Gain of .8 lbs - last 2 weeks

Well I didn't weigh or blog last Wednesday, because we were in Disney World!  We had such a great time and walked quite a bit.  We averaged about 6 miles per day according to my FitBit.  I ate, and enjoyed myself.  I find myself nowadays eating less, because I'm allowing myself to reach the satisfied level before getting full/stuffed.  I don't feel bad if I don't eat the whole meal.  Usually, I would tell myself, well you just spent "x" number of dollars on this meal, you might as well get your money's worth.  That saying is not worth it to me anymore.  I eat until I'm satisfied and that's the end of it.  So I gained a little over the last two weeks, not quite a lb though, only 0.8 and I am OKAY with that.  I had fun and now it's time to get back on track to my weight loss journey.  Still a little tired today, so not sure if I will make it to Zumba this morning.  We are also headed to Christmas Town at Busch Gardens later this afternoon, so more walking!!!  =)   Until next week my friends, have a safe and Happy Holidays no matter what you choose to celebrate this weekend.

Loss of 4 lbs this week!

So this past week, I lost 4 lbs which put me at my 30 lb milestone (well 30.6 lbs lost so far).  I am uber excited! Of course, it tells me that I'm losing weight too fast and I should aim for no more than 2 lbs per week, but trust me, this girl is not starving herself!  I only ate out once this week, I had Chinese (my weakness); however, the Chinese restaurant is no longer on speed dial on my new phone.  I actually looked at the menu and decided how hungry I was before I ordered.  Although with Chinese, their meals are always for 2 or more people anyways, so you can't exactly order individual portions.  I only had one serving and threw the rest out, because no one else was here to eat with me.  I only had one regular soda this week and split it up between two days, the rest of the days I drank water and a diet soda here and there.  I needed some caffeine!  I exercised at Zumba only two days this past week.  Last Wed and last night.  On three other days though, I did a Power 90 dvd and a walking/tonining dvd since I couldn't get to the gym for some other reason.  I'm really proud of myself this week and I only hope to see the scale continuing to go down for the long haul!  :)
