Over 10 lbs gone!

Hey everyone! Really happy tonight. Weigh in was great and I'm now down 11 lbs total! We both had the stomach flu last week and sometimes when you're sick your body tends to hang on to every thing you put into it to help you heal, and I was worried that was going to happen. I didn't over do it at all last week with eating, but you never know how these things pan out. But I was down 1.2 and am really happy. What even more fun is that I snuck a donut in today - and enjoyed every bite of it! Yeah I need to be good and all, but I think if we don't misbehave every once in a while you're going to really resent being on a diet.

Exercise is also helping. I'm still going to the gym at work when I can, or going for really long walks. I'm feeling good though. My DH has lost 16 lbs since we started! Good on him! He looks fantastic and feels great too.

congrats

 congrats for hitting that 10 pound mark! It sounds like you and your hubby are doing great. Keep up the good work :) 

What a boost of encouragement

You're really encouraging me today.  I love to see someone else's success when I need a little boost for myself.  Thanks!

FANTASTIC!!!!!!!

11 lbs.!!!!!! Woohoooo!!!!!  That's just GREAT!!!!   You have done SO WELL in such a short time  ---  and with being sick, too.   You should be very proud of yourself!!!  (And DH, too!)

You're right about having a little something to snack on -- once in a while.  Just don't let it become too often or too fattening!  I feel that if we dodn't eat something good once in a while --- we wouldn't stay on our program --- we'd get discouraged and quit.  So enjoy your little treat and then get straight back onto your program!!!!

Keep up the good work!!! I'm proud of you!!!!     MB
