Weight Lost: 48 pounds in 8 weeks… 1.8 Pounds This Week

So I am very pleased with my weight loss this week...  With my ruptured tendon I was unable to exercise much, but I still managed 1.8 pounds of weight loss...  In addition to my ankle, I was finding myself stress eating (the injury and the prospect of surgery was stressing me out), but I was able to limit my cheating to protein witch I think helped continue my weight loss...  I am a stress eater and I need to confront this head on if I am going to fix my eating habits permanently. 

Here is a graph of my weight loss (if you are reading this in the future this graph will have updated for future weigh ins as well)... Clicking the image will open to a larger image.

As for exercise...  I didn't get much... I went to the FRST and did a little exercise including the arm bicycle... twice...  I need to go more.  Next week 3 times... I swear.

I was told not to get my hopes up, but I may not need surgery... Surgery is currently scheduled for a week from Monday...  At the preop the doctor thought that I had excellent strength and range of motion in the ankle...  He is scheduling an ultrasound study and a follow up prior to confirming surgery...  Here's hoping.

I am also going to partake in the Get Fit Slowly 100 pushup challenge: following this 6 week program...  With my ankle I will have to do knee pushup, but it would still be pretty amazing to be able to do 100 knee pushups consecutively.  That starts Monday...

I set next weeks goal at 5 pounds, but I think it will be a stiff challenge to meet given my lack of ability to exercise normally.  Until next week...  Stay sexy fit blogosphere.
