You know I realized that when I am not stressing about how many calories are in everything i put in my mouth, I actually eat less! I dont know if any of you share the same thing but last week I noticed how fixated I was on losing weight and I worked out at the gym allot and it made no difference to the scale because as my lovely fiance said, it is simple math : I ate more than I was burning off.
So, this week has been ok. Portion control has been good and I am realizing again that I was silly to think that I could outsmart the Gods of Portion Control. Silly silly silly me …
Great news though … We finally got approval from the bank to buy the house that we have been wanting. It is just gorgeous!

It is a cute home and it has apple trees and a HUGE christmas type tree in the back. We both love the place because there is a bit of renovating to do and that is one of the things that the two of us just love! Otherwise, the home is totally lovely. Cannot believe it - this is the start of our lives! We move in Jan 25 as we have a 3 month termination period on the rental we have now. Which is fine by me, have all this time to decide what fridge and stove and all these lovely things for our new home! WOW! I am insanely happy right now!
Going to a spin class at 5pm. Going to be so fun! xoxo

Congrats on the house!! My husband and I just bought our first house as well — we’ve been married 12 years. It’s about time!! Lots of work, but I’m excited. My kids will have fun being able to play in the backyard. Heck - I’LL have fun with them playing in the backyard!!
