HAPPY BIRTHDAY THIN!!!
Since I forgot to mention it before, I'll let you in on my husbands reaction to the new (in progress) me. Remember, the last time he saw me I looked like the before picture that I posted, and when he came back I looked like the current picture.
He actually came in early and I didn't know it, so at 6am I got a knock on the door. I KNEW it had to be him. I opened the door and gave him the hugest longest hug ever! Then he held me out at arms length and just stared for a minute. For DAYS he kept telling me how good I looked. Of course me and my self esteem begged to differ. I didn't know how to handle such compliments.
We have a reclining sofa, and he likes to lay down with his head in my lap while I'm reclined on one end while we watch a movie. He did this one night while he was here and fidgeted and fussed so I says "What?" and he says, "Hey, there's a bone here! That wasn't there before! Now I can't get comfy." LOL (I have hip bones after all)
We are kind of like big children sometimes, and we like to wrestle around. I used to be able to keep him down with my weight. I THOUGHT I had him down, with my arms around his neck and my legs around his middle, but then he just stood up with me still hanging on and I ended up getting a piggy back ride around the house. I can't remember when the last time was that somebody could pick me up. It was a trip.
I'm still struggling to get back on the wagon. I've quit eating all the junk food, but am still grazing throughout the day. Healthier food choices, but still too much eating. I have been drinking all my water and taking all my suppliments, which I've been slacking on lately too. Then there's the !@#$%^&* exercise. I HATE to exercise with a burning passion. UGH!! Real trouble getting motivated there.
I really REALLY want to lose 23 more pounds before my DH comes back again. I really hope I can pull it off.
Anyhoo, I'll pop in again.
Talk at ya later,
Jen
