Wow, it is already fall, where has the summer gone?!?!?! As of today I am down 34 pounds. It has taken 9 months, but I will take it.
I haven't been able to work as hard to get this weight off the past month, and actually went up 4 pounds. But that would be thanks to in-laws that decided to take over my house for a month. Which has helped me learn even more about what I need to do to keep dropping weight. While they where here, my stress level went up, and I wasn't able to spend the time needed in my kitchen to make my usual healthy meals. So I ate "healthier" meals that I made for my daughter. (Home made mac n' cheese, home made biscuits with turkey bacon and eggs, etc.) But I am happy to say I still am keeping my diet very low on processed junk food. And I did try to portion control as best as I could, but the past months meals were just so calorie dense, that I had to eat more than I normally would have so I wasn't hungry. Hence the stalled weight loss, which turned into a weight gain in the end.
But I am happy to say that my house is now back to normal, and my in-law stress level is low again. So starting today, I am back to walking again, and eating my healthy, vitamin rich, low calorie, filling meals. And I have cracked open my calorie log book, and started back calorie counting.
Till next time.
