I'm down another pound....despite spending the whole week thinking I'd finally stopped losing weight....not in a good modd, but just updating in case anyone was interested...

So I'm down .6 since last weekend, and I still have all of this weekend to go. I'm not feeling so hot today so it's should be a light eating dat and I'm making a roaster chicken tonight...yummy and healthy!! I'm back on track and hopefully after next week, will show more of a loss and can continue on my quest to be happy, healthy and hot!

Stress and Disappointment

I am stressing myself out over this weight loss thing, and I'm not sure why. I've been weighing myself an inordinate number of times. I don't know if I'm magically expecting to be 50 pounds less....or just so afraid I'll fail that the daily weighings are reassuring....but I'm down a total of 16 pounds. Over the last four or five days though, I'm up four pounds...not really budging, although I haven't had a good weigh in in nearly a week...and I think I'm ovulating....but it bothers me. It also bothers me that I've lost 16 pounds and no one's noticed....My friend's baby is 13 pounds, and someone would surely notice if he was missing...am I that fat? I just hope I continue to lose, at a much slower pace...and that I can proverbially get over myself....and I'm glad my weight loss buddy is back in the game!

Day off weigh in and oh so delicious discovery!

So I had the most wonderful day today!! Got to sleep in late because it was my day off, which meant it's a weigh in day. I'm down a total of ten pounds since New Years!! And I am so excited. And I got to spend this wonderful day with Heather...who's helping with me with this losing weight thing (Thanks!). So we went to Subway for lunch and had some sandwiches and chips..not too bad...then we got a craving for Cold Stone. We figured out that their light vanilla ice cream with strawberries and marshmellows is actually not that bad for you. And things got even better when we went to Target and I got this neat cover for my new Ipod and I found out that they make 100 calorie chocolate bars.

So I had my first real bad day today. I did good all day, a little higher in fat than usual, since I had steak and mac and cheese, but still within limits. But we had company today....and they wanted dessert and I am oh so good at making dessert. So I made a cake and brownies...I'm only planning on having a piece of each and I know it won't break me. And I don't normally eat like that, even when I'm being fat...so I'm hoping that I can spend the week being good and we'll keep up the losses!

So, this is my official before picture...My sister-in-law took this on New Years Day. I think I look like spongebob...not a good thing. I'm going to try and wear this same outfit for every picture and see if we can notice a change...

OH MY GOD OH MY GOD OH MY GOD!!! So I just randomly stepped on the scale in passing....not thinking anything would change...and I'd had a bad lunch yesterday....but the scale was loving me....I'm down lower than I've been for the last 6 months...I am rejuvenated...and excited....and thanks to everyone who's left supportive comments...it's muchly appreciated!
