A Nice Loss - yay!

R2 P2 VLCD 1 complete after break - Yesterday's weight 238 - Today's weight 236.5 - 1.5 (+ 3 from LIW before break)

Well yesterday went fairly well. I had a chicken salad with balsamic vinegar for lunch and a taco salad with lean ground hamburger and tomato salsa for dinner. It was nice to see a 1.5 pound loss. I was pretty busy yesterday, so I had trouble getting the water in, so I was afraid that would affect any loss this morning, but all is good! I will make sure I get all the water in today though.

Thanks Biz and Becca for your encouraging words yesterday. It really helps.

I have a request for all my friends out here in blog land if you don't mind.... It's been very cold up here in Washington this spring and our crops that we have planted are not getting the warmth they need to come up from the ground. We already have one field that is a total loss and so far, it's iffy on the others. I count my blessings that we are not under water right now like many of the folks in the midwest, however, I am a big believer of good prayers... so any prayers would truly be appreciated for us right now! We really need some warm weather in order to snap out of this, and so far it's looking like another stint of rain and cold. Thank you all in advance! :)

Home again, home again... Jiggity Jig!

Hi Ya'll! I am back from the beach and my son graduated from high school on friday. Phew.... I am so glad he made it! :) I have to say, I was not too protocol friendly while I was gone. So consequently, I have pretty much negated any progress I had going on! I am such a backslider!
Well... time for confession! Here are my stats
LIW before my trip 233.5 - Today's weight 238 + 4.5 pounds and a stall of about 3 weeks time. But I will get back with it and see what kind of progress I can make in the next couple of weeks.

I should have come to blog land right away when I got home to see all of my inspiring friends. It has really motivated me to see what everyone has been up to! (Thank you all for always being there!) .....But.... I was so busy "catching up" and trying to handle graduation things, that I just didn't seem to have any time to head on over and see everyone (BIG mistake!). Plus TOM was around, bringin' me down... I didn't have my head in the game. Well, here I am now, so .... I am committed to get back with it!

Here are some more confessions...Last weekend I drank beer, yesterday I ate salmon BBQ'd with butter and honey and a cupcake with chocolate frosting that was much too sweet. I had a hard time sleeping last night cuz my gut was churning. So anyway, it's time to get back to 500 calories and "cleanse" away my sins! LOL
