As for today - I did well! My loss was not as good as other days, it was a disappointing .2 but I have to look at the big picture and remember I have lost 13.2 pounds in a mere 10 days. That is an average of more than a pound a day and pretty freakin amazing.
I'll tell you, I didn't think I looked any different, until I saw a photo of myself today. I took my son out to play in the snow and realized that my face is SO MUCH thinner. I just LOOK thinner and that was a motivation boost for sure. One look at these photos...
...was enough to keep me right on track today. No double chin and my body, even under the winter gear, actually LOOKS THINNER! I am still far from the goal I wish to accomplish but I am happy that I am well on my way to being the healthiest mom I can be for my son. I do NOT want him to grow up with a fat, lazy mom. I want him to be proud of me and to see me as a role model - not as an example of what NOT to be.
I did not have even one small cheat today and feel satisfied with everything I ate. I am now enjoying some herbal tea (no sweetener or anything) and settling in for a relaxing evening with my husband. What will tomorrow bring? Hopefully a nice new loss so I can add to my 13.2! But, if not, I am happy with how I am progressing so far - it feels good to be making this lifestyle change!
