HOLY CRAP!!!


So, if you hadn't noticed... I lost 5 whoppin' pounds this week!!! I'm down 20 total in 2 months, which is pretty darn impressive. I finally feel like my weight loss is matching how I feel. I said it before and I'll say it again, I have had little to no appetite lately and my request for recipe ideas was a big fat FAIL, no thanks to you, the readers, for not participating in the recipe share - except for my Karen and Shy, thanks guys! (that was my attempt at guilting all of you to still contribute some healthy recipes under the comments on the last post).

Here is a list of inches lost so you can visualize me now... still not ready to post a picture.

Weight:          -20lbs
Upper Arm:         -2"
Chest:            -3.25"
Waist:            -3.5"
Hips:             -3"
Thigh:           -3.25"
Abs:              -4"

Overall, not too shabby, if I do say so myself. All joking aside, thanks for all the encouragement I've been getting. It's about time to head out and buy a new pair of pants, but I'm holding out another week or so before we head out of town for vacation.

Liz - you are my hero! I am so proud of you! You are really kicking booty at boot camp and sweating up a storm. I love to watch you push through even though it is hot and the work is so hard. I love your smile and little girl giggle - it cracks me up!
Hang in there. Stacy has a terrific recipe for scrambled eggs and ground turkey. I eat it by the bowl full. Basically we just scramble eggs, brown ground turkey, add some onions and pepper and no sodium seasoning. Mix together and it is filling and delicious. My husband has been so great this last month about learning how to stir fry all kinds of veggies using olive oil and the NO sodium seasoning. We add it with a sweet baked potato and fish or chicken on the grill. Do you have a grill? That would take a lot of pressure off of your planning. We cook several pieces of chicken, fish on the weekend and have it to eat all week! If you don't have a grill, bring your meat over to my house and we will have a cooking/fun time together. You can cook for your week and we can all hang out!
We think you guys are so great and my girls also LOVE being with you two.
