loss Blog

    That is so awesome! I don’t think I’ve ever lost five pounds in one week!

  • Maia

    Congrats!! That’s a fantastic loss! Seeing that big of a drop has got to make you feel great! I’m hoping I see any sort of loss this week… Going away for the weekend to Restore Sanity was good for my head, probably not as good on my waist!

    • http://skinnyemmie.com Skinny Emmie

      I would have LOVED to go to that – whether it was bad for my waist or not!

  • Shannon Latif

    Did I ever tell you…you’re my hero?? Congratulations!

  • BAH
