So, OK. I lost another 2 pounds, and that's great, but I gotta tell you about yesterday, when I was so crabby. You all gave me some great support and ideas, and I decided to take advantage of having my husband home... I waited 'til the kids were all having naps (all 6!), and with him in the house as backup, I actually had time to color my roots, read a magazine article or two while the color set, and enjoy a fantastic hot shower. I've never done that with all the kids here, and I feel so naughty for doing it, but it turned my mood around completely. Plus, the color turned out amazing, my double chin is gone!!! and I look good!

I am wearing my skinniest looking clothes today, and I just feel like not only can I get to goal weight, but if I already am feeling so much better, summer is going to be phenomenal! I hope some of this good feeling translates to all of you, because it's been too long since I felt this way, and I want to share it. Have an awesome, day, everyone!

You know, I try really hard to be optimistic and upbeat when I journal, because I know I'm doing something that's important to my health and wellbeing. I want to be able to see the good that I'm doing and all that, but MAN am I crabby and depressed this morning. I am exhausted and woke up famished. I spent all day yesterday just starving, and I ate all day (approved foods, lots of celery, fresh green beans, lean pork for dinner, etc...), drank lots of water & coffee, and so gained weight. I just don't understand how there are days when I am satisfied all day and lose, and then when I feel empty all day I gain. Totally unfair! I'm sure everyone goes through the same types of things, and I'm sorry for whining. Right now, though, I could really use a full night's sleep, a big uncensored meal and a long walk with no company.

There's my rant - hope everyone else's day is great!

It's been a rough couple of days for me. My husband has been away for 9 days (he's a pilot), and the kids are really reacting to the lack of individual attention they're getting. With stress levels running high, I DESPERATELY want some comfort food, but my daily weigh-ins are telling me I need to cut back more, not indulge. I've been pretty darn good, and my scale says I've not lost even a 10th of a pound. I skipped today, so hopefully tomorrow will show some progress.

I did do my measuring today - I made myself a chart so I can watch for progress - and was surprised and pleased to see that I've lost inches, although they're mostly at the waist and above, as I'd already noticed.
I'm really looking forward to my jeans being a little loose!

Tomorrow is my big weigh day, so I'll be back then...
