Happy Easter!! {weekend wrap-up}

Hope everyone had a wonderful day! It has been so beautiful today about 80 degrees and sunshine! Hubs went fishing and got home late last night. He caught an 18.5 in Mountain Trout! Aparently, this is a BIG FISH! Yea for him.
I had a bunch of really BIG ACCOMPLISHMENTS this weekend!!
Jack had 4 friends over on Friday to dye Easter Eggs and play outside. I fixed lunch for them all and drank my shake with a smile on my face!
Yesterday, we went to an Egg Hunt and I took Mom & Jack out to lunch (my first time out to eat without eating!) Again, I drank my shake and we went on with our fun day!
Today, we went to church and then over to Dad's for Easter Lunch. There were 22 people there! I had planned all week to partake in the lunch. Talked to my doc and decided that if I gave myself 1 free meal it would make the week go by so much better. It worked! I did great! I had 2 bites of ham, 3 bites of brocolli salad (which was the best thing there, I made it!) a bite each of potato salad, deviled egg and carrot cake.  That was it. I was satisified. I was full. I remained in CONTROL!! I am soooooo proud! Surly, this was less than 310 calories which is what I eliminated by not drinking my shake for lunch or my protein bar. You think? 
I played tennis twice this week and ran around the backyard like a crazy person 2 days in a row! 
And... drumroll please! I wore a skirt to church this morning that didn't fit last summer! I have gone down a WHOLE SIZE!!  
It is great to know that what I am doing is working!! I feel good and I am looking better. Healthier.
Till tomorrow... Weigh-in and the start of week 5.

Tired Long Week!

Wow! This has been the longest week! I have been SUPER BUSY! I have been getting in all my shakes & the bars and the scales have already DROPPED!!! It is TRUE! I mean I know it is but for some reason in my mind I think that the less I put in the quicker I will lose. NOT TRUE!  I vowed to make sure to FOLLOW THE RULES just as I did the 1st week (I lost 8 lbs that week!) and it is working!!
Had my 1st Tennis lesson last night and it was so much fun! I think this will be my sport! Ha! other then volley ball in middle school I haven't really ever played a sport! Tried softball in 4th grade- not for me. I am going to stick to swimming and tennis. Maybe by next year I can go out and play in public and not be embarassed!

Wish me luck!!

Weigh In # 3

Sorry, for the delay. After last Wednesday when I had a disagreement of sorts with Tina I was just in a bit of a FUNK. I am better now. I cleaned and cleaned and let the OCD take-over and I feel I got the control back. I am the type of person that lets it roll and lets it roll and then I explode. I hold it together really well, for the most part but for some reason she is the one person who can tick me off push my buttons and send me into a tail spin in 3 mins flat. AH!! The real success of the week was that I did not eat or drink or do anything to hinder my weight loss success. I called a friend talked it out and carried on with MY LIFE!

As for this weeks weight loss report.... 3 Lbs

It wasn't as good as last week or the week before, but it is still a loss. I know why I didn't lose as much. I didn't drink all my shakes! I had such a hard time getting that last one down at night. I MUST drink all four and eat the bar EVERYDAY this week and we will see if it aids in the weight loss.

Wish me luck!
