Moment of Truth Mondays ... 4/18/11

Let's start this week off with a weight-loss of 2.0 lbs! That brings my total weight loss to 16.6 lbs (and 21.4 lbs since I started blogging)... And I feel every pound better... :-D David even lost 4 lbs since last week, bringing his total to 21 lbs as well!

Eating right and doing some sort of exercise has melded its way into our everyday life now... It makes it so much easier that David is doing this with me! I am so proud of him (as he is of me) and we are kicking butt!

We splurged a little bit this weekend and had dinner at Waffle House with Bryson and my dad (Thanks Dad)... and then Sunday we had breakfast at Cracker Barrel.. I had mutligrain waffles w sugar free syrup, scrambled eggs and two turkey sausage patties ... Wish I would've known that bacon was actually fewer calories than the Turkey Sausage because I got tricked! I love bacon and killed me not to order.. next time I will check!

David and I have incorporated walking into our regime... We walk around our neighborhood (1.8-2.0 mi) or we will walk around the county park (1.8-2.3 mi)... Bryson loves to go on these walks with us... However Saturday, it was 43* with 15 mph winds (which made it feel like 36*) ... He could not got with us, but I wanted to walk... There was no reason that David and I couldn't go walking as long as we had someone watch Bryson for 30 mins or so.... Thankfully my dad was able to watch him.. otherwise David and I would've went out one person at a time...

As we were walking, a car pulled up to us and it was David's friend and his wife (a very sweet couple) and they just wanted to say hi... then they said that they could tell we've lost weight.. It makes it worth while when people you don't see on a daily basis can notice the chgs... Just like the other day when I went to the doctor.. She had told me last time I was there (in March) that I could probably use a few lbs off... and when I came in last week, I had lost 14! She was impressed and proud.. and it really made my day! I love it!
