Day 33 in my journey to rendezvous with Mickey at the Magic Kingdom
Well this is it, the first in a series of paydays. One month ago today I weighed myself and vowed to wait a month to do so again. Today was W-Day (weigh day). My plan for today was to step on the scale and to see what, if anything is happening. Don-don-don-da…. I got myself naked this morning and boldly stepped on the scale. 13.4 pounds down in one month. Not a bad outcome from making better food choices and moving more, hey?
Now, as my brother Gene would say, “That’s like losing a lifeboat off of the Titanic.” True, but that’s one less lifeboat that I have to drag around everyday. Right?
So I’m finding myself in a celebratory mood today. It’s good to be good. Ummm… Confession time: the night before last I said to Mike, “I want something that is bad for me, and I want it right now!” His reply, “Hmmm, I can’t think of anything in the house that would be bad for you that doesn’t have sugar in it.” Oh yeah, people, he’s got my back. An hour and a half later right before I went upstairs to bed, I said contritely, “Hon, I don’t really want something that’s bad for me.” He laughed. 🙂
Thanks for hanging in there with me, dear readers. Meet you at the Kingdom!

Holy wah. 13.4, Ma! That’s flipping outstanding. You are really doing it. Amazing, amazing job. Not to mention forcing yourself to post every day. That’s a whole other accomplishment. Awesome.

Congratulations, you are doing great. I guess the no sugar is a good way to eat. I have talked to others on the SOS and they lost too. I am a sugar and carb addict. It is hard. But I need to do it. Just to watch my sugar level. Love ya tt Keep up the good work.

Thank you, Trudy. I am a complete sugar addict, so I need to try to keep sugar-free. If I have a little sugar, then I want a lot. Is Kirk doing SOS? Love you, my sister! Thank you for all the encouragement.

I eat plain zero fat Greek yogurt. I mix in a Truvia packet and vanilla or almond extract.
