Last weekend we were in Wisconsin for the weekend for my husband to go hunting and for me to spend time with my Mom. It was a busy weekend and really our first road trip since trying to lose weight. My husband will tell you that I'm a junk food junkie. If we stop to get gas I always want to get something to drink and a snack. So this road trip was both a test of will and a visit home. We really tried our best to eat healthy on the road and at home. So you can imagine my shock when I went to weigh in, after the last two weeks of -.2 and +.4 when the scale said I lost 5.8!!
5.8 pounds??
My leader was shocked and so was I, though pleasantly of course. Over the 20 weeks we've been doing WW I've lost 51.6 pounds. In real things, that's like 2.5 bags of dog food.
FIFTY-ONE POINT SIX POUNDS!!!!
Seriously?
Seriously.
My birthday is in a few days and this is an awesome birthday present, I think.
Just a reminder, if you haven't read my Holiday Alternative post you might want too, it offers some healthier options to the usual Thanksgiving fare.
I wish you all a very happy, healthy and safe Thanksgiving. I'd love to hear if you come up with any new healthy Thanksgiving traditions or recipes!!
Post the 50 pounds in your stats! (you're only taking credit for 45.8). Keep kicking ass through the Holidays! And thanks for the chili recipe.
