Thursday - Day Four / Week Two

The weekend is almost here - I vow to myself to do better this weekend, although we have a birthday party to go to (and yes, there will be cake and ice cream I'm sure). Since it's a kid birthday party, maybe I'll just distract myself with chasing the boys around - which won't be hard to do! Someone that read my blog thought it would be a good idea to disclose how much weight I've lost from start to right now, so here goes. Since I gave birth to my second son, and then started this diet almost a year ago, I've lost - ........DRUM ROLL....... 87 p0unds!!!!! Wow. That's an accomplishment, if I must say so myself. Especially considering I never thought I'd lose 5 pounds when I started. I had totally given up on myself. And I must say, I am glad that I gave this diet a chance. And if you really think about it, well to put it into perspective a litte better, I've lost a total of 2 1/2 of my dogs (I have 3 Brittany Spaniels that each weigh a good 30 pounds) or I've lost two of my 3 year old (he weighs about 35 pounds) and about half of my soon to be one year old. Interesting isn't it?! Oh, and I remembered to weigh myself this morning - 163.2 pounds
