I have to report that I am now officially 29 lbs from my first target weight.  I am super excited and I wanted to share with anyone who happens to read this.  I have changed my  way eating and how I think about food recently.  Since we are going through money issues right now I have really changed how and what I eat.  Smaller portions have found their way to me.  Smaller portions mean less food.

I have gone back to my healthy ways and no snacking.  I think that has been the biggest factor in my weight loss recently.

I have come up with new food strategys and I will post them as soon as they are completely written.  I am going to follow them and focus on the end result is a healthy me!!

Well its been a bit since I last posted.  But I have good news to report I am only 23lbs from my first goal weight.  This morning I weighed and the weight was down.  Working in the afternoon has stopped the snacking which seemed to be my biggest problem.  I am feeling better weight wise but currently I am faced with a sinus infection.  Its not fun having these. 

I have started making healthy snacks for me and my family.  My dad was recently diagnosed with diabetes .  Now both of my parents are diabetic.  So that makes me want to loose weight that much more.  So that I don't end up being diagnosed with it.  I want me and my family to be healthy. 

Well today marks the first week of my blog.  I ended this week with a new pant size.  This has made me feel like all this hard work I have been doing is worth something.  But with all my good news comes sad news.  A friend from high school has passed away.  He was 41 years young.  To young to leave this world.  G-d Speed Todd.  May the angels welcome you into G-d's loving arms. 

I have had several good days this week food wise.  I was just able to start walking again as I had a wart removed from my toe.  Walking and swimming are two of my favorite summer things to do.  They help with the weight loss a lot. Now that the toe is better I am able to do both of these things.  Yay me!! 

I put on a bathing suit for the first time since last summer and have noticed my weight loss in the way I look in it.  I am hoping to get down another size before the big day in July but that will take a lot of work and dedication and I intend on getting there. 

Well today I have to post.  I was able to start walking again.  I have to start slow as I just had a plantars wart frozen off on Friday.  That stupid thing has slowed my walking down.  I am pushing through so that I can walk/jog a 5K on Saturday morning with my son.  It felt great to be able to do that today.  Worked in the garden like I do on a daily basis while doing my rain dance.  I just wish it would rain.  I am anxious to start getting fresh veggies from all of my hard work.  I will post some pictures once I start having veggies growing.  Don't forget tomorrow is Recipe Monday.
