11 pounds kicked to the curb!

this week was my rededication and the start of getting myself back on track physically, mentally, nutrionally, etc. and wow am i amazed at the results i was able to pull. i am not quite sure how, aside from the obvious but i somehow managed to kick 11 pounds to the curb this week and damn does it feel good--better than the biggest, juciest cheesburger, ever. did i just say that? well damn it, it's the truth!

so this week, week 2 i am going to keep on pushing. i don't expect to drop 11 pounds again but you know what, that's ok--as long as i drop something and i continue to work towards my goal of making this happen, it's all good.

on friday night my healthy, average weight husband who is more than aware that i am on a diet, decides to bring home 2 KFC 2 piece chicken meals with cole slaw and mashed potatoes and gravy for us to eat from dinner. whhhhha? he couldn't be serious, could he? i mean hello k freakin f c dude? who does that? this is even after he bought me 2 candy bars from this new candy shop that opened nearby. i sat there sort of half stunned half irritated. i hadn't been to the grocery store and it was a toss up between eating a light mayo and ketchup cracker sandwich or taking a stab at the greasy, calorie laden KFC. i was honestly afraid to eat it because with me if i have one bite of the darkside it is sooooooooooooo easy to get hooked and not come back. i had a few bites of the coleslaw and the wing and one bite of the heavenly mashed potatoes and put my fork down. enough was enough. i gave the entire meal to dh to eat and at a can of tunafish instead. i faced temptation in the eye and although i indulged a wee bit more than i should have, the lightbulb still went off and early enough this time before i could do some real damage!

after a looooooooooooooooooong talk about being a diet saboteur i think dh knows better than to come home with candy bars and KFC again :) thankfully eventhough sin passed my lips, i still pulled out some seriously big numbers this week! WOO HOO!

until next time
