Down today...

Well, I'm back down to 120.8 today, so that is a little encouraging. It still means I am 10 lbs from my goal, but I'm hopeful that I can reach that by my birthday (September 21, when your challenge ends, if I remember correctly!) if I keep at it.

This morning we had a big lawn party at the Vidmar's house (SO GOOD to see Jenn again, in her own home!) and I made a point to ONLY eat the fruits and vegetables. I stayed away from doughnuts, muffins, breads, and all the other bad for me things. I had carrots, pineapple, bananas, and grapes. And 2 cups of coffee, but I drank it black so it was calorie free!

Today I am trucking along on the calorie counting. We should be having lasagna for dinner tonight (I should get on that or we'll end up just having spaghetti instead!) so that will be fine. I need to drink more water, and I need to exercise at some point (maybe a family walk is in order this evening?) but I am encouraged by my little bit of weight loss and hope that with more work and moderation I can be down to 119 by Monday.
