Another quick update

This morning's nekkid weight: 203.0
Not sure how that happened, but I'll take it.

Last night's dinner was pretty good. It was a multicolor pasta with a lot of veggies—more veggies than pasta, actually. Asparagus, spinach, garlic, shallots, basil, yellow summer squash, and sundried tomatoes. Topped it off with a sprinkling of parmesan. It's basically a variation of a recipe that I saw on the show "Cook Yourself Thin". It turned out well, though I think I had enough veggies in there for 4 people (too much for just me and hubby), so the dogs had a really good treat. I think that next time I will cut the amount of veggies in half. The pasta was very carefully measured on a kitchen scale, but I just piled in the veggies. I guess I was just operating under the impression that veggies are good for you, therefore you must have more. I think I overdid it a little bit. Next time I'll use more restraint. =)

Quick update

This morning's nekkid weight: 204.0

Last night's dinner was another salad. It was pretty good though:

Mixed greens
Feta cheese
Dried cranberries
Walnuts
Ranch dressing (just a dab)

I'm trying to be more creative with my salads to make them more interesting. So far, it seems to be helping.

Muffin top with pride!

Nekkid weight: 204.5

Goal for May 1: 200.0

I took today off to do some cleaning, wash some laundry, and pack for a short trip we'll be taking this weekend. (And, to be honest, sleep in a little bit.) Hubby's grandma is not doing to well, and we're going to visit her in the hospital. It'll be good to see her. We'll be staying with Hubby's dad and step mom.

I have a shortage of jeans. While sorting laundry, I realized I was washing my only 2 good pairs that fit. (There's one more that fits, but it's developing a hole where my thighs rub together.) Just as I was contemplating spending the day in my underwear, I noticed a pair that I have not been able to wear for awhile. In fact, at the beginning of March, I was about 3/4 of an inch or so away from getting them buttoned, so I just put them aside. I decided I'd try them on to see if I was any closer to getting them buttoned. And they are in fact buttoned. I am wearing them right now. Honestly, I've got a pretty serious muffin top going on, but the damned things are on! Woohoo!
