Alright. I used my teeth and vacation time as a real excuse to stop working out. I've blown it pretty bad. BUT I haven't really gained anything...I really maintained the loss from last month so far.
But I have new Motivation to lose weight and start taking it seriously again. WEDDING DRESSES!
Nothing says start your diet now like wedding pictures that you'll have a lifetime.
Time to kick it up a notch!

I'm alive!
Hey everyone,
quick update to let you all know that I'm doing well. I had my wisdom teeth out yesterday and it all went better than expected. The teeth were almost all in so they were easy to remove. I'm already taking the minimal amount of painkillers and eating some soft foods.
My wii fit said that between yesterday morning and this morning I lost 1.8 pounds. I'm going to guess that that was a combination on the teeth, the blood loss and the no eating. Too bad I'm back to soft foods already, that weight loss won't last long. lol.
Other weight loss news, I somehow lost 2.2 pounds over the weekend while visiting Jordan's family. I did my best not to over indulge and the stress of my wisdom teeth coming out probably helped me from eating too much.
I am still a bit tired from the surgery and painkillers so I'll likely start real exercising again on the weekend.
I'll update you all again soon,
<3 Steph

I am going to be Busy Busy for the next few days and then comatose for the following week :)
We're driving to St. Catharines and then Waterloo tomorrow because we've got family stuff going on with both sides of Jordan's family. We drive back on Monday and then I get my wisdom teeth out on Tuesday. I'm not sure what this is going to do for the weightloss. I'm guessing I won't be eating much after I get my teeth out, but I won't be moving much either....so even if I just stay where I am I'll be happy.
I've been really tired this week. I did my workouts and yesterday was a rest day. And did I ever rest. I went to bed at 8pm and got up around 10pm. Then back to bed at about midnight and up around 8. Can't complain about that really.
No real dramatic news to report.

EA Sports Active Update
Some people were worried that some of the exercises on the Sports active would be too jarring or would further complicate a pre-existing condition.
Today I figured out, completely by accident, that you can limit the activities to ones that you are comfortable with. It may make your workouts a bit shorter, but you can always supplement them with workouts that you create yourself.
Before every workout it shows you a list of the activities that you are going to be doing that day. They have a green checkmark at the end of each one. If you click on that check mark it turns to a red X and it is taken out of the workout for you. It doesn't seem like you can substitute it for something easier, but like I said you can do another quick workout to burn those calories.

NEW MONTH!
Hello everyone.
I have a crazy amount of Energy for a Saturday. Up at 9:40 and cleaned the livingroom and scrubbed the shower walls and the tub. This isn't typical. Jordan slept till 11....he NEVER sleeps in let alone getting up after me. It's a weird day!
Anyway. I think that one of the things I want to do is on the first of every month tell you guys the progress I've made or the epic fail that happened. I weigh myself everyday on the wii fit. I started again on July 10th so it isn't a full month, but from now on it will be.
This month I have good news to report. From July 10th until today i have lost a total of 5.1 pounds!
I'm going to do it monthly cause we all know that our weight fluctuates daily and so I think if I have a steady downward trend for the month it will show a pretty accurate reflection of how I did.
It really could have been more, but last weekend I really let myself eat and drink whatever I wanted and it set me back. So this weekend I'm making a very conscious effort to allow myself some treats but not overdue it like last weekend. I gained 3 pounds from the Wednesday night to monday when I weighed myself.
YAY!
