I have literally been so busy, I didn't get a chance to write in my journal this week!! Let alone blog a post. Wow, I need to manage my time better, the older I get the less time I have in a day, what is going on with that? Do you feel that way too? Do tell! Tomorrow I will be weighing in again, so I will post again on Monday. Sunday, April 30, 2023, was a great weigh-in, I lost 3.3 lbs, which is so exciting, I am down to 285 lbs, and little by little it is going down. Yesterday was Cinco de Mayo, I hope you all had a nice one. Ours was excellent, we made soft tacos with Mr. Tortilla, multigrain tortillas with 2 net carbs and 35 calories each, and quite delicious, check them out if interested. We used ground turkey and the usual things such as tomatoes, onions, sour cream, romaine lettuce, and shredded mozzarella cheese, and I had 1 Continue Reading
Weigh-in #14 – I Lost Nothing!
I didn't lose even an ounce, wow huh? But I didn't gain either. So it is still a win for me. I was initially bummed out about it. I had hoped I lost something, but yeah I will have those days when I lose absolutely nothing, and that was this weigh-in. I was upset at first, my jaw dropped when I saw the weight on the scale, lol. But I had to come to terms with it, that it does happen. You just never know. You think you are doing good, and staying under your daily calories, and at the end of the week, you ask yourself. What did I do wrong? What didn't I put in, how did I go over and not realize it to the point of not losing any weight? I don't know, and I am not going to kick myself for it. It is over and done with, move on with the new month. So today how am I feeling about Sunday's weigh-in? I don't know anymore. I can only continue Continue Reading
Weigh-in #12 – Not As Much As I Had Hoped!
Even though, it wasn't as much as I had hoped to lose. I still lost weight. My husband thought I was disappointed when I got off the scale. But he completely misunderstood my expression. It is so weird. People all my life have gotten mixed messages from my facial expressions. I don't like that about myself, but it is, what it is. We discussed it and cleared the air, which made me happy. He may have been a bit frustrated about it. But I prefer to clear the air. Now, the weigh-in. I think there may have been a day or two where I may have left things out. So I would blame myself. Even so, I still feel it is a WIN because I am still losing weight, even though it wasn't as much as I would like. I try to average 2 per week, this week was only 1.3 lbs, which is okay. I went from 296.0 to 294.7 lbs. I can't wait to get out of the 290s. Now the Continue Reading
