Tonight we are going to Charlie's aunt and uncles house. I'm sure there will be some really delicious, bad for me food there! I'm going to TRY to have small portions. I just have to keep telling myself "This isn't your last meal! You're not starving! There will be other yummy meals in the future!" lol but lately, I haven't been the best at self control.
The Holidays are difficult at work. Everyone loves to bring in good treats like cookies, cakes, candy, bread! All enemies! But they're so darn irresistible! Especially when I'm sitting in the lounge on break, and they're just staring at me saying "You know you want me!" Arghh!! So hard to resist!! Tonight I had 4 amazing cookies that a co-worker made! OMG they were awesome! And someone brought this really good Challah bread! So obviously I won't be doing so well on carbs today!:)
I'm really excited to be writing this blog becauseeeeeee... I weighed in! And it was good!!! Actually, it was great! Here's what I got...
Previous Weight - 155.2
Current Weight - 152.8
Weight Lost - 2.4 Pounds(!!!)
Total Weight Lost - 78.6 Pounds!!!!
*Jumps around for joy!*
Yes, I was soooo excited when I woke up and decided to get on the scale. Chief was next to me as I stepped on it. When I saw that number, I was in shock! I always double, sometimes even triple check it, and it was still the same! I yelled to Chief "Yay Chief!! Mom had a loss! Mom had a loss!!!" lol!! Yes, I am his Mom:-)
Now I'm just trying to figure out what it is that got me over my plateau! Since I started doing so many things different at once, I can't really pin point it. Or maybe it was the combination of all of it? I cut way back on my carbs, started taking my thyroid medication again, and started drinking LOTS of green tea!! So who knows!:) I just know that I am thrilled and now have more hope for reaching my goal of 150 by 1/9/12!
I visited my tattoo artist, Dee, yesterday before work and we looked at her schedule. She's booked for all of January!!! So that makes getting my goal reward tattoo out of the question. So I think to give myself more time to save up money, I will wait till March and make it a reward/birthday present:-) And hopefully a "congrats" present too, for HOPEFULLY getting the PGFD job! Of course I will definitely let you all know when that happens. I am patiently waiting to hear some good news!:-)
Well folks... I have 30 minutes to go at work! I cannot wait to get home! Charlie and I are going to open presents when I get home since he and I both work on Christmas! I'm excited:-) Then Sunday morning I'm going to my brother Rick's house to open presents with my family. This year we did Secret Santa for the first time! I'm really interested to see how that goes! lol:-)
Hope you all have a very Merry Christmas!!!
Love,
Anna
