Woo-hoo! I weighed in today and I’m down 3.4 pounds from last week! Yes! I’m so pleased. I feel like I’m on the right track this time; the track that leads to permanent weight loss. This was just the perfect ending to a great weekend.

I got an address for my daughter yesterday. I am as happy or happier about that than I am the weight loss. I’ve been writing a little everyday in a letter so I can drop it off in the morning and start my next letter.

My tea time with my sister was great. We tried around 9, count ‘em, 9 different hot teas! We didn’t have the cookies, though. When we asked our hostess about them she said, well, your in luck today b/c we’re out of cookies. However, we do have three desserts to choose from. Carol asked me if that was okay b/c she knows I’m trying to eat healthy. I said it was fine so we choose the lemon pound cake over the chocolate b/c we thought it would compliment the tea better. We were afraid the tea might over-ride the tea and we wanted to taste the tea. So, they brought out a huge piece of lemon pound cake and I thought, oh, well; I guess today will be the day I use all my flex points!  :)   There were about 4 different teas that I liked but only brought home one: an herbal tea called Blood Orange. It’s so good. I’m going to enjoy a cup after while.

That’s it for now; I have to exercise and get ready. I’m going to the doctor this morning before church. His office opens at 7:00 and I’m supposed to go back and let him check my blood pressure again before refilling my blood pressure medicine. Then to church, the Y and grocery shopping. Busy day but a good day. I can’t wait to tell the doc that I’m 3.4 pounds closer to being off my blood pressure medicine!

Have a great day!
