The brighter side

On a much lighter note.....I did my walk of shame yesterday when I came back to work. I ate like crap in Indy and I knew it was going to catch up with me. So with my head held low I walked to the cafeteria yesterday to get my breakfast and I stepped on the scale and.................I'VE LOST ANOTHER 3LBS!!! That puts me right under 15lbs down so far!!!!

I am so surprised!!

We didn't eat much Friday because we were both a ball of nerves not knowing what was happening to Mary.

But by Saturday our appetite was back full force and we were BAD!!! We ate Mexican (hmmmmm) one night with a bunch of Mary's friends (it was the one of the ONLY times we left the hospital and I'm glad we did bc Jason needed a lil break, oh and Mary's friends are all NUTS so it was good to sit and laugh) and Papa John's the next night. Their cafeteria also put out fresh dark chocolate covered strawberries every day, can you see the drool coming out my mouth now!!! You better believe I was down there gettin those suckers two at a time!!!

I did try to watch it a little and would eat somewhat healthy for breakfast and lunch, saving the bad stuff for dinner.

On the way home we didn't eat much either, but I still expected the scale to be brutal on me when I came back.

I jumped on today even though I usually don't like to weigh myself everyday and I've got one more pound to go before I hit my 15lbs down mark!!

I have reached my short term goal!!!

Ideally my long term goal is I  would like to lose another 15lbs or so. IDEALLY. We'll see what happens. I wont beat myself up about it as long as I can maintain what I have already accomplished!! 5 more pounds and I'll be back to what I was when Jason and I started dating!!

This is the most recent picture I have of me and the most beautiful Becca. It was taken about a week or so ago and obviously I am in my work uniform. I'll try to take more pics soon.
