Good morning! I woke up in a pretty good mood. I stood on the scale and it was down considerably, which I am sure it just me shedding water weight, but it still made me smile. It's nice to see some progress in the right direction on that darn scale.
I went to my girls school this morning where they hosted a volunteer breakfast. I was worried that there wouldn't be anything I could eat other than just muffins, but I was wrong. I grabbed myself a blueberry yogurt, some red grapes, and a bottle of water. I wasn't even tempted by the muffins, because I am not a huge muffin girl, donuts would have been another story. ;P I enjoyed chatting with my daughters teachers and friends. It was a nice way to start my morning.
From there I drove to the grocery store for some much needed produce, and meat. I paid a little more than normal, but nothing too terrible. Now I have a stocked kitchen with lots of veggies, some apples, and meat! I'm looking forward to some variety in our meals now, and not just the same couple of things to eat day after day.
Last night I ended up having a cheese, onion, and bacon egg scramble, and some pineapple chunks. It was tasty, but I was hungry later. I didn't cave in, I'm trying to not eat after 8:00 p.m.
I read yesterday that after the first week or so of low carbing your body stops craving the sugar, and your hunger pains will stop. I can't wait for that point. My hubby told me yesterday that I don't have to join him on his low carb diet. I told him nothing else has been working when I've tried to lose the weight lately, so I think I'll stick with it and see if I get the results I want. I'm wondering if I'm just getting older and my body isn't burning off as many calories as it used to. I don't want the weight gain to keep increasing until I am some pudgy old lady. I want to be a fit old lady. =)
Well I have chores to do so I'd better get to it. Lunch will be a cheddar brat and some carrots with a little greek blue cheese dressing. YUM!
