So Dave and I are back on a diet. We laugh because we are opposite of the rest of the world, we start in the winter and fall off during the summer. Oh well. I was excited because this week I lost 4 pounds!! I've never lost that much during a week (It probably helped that I was sick and threw up a pound or two??) I'll take it anyway. Dave of course lost a lot more (he always does) a whole 7 lbs. Way to go!!
I'll post a few tricks I'm doing every once in a while. This week my trick was to do one thing during the day to brag about to Dave that night. Hence the title, I'm celebrating a little success everyday.
Mon - I didn't eat the kids leftover mac n' cheese
Tues - When I craved sugar, I ate a bowl of oatmeal with Splenda
Wed - I walked to school instead of driving
Thurs - I weeded the garden (or should I say Jungle)
Fri - My goal is to not raid the kids Trick-or-treat goodies. OK maybe one, but then I stop!
So there's my secret. It is really fun to have to think of something that I have to be good at everyday:)
P.S. Happy Haunting everyone. I'll post pictures of my cute little goblins tomorrow!
