So, there we go. I took those measurements on 7/2/11. I was pleasantly surprised to see that at very least, I hadn't gained totally back to my former size when I began relosing my weight 2 years ago. I was well on my way, don't get me wrong! It was one result I am quite content never to reach again!!
In other news, I survived the 4th of July! I did not even touch a single bite of the 3 funnel cakes my husband bought for himself & our 4 kids. Unfortunetly, I didn't even eat dinner at all that night. As I was wandering around trying to find food that all our kids would eat, there was nothing that jumped out at me as being a part of my current plan. What is my current plan you may be wondering? Well, its not any different from what we ALL should be doing. Heavy on the protein & lower on the carbs concentrating on vegetables. I'm trying to keep the carbs around 50, protein 90+, & fats as limited as possible. There are some things I just WON'T do like fat free cheese. UGH! There are no words to describe how disgusting that stuff is! I WILL however do the cheese made with 2% milk. Less fat, MUCH better tasting. I'm drinking at least 2 protein shakes a day & either a salad or soup (minus broth) for lunch. Dinner is really what I'm making for everyone! I just take less & more veggies rather than the starch.
Still haven't found that stupid scale but the purchase needs to wait until later in the week when we have funds. Carnival rides & festival foods for 6 people takes a toll on one's budget for the week but it was WELL worth it to see how much fun my kids were having!
Some goals I now have after encountering the difficulties at the fair: Next year, I VOW to be able to sit on the provided chairs & not worry that my shifting will cause the chair to break. I VOW that we WILL stake our spot on the top of the hill again & I will be able to go up & down that hill with my kids withOUT becoming winded and/or my legs screaming in protest at having to work like that.
