Take Off!

Well I am still doing well on my diet program. I have lost another 1.8lbs since Saturday. I was happy to get weighted this morning just because I knew I did well. I had a few obstacles this week. On Saturday I was upset because I hadn't lost any weight. I also was having a rough day at work. On Saturday night Mom and I headed into Winnipeg to go to Sandi's wedding reception. I was late from work, which meant I didn't have much time to prepare what I would eat that evening. Luckily, mom was on top of things and made me something to eat for the ride to Winnipeg. Although I missed a fruit for that day, I did well. We stayed over in Winnipeg and I ended up eating a big breakfast in the morning. On the way home we decided that we would celebrate Bobbi's birthday that night. Happy Birthday sis! So Since I had eaten a big breakfast I was limited to what I could eat the rest of the day, and Bobbi was bring over sushi. But I tried my best to plan it out so that I could eat, and even have desert. I think I went over a bit on my carbohydrates, but otherwise I nailed it. I only ate 5 sushi rolls! After supper I had some low fat frozen yogurt with cut up fruit on a waffle as my desert. Then Bobbi, Nick, London, Mom and I went Geo caching. It is like treasure hunting with your GPS. It was fun, and we walked so we got some good exercise.
Monday went well, I ate everything I was allowed. Now for the next two days I drink juice, eat protein and green veggies only. I am finding the days that I am not organized are the days I am wanting to eat badly. If I plan my menu the night before then I can look forward to eating it. Plus then I will take out any frozen meat or even precook something so that it is easier to just go in the morning. I sometimes get annoyed that I have to spend so much time in the kitchen. But I know it will be worth it.
So the rest of my week should be busy so I am not sure when I will get back on here. I am headed to Calgary for the first weekend in October. I am of course nervous about my eating, and about working the hair show. I feel a bit overwhelmed about the whole thing. But I know if I am prepared I will do my best.
Until next time,
Cindy
