Now that is not a very original title, but about all I can come up with. Let's see how this blogging goes. Seems like it would be simpler to just blog instead of journaling.

Today, I have had about 24 carbs. Not bad. Been back to this woe since January 3rd and so far have lost 20lbs. Stats: 306/286/145. Praise God that I have bid farewell to that 300 mark. I am also praying to one day bid farewell to the 200's --

Today we went to a transportation museum (one of my son's favorite places). Missed the train rides -- they do not do as many in January...

i am tickled pink about today; i deserve a smiley face.
we had a birthday party for my grandmother and the food list was TO DIE FOR- (not including the whipped topping cake)
I didn't eat one bite. instead of eating, i made my way around the room to converse with everyone. my grandmother has dementia, so once you begin talking to her-it actually never ends.
i don't visit her as often as i would like, but i often get emotional like i did today. after the third time she asked, "who are you"? i went to the bathroom to shed several tears. my usual therapy...

I didn't get to finish my workout last night b/c of the fire alarm, so tonight when I went in I finished my 3 laps and in addition I did 30 min on the elliptical!! I feel unstoppable right now. I am just praying that I continue to have this excitement even after the challenge is over.

Menu

B: 2 Egg and Sausage Muffins
L: 2 Slices of Chicken Alfredo Pizza - inspired by Papa Murphy's (from recipe room)
D: 1 Slice of the pizza and a green salad

Well I missed posting on Days 6 & 7. Day 6 went fine. Day 7, not so good. Let's just say I got thrown into a trance by the hot donut light at Krispy Kremes. Then, since I'd already fallen down, I decided to eat all the stuff in the house that had been calling me all week. It only amounted to a handful of lays potato chips and a handful of milk chocolate chips, but way too much all the same. As far as binges go, not to bad.

Back on track today but scared to weigh. I'll wait until Monday.

B: steak ums with cheese

Yesterday I woke up and weighed the same as Thursday--125.8. Yay! Then I proceeded to drink too much coffee, not enough water, eat pizza and on and on...Oh well. Today is another day!

B: latte' and almonds
L: latte' and almonds
S: beef jerky, cucumbers, almonds
D: probably a chicken tostada, minus the tostada and plus avocado
S: 1/2 zone bar (if I feel like I need it)
