Progress

It's only been a few days since I got my test results back and I'm already down almost 2 pounds! I can't tell you how excited I was to see a loss on the scale this morning. I've been really surprised that I haven't been craving my usual crap; maybe it's because now I know and understand just how bad it is for me. Generally, when Mother Nature visits, I want sweets and salty foods. But, this time is completely different.



Last night, all my guys ordered from Domino's. It would have been so easy for me to say screw it and ordered from there, too. But, I decided to order from the newest place in town; Subway. I love Subway veggie subs and I load them up with all the veggies I like. I usually get American cheese but I didn't last night. I wasn't going to get the low-fat mayo either but the hubby said it might be too dry if I didn't get something on it. So, when he went to get it, he made sure that the smallest amount of low-fat mayo was added. He's so great! Anyway, the calorie count with cheese is 320 and without is 280. I know, I know, 40 calories may not seem like it's worth it but think about all the fat and cholesterol I avoided.

Something has changed for me since Wednesday. I've made the decision not to drink when we go to Ocean City in July, which was difficult for me because I love the drinks in OC. But, I love my life, family, and friends more. I'm ready to do more with my family than ever before. I'm ready fantastic! That's only going to really happen when I take the weight off.

Okay, I'm done for now. My cough, instead of getting better, seems to be getting worse. Not sure if I can take anything for it since I'm on all this medication, so I need to call the doctor to find out. Have an active day!
