1 + 1 = A lot!!

Why does stuff add up to so many calories??

 Drives me crazy… I mean, you think you've been good at lunch…
Eaten coarse crispbread, a little cold chicken, a tiny hint of margarine, a small cup with of tomato soup and voila, just like that the calorie count shoots through the roof.

So damned annoying. That, and the wretched smell of freshly baked onions and hamburgers that hang in the air…

Not fast enough

I'm probably far too impatient, I know. I just wish I could see further results faster.

Don't get me wrong... I'm very pleased with my 130,9 lbs and my 16 lbs loss so far.
It's just that the first pounds dropped so fast and now I feel like I've looked at the same number for ages even though it's only been four days since I reached Goal Weight 1. 

Gotta get a grip of my self.
Loosing weight faster than I have done so far would probably not be healthy at all.
It's probably not healthy to loose the weight the rate I have in the first place.
Who am I kidding - my ultimate goal weight is definitely not healthy for a person my height...

Skinny jeans

So I didn't find any when I was out looking on Thursday. But Saturday there was no alternative. I had to get some new jeans. Tried on my old ones and I felt like I was wearing a sack tied around my waist. 

Haven't seen anything so unflattering on me since I was fat !!

So I went shopping Saturday and finally found a pair of really flattering skinny jeans. Put them on and my man suddenly opened his eye *lol* Found a sweather when I came home that I haven't been able to use in years as my fat tummy made it awful to wear.
Now it with me like a glove and together with the jeans I felt like a million skinny bucks!

This was the big family birthday weekend, so had to work really hard on not overeating. Taco, Pizza, cakes, ice cream the works has been offered me from all parts this weekend. Did a good job on Friday, a terrible job on Saturday and a great job on Sunday standing up for my new skinny me, saying No Thanks!

Really proud of my self even though I haven't lost that much weight since thursday - that's ok. 

Today is Monday and a new week has just started... I'll toast to that... with water and a couple of diet pills Wohoo!

And the winner is...ME!!!!

So to really boost my confidence and pat my self on the back for work well done... I went shopping yesterday.

Initially I was looking for a new pair of skinny jeans.... A pair two sizes smaller than my old pair.

But as I didn't find some I stopped by the shoe store and found a pair of boots that I simply fell in love with.Just a wee bit more pricey than the jeans I was planning to buy... but what the heck. I've probably saved that amount on not eating chips and chocolate the last month, or not eating at all

Had dinner today...

Actually ate dinner today.

Not sure that was a good idea or not...time will probably show me on the scale.

But I still managed to stay below 450 calories all in all today.

Two meatballs, one small potato, a tablespoon of sauce and a tablespoon of peas! 

And ones again - I was surprised by the fact that I actually felt stuffed after this meal. 

But now I'm dreading the upcoming weekend. Once again a weekend filled with; dinner at my in-laws, birthday party for my kid with my parents coming over and then birthday party for my nephew!!

Stuffed after lunch

Thought I'd avoid being dizzy today and since I felt rather hungry I made an omelet for lunch.

Light version. Just one egg, one egg white, light cheese and low fat ham. Seasoned with salt, pepper, chili and chives.
Ate half of it. About 114 calories and a small slice of rye bread, 35 calories.

And I obviously haven't eaten much lately, cause damned, I'm stuffed. 
I can live with stuffed after half an omelet and a small slice of bread though 

Goal Weight 1 - Reached!!!

I did it!!! 

 OMG that feels so good!! You have no idea what that means to me.
I have to pinch my self in the arm - I'm below 60, I'm below 60, I'm below 60!!!!!!!

Oh and my daughter told me yesterday - Mum, I'm so proud of you

But, reality check!!! I still have two more goals to reach and 12 pounds more to loose!.
And they will probably be harder to reach. So let's go fill up that water bottle and get to work !!!

Dizzy day

Had to give in and go eat something.
Actually first time during these weeks that I've felt really dizzy and that I needed to sit down in order to not to fall over.

Worst part is - I wasn't even hungry!!!
So now I'm stuffing 98 calories that I feel I don't even want. 

Just hope I don't get hungry later. Was hoping to stay under 400 calories today.

Good morning scale!!!

Went through my closet this morning searching for a pair of pants that still fits me.

Had to put away four pair that were way too big !!!!

Finally found a pair of suit pants that, the last few times I've worn them, have been pretty tight over my ass and thighs. Put them on and - wohoooo - they hang of my hips in the most sexy way.

OMG I love my new so-much-slimmer body!!!

Tuesday is a good day for water

That's easier said than done!
Especially when my good colleagues thinks Tuesday is a good day for waffles.

I do not agree with them. Tuesday is a good day for water - water and more water.
