week 5

Well I knew this was coming. And I am completely OK with it!  I had no change this week. I had a rough couple of weeks and am ok that this was the outcome. So hopefully this next week will be better. I am trying really hard. I struggle so much in the evenings after the kids have gone to bed. I just want to munch. I realized last night that the first couple of weeks I had lots of fruit and since it is 0 points I was able to munch on that at night. But the last couple of weeks we didn't have any extra money, so no fruit and it has been a struggle! So hopefully I can get some fruit soon. Apples will be good now and they last forever so I will stock up on those. Maybe I can get to the farmers market and get tons of them at a better price too. So praying this week goes well and that there will once again be a loss!!

Week 4

Last week was week 4. It was awful:( I prepared myself for the worst (a gain) and prayed I would just stay the same. It was a hard week. I was feeling down and I am an emotional eater, so I really struggled. But when I weighed in, I had lost another 2 pounds!! I could not believe my eyes!! Praise God! So that takes me down to a loss of 10.5 pounds in 4 weeks!! I weigh in again tomorrow already. It has been a little better than last week, but still a little harder than in the beginning. Not sure why the first 3 weeks were such a breeze? Maybe it was some sort of rush at starting something new and succeeding and then the rush kind of wore off? Not sure. But I keep trying. Everyday I start over. Keep me in your prayers as I continue on!

week 3

Another week gone, another 1.5 pounds gone! Woo-hoo!! I was worried cause I weighed myself Friday and I had gained, which was totally annoying because I have totally been staying on points!! But then I weighed Saturday (the day I weigh in) and it was down again. Just normal fluctuations I guess.  So that is a total of 8.5 pounds lost in 3 weeks!!! And no I haven't taken my measurements yet Karen:) I don't have a tape measure, but my mom does and I am going to her house this Friday, so I will try to do it then!!
