Weight loss during the holidays…

…is never easy, BUT I’ve managed to lose another 2 lbs! I’m now at 172.8 and I’ve got 2.8 lbs to reach my year end goal. Even if I cannot lose this before Dec. 31st, I am declaring victory! I started at 197 lbs and I’ve lost 24.2 lbs since May!

Now, if I can just get my skin to clear up, I’ll be one hot momma! Hehe.

Seriously, I got into a pair of pants that I haven’t been able to squeeze into for 4 years!



Gearing up for vacation…

We are heading out to the east to visit my family! Woohoo! Since moving out west, we really miss seeing them every weekend for Sunday dinner, and I know they miss seeing the kids grow up. It’s so great that we have Internet and E-mail capabilities to keep us in touch more regularly.

I will be flying out with Scoober, who has flown before, and Winks, who hasn’t flown before with Darling Husband (DH). I’m a little nervous, but you know, I’m pretty sure I’ll be fine. DH cannot take us to the airport as planned, but Mr. Grizzly (DH Cousin) is going to take us. It’s so nice to actually have some family close by to help us if they can. Mr. & Mrs. Grizzly are very nice people and after not seeing them since 2001 when I first met them, when we moved here, it was like we had been in touch with them ever since. Great people!

Our flight is a direct one, which I highly recommend if flying with kids to avoid having to switch planes. When it was just me and Scoober, it was no big deal, he liked to get on different planes, but with a baby, direct is the way to go! I’ll have to post about our experience when we return.



Happy days!

Mondays are my weigh-in days. I wasn’t expecting to lose much because we had company and I didn’t really do that well counting my points, but I did eat the smaller portions, or tried to. To my surprise, I actually lost 2.6 lbs this past week. I was so happy, I started jumping up and down. I’m finally under 190 and I couldn’t be happier.

I’m back on track with my food journal this week.
