Lose weight the fun way.

Just lost my second round by 1 lb..

I had platoed & had more of a difficult time acheving my goal these last 30 days. Right after I won the 1 st round I splurged all day that day & gained two pounds back. In addidtion My evening meals were a little heavier then what I should of ate this round.

I might have lost this round, however I have lost 20 lbs since Jan 14th. Really proud of myself for that. I accomplished my fitbit goal almost everyday & have increased my steps to a min of 10,000 averaging 12,000 daily, & tracking all my food.

Today is Easter & yes I am blessed & Thankful... Yes I am splurging, however Im finding it is harder to splurge I am so full after just a few bites of Ham, roll, mac&chesse, potatoe salad, deviled eggs, grren beans & pineapple cake.

What I find different... besides feeling fuller quicker then the last time I splurged...., those first few bites tasted great especailly the mac&cheese... if I were to go back for more which I won't but if I did the one thing I really want more of is the GREENBEANS. LOL That is a true accomplishment.

The one thing I've noticed is you can talk about your journey with family & friends & they all are supportive. I find myself living my life around this change & I talk about it so much & get so excited when I see that # on the scale go down or that pair of pants that I can now button, noone else really gets it . Its is so great to talk to others on the same journey as you know that feeling.

Went to the clothing store yesterday ..confused me to no end & took me forever, so use to shopping in the womans dept. I ventered into the forbidden area & was amazed that I could wear a extra large again.

This month will be most difficult ..It is vacation time & were going to Las Vegas .. so excited just a little unsure of how Im going to do.

I have found I coach myself, push myself to take those extra 1000 steps & one less bite.Thanks to my fitbit I cant live without xoxo & DietBet for pushing my boundaries that I would not of psshed as hard for. So did I really lose this round??

Last time my husband and I went to Vegas we walked for an hour every morning while it was cool, saw lots of the surrounding suburbs off the strip as a result. Walked up every set of steps we saw, no crossing roads if we could walk up steps onto a bridge, no travelators or escalators for us. Had a turkey sandwich at the Flamingo which turned out to be a monster Turkey dinner with bread underneath it (we're from Australia definitely not what we were expecting). We shared it and it was still too much! It's all about portion size, eat your meal off a smaller plate but at the same time enjoy your holiday, LOVE Vegas.
