Ugh! I hate watching what I eat! I have had a terrific week. Teresa took the girls pictures on Sun and then Jim and I hooked up with friends. I met with the girls at Toscana (a new fav) and found the most wonderful, awesome, to die for dish EVER! Yep, I ate it...all. Then went to lunch with Teresa and had great conversation. I do love my Cass Clay girls! Yesterday it came back at me though...
I had an appointment with both the dietician and my Dr. First the dietician who is now fully aware that I have portion size issues and I am pretty sure thinks I am a booze hound! She's got me plugging along and fully aware of what I need to do. But a bottle of water between drinks? Fine! Then the Dr who played with my meds again and told me to weigh in every 2 weeks.
So, about that weigh in....I wanted (soooo badly) to be down more than 10lbs. I knew I had killed it on Monday with the girls and that God-forsaken pasta dish!! I wanted it so much that I even tried to force myself to go to the bathroom because it had been a day or more!! I WANTED MY 10 LBS!!! Hope, Hope, Hope! Yep, not gonna happen. 9, I lost 9 lbs. I know, you're all saying "but 9lbs is good" and it is, but I really wanted a milestone and 9 just wasn't it for me. So I have, as of yesterday, lost 9 lbs in 6 weeks. Am I proud of my accomplishment, sure. Am I disappointed about the 10, sure. I have a goal of around 56 lbs, well 47 now. I am going to keep plugging along and see where this journey takes me. Hopefully someplace where I can wear shorts, a skirt or even a swimsuit and not make myself gag!
I keep forgetting to do this, but I like it so here goes:
3 things that I am grateful for:
My husband--he has been with me through thick and thin and still puts up with me.
Girlfriends--there is a certain something that happens when women get together that cannot be duplicated anywhere. The laughter, the emotions, the venting, the laughter!
The ability to dream
I still owe you a photo, I haven't forgotten!
