Good Decisions

Well, I had a mini-milestone yesterday. It was my turn to bring the birthday cake to work for a co-worker. I got a great oreo cake, and I didn't have a single piece. And I was okay with it. I came home for lunch and had my sandwich and fruit like it was no biggie. Usually when I bring the birthday cake, I take home the leftovers (and hide them of course!!) to enjoy while I watch Grey's Anatomy. Not this time!! And my first weigh in is this Monday. I would normally be tempted to have this weekend be a free for all before I weigh in, but I really want to get started off right. I'm excited.

Mostly I'm excited to get my weight loss jump-started because I saw some pictures of myself today, and oh my goodness gracious. I would look a lot thinner if it wasn't for my boobs. And my arms. And my thighs. Okay, so overall, I need some help. But man, my boobs just looked ginormous. I might post one of those pics in the kitchen to discourage myself from plowing through a bag of cookies. We'll see.

You're so funny!! And relatable :) My husband travels for work, and I usually cant wait for him to leave so that I can go shopping and load up on crap and have a huge junk food orgy by myself on the couch. Horrendous behavior!

Your excitement is infectious - good for you!!!

I forgot to mention that he is leaving on Sunday for 6 days.

I am making the vow now: NO JUNK FOOD ORGY... I may have to go and post this on my blog to remind me I made this promise :)

I will miss thee, junk-a-palooza :)
