Today the weather was perfect for a walk to the park so I took a little over an hour walk with Ben and Ava. It felt really good. Tomorrow is Sunday so it is my rest day... even though I don't feel like I deserve one. Monday I hope to make it back to the gym... I have an appointment after work but hopefully after it I will feel up to going to the gym.
So also today was my sister-in-law Whitney's baby shower. I must say I never filled my plate but I did go back for seconds. I did try to stick with healthy options even the dessert I choose was the healthy option of angel food cake with whipped topping and berries. For dinner I didn't stick to a healthy option... I had a personal chicken, cashew and broccoli pizza. Tomorrow is Easter and there will be a big dinner at my mother-in-law Jo's house. I will just have to focus on not over doing it. I've had 3 bottles of water so far today... I should be able to get in my gallon like last night.
So I had 2 people comment on how skinny I'm getting today. One was my friend Autumn who I've known for awhile and who knows of this journey. The other one was Whitney's mom who I've only met twice and who has no idea of this journey. I was also called a hot mama by Whitney. Today has been a very big ego boosting day. Oh and when we went to see the play my friend Erin said I was looking really good and called me pretty. On top of all that everytime I see my brother-in-law John he always comments on how good I'm looking. I guess I need to learn to take compliments... I've never really received very many before. :) I guess it is obvious that I'm losing weight I just never thought it was that noticeable. I guess since I look at myself everyday I don't notice it... or at least that is what Ben says. Ben also said that now he can almost wrap 1 arm all the way around me where as before he had to use 2 hands and then he wasn't able to clasp his hands together. Now to just lose the last 37 lbs!
Let the lbs melt!!!
