1. It still gives me accountability Friday night into Saturday.
2. I am usually not home on Sunday (I stay in Taylorville a lot)
3. On a Monday I don't have time to measure and take progress pictures.
Having my weigh in be on a Saturday means that I can take time to get Carson situated and possibly down for his morning nap, weigh, measure, and take pictures. If I am going to be out of town on a Saturday, I can just weigh on Friday. Plus, if I have a loss on Saturday I am usually really pumped and stay on track for the rest of the weekend. It's a win-win.
With that being said, here are my Saturday weigh in results:
(Remember, I started fresh)
Starting Weight: 250.0
Previous Weight: 249.9
Current Weight: 248.7
Lost/Gained: -1.2
Total Lost: 1.3
Inches Lost: ??
I need to get my measurements uploaded into my tracker sometime this week. I keep forgetting my notebook where I have them written down.
I feel great.

Weekend Recap:
On Saturday I got up early, per Carson's fussing, and got us both dressed. I had intended on going to the Farmer's Market but my date, Cathy, couldn't go this week. I opted for us taking a walk in Washington Park instead! After running to Hy Vee to say hi to mom and buy a few things we needed, I met Cathy at the park. We took a nice walk around while Carson slept in the stroller and then after he woke up we put him a baby swing for his first ever park swing experience.
Obviously, it went well.
After the park we went home to get cleaned up and then mom picked us up so we could spend Saturday night in Taylorville with the family. Andy's birthday was Monday and we were celebrating that night with dinner.
Sunday consisted of lots of chores around the house while great-grandma Dorothy played with the baby. Thanks grandma!

Running:
I had done a post about how I missed running and really want to get back into it. My walk in the park Saturday was an eye opener of "I desperately need new shoes". My Brooks Ghost felt super tight around the tops of my feet and my toes. My feet have changed since having Carson. I asked Andrew if I could go get fitted for shoes and he said yes, as long as I could bargain shop and get a pair for under $100. Challenge accepted. While great-grandma babysat yesterday, we ran to the Springfield Running Center (shop local!) and I got fitted for new shoes. I am still in a neutral shoe which is good but I have gone from and 8.5 to a 9.5! Thanks Carson!
I tried on Brooks Ghost 7 and an Asics Cumulus 16. I love Brooks shoes... but the Asics.... oh the Asics. They were SO comfortable. I even jogged around the store in them.
Love them! I cannot wait to take them out tonight. I hope the weather cooperates!
How was every one's weekend?




Is Carson having fun or what?!!!! No offense to past or present babies, but I think he is the cutest baby ever!!!!
