Friday Weigh In

This morning I weighed in at 138.2, down 1.2 pounds from last week.  How I pulled a weight loss is beyond me?!  Over the weekend I had 3 large dinners with dessert on Friday, Saturday and Sunday and woke up Monday morning gaining 4 pounds.  I ate really well on Monday but was having some downer days so on Tuesday I ate a bunch of crap.  When I woke up on Wed I had lost almost all of the 4 pounds and I continued going down until I lost 1.2 pounds, weird.  I'll take it though!  This weekend I am going to Leatherby's which I love and will have a not-good-for-me ice cream brownie sundae, yum!  I'm not really going for weight loss right now, just maintenance so it's all good.

Friday Weigh In

Well, I finally made it and thing are still going well!  This morning I weighed in at 139.4, down 1.2 pounds from last Friday and down 0.2 from Wednesday.  I'm still so excited!  I tried on all of my pants and shorts and all of my pants fit....some shorts are still snug but they were snug even when I weighed less. 

Last Friday I did have cafe rio style sweet pork salad and after my stomach hurt soooo bad so I no desire to eat anything, let alone dessert or treats on my retreat.  Then on Saturday morning I had french toast and it was great, but that was the only option for breakfast besides bacon, sausage and fruit.  So, I ate it.  I then had chinese that night and I ordered sweet and sour chicken, my favorite.  My stomach was still feeling weird and it was the only thing that sounded appetizing so I ate it.  I'm sure it didn't help my stomach issues but oh well.  I ate some of the leftovers on Sunday and it was 3 days of eating sugar.

After I made it down to my per-pregnancy weight on Wed, I ate a few bites of ice cream and some spoonfuls of light canned whipped cream, yum.  So, when all is said and done, I've done no sugar for 2 weeks but only had treats one day.  The other days it was just food and not dessert so I feel like I'm doing pretty well.  I am going to a catered BBQ dinner with Justin's work and I will do my best to avoid dessert, but it's usually yummy.  I'm feeling weak and really want a treat today.

I've also exercised pretty well this week.  I ran on Monday, mowed on Wednesday, trimmed on Thursday and today I walked 2.3 miles with my neighbor.

Still hoping to go down a few more pounds but for now I'm content to just stay below 140. 

I Made It!!!

I needed to write today and let you know that I finally made it!  This morning I was at 139.6, just slightly below my pre-pregnancy weight of 139.8, hooray!  I will continue doing no sugar for a few more weeks, but I'm so glad I finally made it :)

Friday Weigh In

Well, this past week I kicked butt!  I am now at 140.6, down 3.6 pounds from last week!  I have stayed strong in my resolve to not have sugar for a month and it is certainly paying off.  I have still been exercising almost every day and feeling really good about myself.

So, just as I am so close to my goal.....I am going out of town tonight with the women in my ward.  We are having sweet pork cafe rio salads for dinner with cookies, and then french toast, bacon etc for breakfast.  I don't think I'll be able to avoid all sugar but I am going to try and avoid the cookies for dessert and eat in moderation.  I am soooo close!  After I make it to my goal (which I feel super confident about this time), I am just going to try and stay under 140.  The end is in sight, I can taste it!
