Three months! I’ve
been doing this for three months! I
can’t believe it. That just seems like
an incredibly long time to have been on a calorie restriction…life change. When I started writing this blog and counting
calories, I knew that it would take a long time to reach my goal. Especially if I wanted to do it in a healthy
way and keep the weight off. I just
seems like it has just blown by though!
Thank goodness.
Here’s what the measurements say:
This week I have been struggling with my best friend and
partner [Matt] being out of town, recovering from a sinus infection [nicknamed
the Nast], and coping with the weird meds my doc put me on [crazy
steroids].
·
Usually when Matt is out of town, I get lonely
and want to make myself feel better by having some of my bad foods. Pizza, chocolate, wine, and other goodies
were my go-to splurges. I fought that
off this week. Woohoo!
·
When I’m sick I don’t want to work out. I just want to lay around and mope in my
sickliness…stupid Nast. With the help of
the meds, I actually worked out a lot!
·
The meds for the Nast included a steroid that
made me stay awake until at least midnight, and have tons of energy. I didn’t get much sleep, but I didn’t feel
like I needed. The real challenge will
be Sunday, when I don’t take any at all!
I feel a crash coming on.
Here’s what the measurements say:
·
Lost 1.2 pounds since Monday, Lost total of 21.8
pounds so far!
·
Lost 2 inches in the last 3 weeks, Lost total of
23.75 inches so far!
Good Weigh-in!
I still have 5 pounds to go to reach pre-pregnancy
weight! Then I will have another 19
pounds to go to reach my total goal of 40 pounds. I am just glad to be within sight of my pre-preggers
weight! I will be a very happy girl when
I get there…hopefully in about 3 weeks!
Hey, that will be right around my birthday…What a great present!
Here’s hoping I can stay on this winning streak!
