Challenge 8 Results

Did you like this week's photography challenge? I did! While I couldn't remember to photograph my food for an entire day, I did tackle the self-portrait challenge.

Here's one on my new favorite parts on my body:


I stare at my waist anytime I walk past a mirror now. Sounds narcissistic, but it's true. It's been a long time since I had a waist worth looking at. Sure, my midsection is still pudgy in the front, but the sides have gained some serious definition. You can actually see where my ribs end - the gentle inward curve that reverses out to my hips is smooth, without an extra curve of chub in between. Much better than my starting point!

This week's weigh-in also was a happy moment. I'm still at 199, holding strong below 200. Another four-tenths of a pound and I'll have lost 5% of my body weight since starting Weight Watchers. (I love their new Weight Tracker program - perfect for stats nerds like me!)

Thanks to Krissie for this week's challenge. If anyone else has an idea for a weekly challenge (can be any of the three or all three topics) please e-mail me and we'll try to work it in!

So how was your week?
