Thoughts
Woooo hoooo! Finally. I have been waiting for this. I haven’t been in the 240′s since July and the dreaded 4th of July weekend BBQ’s. I am so happy and excited and I am officially saying good riddance to the 250′s. I never wanna see the 250′s again. This week was full of hard work. I tracked my food almost everyday (including the weekend). I also exercised 4 out of the 7 days. The weekend was so packed that I had no to time for any real exercise. All in All this week was great.
Today is also weigh-in day for the Drop that 15lbs challenge. Please check out all the post from the last week. Kim gives some great suggestions on caloric needs, portion sizes and making good food swaps.
My weekend was great. I got a bit of OT in and I celebrated one of my besties marriage. I was kinda scared that all the reception food (roast beef,baked potato,green,beans, pasta alfredo) would mess up my progress this week. I ended up eating 2 rolls & two cupcakes! #FAIL. To make up for it though I did dance the night away with my mama (who was stealing my shine! lol) and friends. Here are a couple of pictures from that night.

I ended up heading straight to work after the reception was done. My outlook on sunday was extremely dim. As soon as I sat on my bed when I got home, my body wanted nothing else to do with any physical exertion. I only ate 8 almonds during my overnight shift (which is usually when I eat tons from sheer boredom). Sundays eating consisted of Dunkin Donuts wake up wrap,hash browns & tea. Lunch was Clam chowder with oyster crackers and Dinner was a mushroom,onion & garlic with fresh mozzarella pizza. I tried my hardest to make decent choices this weekend as to not sabotage my entire week of good work. Obviously I did better than I thought.
How was your weekend? Do you find it harder to maintain your eating on the weekends like me?

What gorgeous pics – you all look beautiful!
Congrats on the loss: that’s awesome! I *do* find it harder to maintain the good eating habits I manage all week once the weekend rolls around. It’s frustrating.
P.S. Love the new blog design!

You look STUNNING in that dress, Mama! I love, love love it. Also, great job in the weight loss. I’ve been MAJORLY slacking and – as you read – fully intend to get back into it THIS WEEK. You’re doing such a great job…what an inspiration you are!
PS – so jealous that you can wear orange!
