No idea what we're on at this point, but today we start the next phase of the dieting - phase 1 of South Beach. We did decide to do this impulsively, we're both filled with regret, but we're sticking to our guns on this one as it may be the only way we start seeing that dreaded number fall.
GO US!
Now I will finish my can of green beans, affectionately known as "lunch".
Oh, I am bitter. I need my blueberries. I NEED THEM!!! And right now, I have to go to a dessert social event that the RS presidency and EQ presidency are hosting for some new members.
ReplyDeleteThere will be cookies, ice cream, and toppings. I can eat NONE of that! I had a sugar-free jello cup. It didn't help. I still feel sad. I don't need treats, I just need FRUIT!!
I didn't weigh in this morning--I was too worried that it wouldn't be good news, and I'm only in a good news place lately. :)
ReplyDeleteBut today, one of the counselors in the RS presidency (who does know we've been dieting together) said I was looking very svelte today, and one of the nice guys in the ward (who I hope is going to start dating one of my friends soon), saw me and caught my attention and said, "You look really pretty today, and I wanted to make sure that I told you that." I told him thanks and that I really needed to hear that!
I'm not sure what it is about me that looks pretty today, but I'm glad that people liked it! :)
Maybe I just have an air of confidence. Or an air of not being in a sugar-induced happy state. Not sure why that air is prettier than the happy-carb air, but...
I bought a dress when I was preggers with Andres that I thought I'd wear after he was born, and I think I wore it once or twice but I was just too chubby for it to look good. Wore it on Sunday, tons of compliments. I think my arms and thighs look thinner - yay! My baby gut may be permanent....not sure that pooch will ever be gone. Maybe I should get with it and do the Pilates every day...
ReplyDeleteI don't think I look skinner. And after the weigh in, I now know that I'm barely skinnier. But hopefully, I'll get a bit skinner.
ReplyDeleteGlad you're looking all hot!
