Loving This Journey

It has been a pretty good week!  I have been sticking to my tracking pretty well during the week, though I have slacked on the fruits and veggies.  This weekend I watched what I ate, but I didn't track that well.  It's okay though.  I know I can not stop enjoying the things I like.  Yesterday, I went wine tasting.  Normally 1 wine tasting doesn't throw me off too badly.  But, there was a special wine trail going on so we went to 4 wineries.  I half expected to gain tonight, but was happy to find out I didn't.  I was hoping to hit my 10%, but maybe next week!


I need to keep it short, I started teaching summer school today so I have some work to finish up and I need to get to bed early!


Have a good week!

Because It Works

So I slacked last week... I had a friend in town and then the heat just had me feeling beyond lazy!  Last week was a tough week with my house guest and then the heat my eating pattern was out of whack!  But surprisingly it did not have a negative impact.  I ate out a bit while my friend was here, but we did not have as many meals and I was pretty mindful about what I was eating.  I honestly expected a gain this past Monday, but was happily surprised that it was just the opposite!  I am very close to seeing my 10% goal (2.2 pounds away!!!).  I am sort of seeing it in my clothes.  My pants are loose but I can not go  down a size yet.  My tops are baggy.  It is a nice feeling for sure!  I still have quite a bit to lose, but I am taking it one goal at a time.  Hopefully I will be achieving my first 10% goal very soon!  Starting Monday, I will be back to a somewhat normal schedule because summer school starts.  I think it will make it easier to track and eat meals at a normal time.  :)
