So I figure a pound a week is great. When it gets a bit warmer I could increase my exercise and maybe speed things up a bit.
I am happy with how far I have come. I have maintained a healthy eating regiment for about one year now! I have not binged once this year (unless you count overeating on salad.) This is a real milestone for me, I would eat thousands of calories in a sitting. This year my highest caloric intake was about 2,400 calories.

Yesterday they brought in warm sticky buns, choc covered pretzels, and cookies and a patient brought in Pistachio cake. Guess who didn't eat ANY of the goodies!!!! ME!!!! I know it was only one day but I felt accountable to all of you and it helped me stick with water and a 100 calorie snack midmorning. Had tuna and fresh fruit for lunch and toast for supper. Okay, only 29 more days to go and hopefully 8-10 pounds gone.
Keep kicking my ass ladies-if this doesn't work, break out the duct tape and tape my mouth shut.

Had a yummy supper - a veggie burger w/ salsa and a peas/corn "just for one" veggie dish. It was yummy, but tonight's the big game (GO BIG BLUE!!!!!) and I'm quite sure I'll want to eat more watching the CATS win! LOL - can you tell who I want to win? :-). I may finish off the other veggie burger in the freezer with more salsa - that was a good way to eat it :-).
Did not make it to the gym this morning. By the time I got all of my paperwork taken care of for the errands I needed to run, it was close to 11 and I did not want to run into the next town to go to the gym. Plus they close at two on Saturdays, so it would have been cutting it close once I got my errands done, since some of the places close at 12 and I couldn't put them off. Because the gym is a church ministry, it's closed tomorrow, but I should make it on Monday.
I ended up running by the library when I was finished at the post office and spent the afternoon dozing/reading a book. First time in awhile I've let myself do that! I got 3 movies to watch and some other books to read while I was there.

My loss was 35 lbs. Then thanks to steroids I put 10 back on. I feel like I am staring over.
