Phhew long time!

Its been so long since I posted, you know how life gets so busy! We have been to concerts and birthdays the last 10 days.  And let me tell you - I have sucked the diet up..lol  I mean I was still loosing, but not that wonderful .5 to 1 pound a day. 

But with time to be home and focus now I can start doing better.. I have lost 27 pounds to date.  I hope to loose at least another 10 the next two weeks!

Today my older kids noticed that mom's boobs are going! YEAH I hate these things - I have a 38DDD that sits upon my chest.  They are one thing that I will not miss, but sadly my husband will miss them...I think he will get over it!

I have been browsing for plastic surgeons in Seattle, I have decided to do a "mommy makeover" as they call them - they do a tummy tuck combined with a breast lift - reduction and a small implant to make them "up" again.  Prices vary, and finding a skilled surgeon scares me.   So if anyone has any knowledge of one - Even if its in Spokane, let me know!   Tyler has one request that they will not be "crooked" when I have them redone! lol

 I feel great - as usual.  I could sure feel the difference in my body when I would just have a "bite" of this or that, the last 10 days.  I had a piece of bday cake and I swear I had a sugar hangover the next day..headache and fatigue..it was NOT fun!  But yes my homemade chocolate cake with Italian frosting WAS worth it!

Well its time to refill that water bottle..yet again

FINALLY!

Last week, I didn't not loose a full pound - I think it was due to my lack of water intake since I was out in the garden, working and sweating it out.  I hate hitting a plateau - but luckily yesterday I dropped 4 pounds in one day!  To break the plateau, I increased my caloric intake, and cheated on Saturday night, and Sunday night.  It confused my body (what she is taking in MORE?  We better start burning those) - that is what my hypothalamus said..lol  And it worked!~ 

24 Pounds are gone now..yeah me!

I am going to start walking a mile this weekend, as I can after the first month..my body has adjusted to the low calorie lifestyle, and it will hopefully burn more or at least tone me up!

Till later!

ONE MONTH!

WHOOHO!  I am finished with my first month!

And it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be - I lost a total of 20 pounds this month and
I feel better than I have in years!

I was hoping to get to 30 lost this month, but as I have been in the garden sweating my fanny off, my water intake has been lacking - and I am holding on to the same weight for the last 3 days.

I hope to make it up this next month and loose more than 20 pounds.  Still feeling great, energy is still high, and I am very happy about this months progress-I can't see a large difference yet, but Tyler can - he has the trained eye to see where I am making progress. (all those years personal training)  I am going to start walking about 20 minutes a day, I have been in the gardens for about 6 hours a day for this last week, and that has wore me out. 

On to the next goal!
