On self challenges, loose skin & new bra

Though I did weigh myself today (no... not telling... it's higher than 3 days ago)... I'll wait 16 days for my next official report, in hopes to get another nice loss. I've never had a goal set for my weight loss before (besides the final one), but this time I feel I'd love to challenge myself a bit, so I'm gonna try to find myself at 148 lbs on the 16th of April... so, there!!! Only 2 lbs in 16 days... shouldn't be hard, but since I know it's getting harder to lose now... we'll have to wait and see *s*.

Meanwhile, here are the numbers from March' workouts:
» 6 hours on the stationary Bike.
» 1 hour 50 minutes hike outdoors.
» 26 hours 20 minutes on the treadmill (84.46 m = 135.92 km).

Total workout hours = 34 hours 10 minutes. 1 hour 6 minutes average per day. Though it's more cardio workout than the professionals & experts recommend, I still feel I don't do enough till I start weights training. Some kind of unresolved fear stops me from starting it, but I'm not sure what the source for it is.

I have to figure that one out and really take on it with all the determination I put into cardio, because let's face it: At my age, with all the lbs I've already lost - I really need to develop some muscle to fill up the empty space inside my upper body skin... Yeap, I must! If I won't do anything, I'm gonna end up with too much of loose skin up there... not a very appetizing sight just before summer. Got to do SOMETHING here!

And last, but not least... I went out yesterday and bought me a new bra. Different size, of course. The funny part is, I figured out that my last bra was the wrong size. Why? Because, yesterday I bought a bra with a bigger cup size, which doesn't make any sense since the girls are obviously becoming smaller. So the self evident conclusion is I was wrong before, and right now I have a bra which makes the girls look like their mistress is much younger than she really is. Feels good to look in the mirror and see the girls look back at me, smiling ;-).
