HOT DIGGITY! (I've always wanted to say that!)
4.5 pounds this week - and NINE this month. That puts me a mere 1.5 pounds away from 45. And 6.5 away from FIFTY POUNDS.
How do you like that? Oh yeah - and this morning I did 25 minutes - 4w/7r/3w/7r/4w - 1.357 miles!
WELCOME BACK KATE!!!! :)
Okay - first some housekeeping - then a few more words about my success this week.
1) Sponsors - your letters will go out this week. :)
2) Non-sponsors - want to sign up for July? Make-a-Wish needs your help!
3) Contest - Annie Tennis ran away with this one. She wins two "Year of a Million Dreams" pins! Congratulations Annie! E-mail me your mailing address at jonathan@allaboutthemouse.com or Grizzpyre@yahoo.com and I'll get them out to you as soon as I can!
4) Wednesday we record our first AATM together. Topic? Glad you asked. The great EPCOT debate. EPCOT 1987 v. 2007. If you have comments you'd like to have included on the show - feel free to e-mail me at jonathan@allaboutthemouse.com - but since we're recording on Wednesday, you'd better hurry!! (Don't worry - if you get your comments in late, we'll just talk about them on an upcoming show)
Now...
I think I may have this down. Lots of water. Less to no snacking. Eat reasonable meals.
And here's the really fun part - if you're being good most of the time - occassionally you can have a treat. For instance - we went out to a nice italian dinner Friday night - and I had a nice salad and veal parmesan. No dessert - and had eaten healthily all week. And shhhhhhh...don't tell - but on Saturday afternoon - while walking in the summer heat - we stopped for a small ice-cream at Cold Stone. (I had the lite cake batter ice cream - yum!)
So I think - if I'm willing to sacrifice my snacks...I can succeed even faster - even with the occassional 'splurge'. What do you think?
Tomorrow - a plea to new sponsors - and coming attractions for the month of July! (No need to identify pictures anymore - just putting up nice ones for now. Ain't towel animals fun?)
MAIN STREET AWAITS!!!!
Congratulations!!!!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great feeling that must be!!!
I'm glad you recognized that you can't cut out all the "bad stuff" completely (veal and ice cream - obviously not together - eww!) If you behave and eat that stuff in moderation, it will make you appreciate it so much more!
Keep up the excellent work!
Woo Hoo and Hot Diggity! Way to go JD!!!! g
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on your weight loss. Though I am new to your blog I have heard you numerous times on various podcasts. All About The Mouse is a good one and I am looking forward to you co-hosting it with Bryan.
