Sooooo excited!!!

SO this morning as my usual I went to the bathroom when I woke and then went to the kitchen to weigh myself. When I glanced down to see the number I laughed because I KNEW I must have fidgeted too much.. That number was just too low compared to yesterday..

I flipped on the light, reset the scale and stepped on again and did not move.... and I waited..

THE SAME NUMBER POPPED UP!!!!!!!!!!!

I did the math(which was easy) and realized I supposedly lost 4.2 pounds since yesterday.. HUH?

Is that even possible?

Yesterday I ate a new cereal for breakfast.. All Bran.., I ate what felt like a HUGE lunch... I shoveled the entire driveway of the snow that was out there already... I ate a good dinner with the kids.. I even ate a big enough helping of dessert I felt sick... ( sugar free pudding, banana, vanilla wafer and real freshly made whipped cream)

How does this compute? I was just hoping to not gain...

Oh well I figure I will enjoy that loss today and tomorrow when I show a gain of 3lbs I will get a good laugh...

Later on after kids were settled playing I got bundled up and headed out to shovel the new accumulation of snow.. While I was shoveling I realized today was January 8. That caused me to stop and pause for a moment...

December 8th was when we made the choice to make all these changes... December 8th was the day we decided to work together to fight this battle, lower portions, eat less carb, to better ourselves..

It has been 1 month.. It has been 1 month and with todays starting weight...

I HAVE LOST TWENTY POUNDS!!!!!!!

What an awesome feeling that was.. Sure, I realistically expect to see this to be untrue in the morning.. But for today... For today I have lost 20lbs!

WOO-HOO.. that is such a motivator.. That is such a milestone number.. Sure maybe on some people it is a HUGE obvious change.. It is not that obvious (in my opinion) for me.. Unless you really knew what my boobs looked like.. because unfortunately.. The Boobs have left the building....

To be continued...
