I changed my weigh-in day to Friday, my favorite day of the week. I've maintained my weight since the last weigh-in, even though I did quite a bit of emotional eating.
Overall, I really feel like I've been making progress. I've been focusing on taking care of myself in every way. I went to the dentist, dermatologist, got a mammogram, a pedicure and a haircut. LOVE my haircut. Yesterday, I went dress shopping and was happy to fit a size 14. I bought 2 dresses, 2 pair shoes and earrings. I haven't done that in YEARS!!
My husband quit his medifast weeks ago and I've been sampling his vegetarian leftovers from it. It is good! There seems to be alot of soy protein in the packets, so they upset my tummy. But in general, I'm staying away from the wine, sugar, white flour and have been vegan. Mr Jones has been doing well, following my lead in the food department, more or less, and he's started spinning. He loves it. I'm so glad for him!
Next week, the kids will be out of school, and I will need really be aware of my emotions and not overeat. My self care will be pretty much on hold until fall, unless I can learn to meet their needs and my own simultaneously. Other moms do it. It think I'll make it a goal!
Congratulations on maintaining the weight loss and clothes shopping. I did a little clothes shopping myself this week. It is always fun to buy a smaller size. ;-)
ReplyDeleteGood luck with your new goal.
