GOALS!

Good Morning World! Today we woke up to day 16 and I have achieved not just one goal but two goals! I am down to 276.8, so I made it past my first goal of 279. Wohoo!!! And I have also lost 21.6lbs. So both goals squashed in a little over 2 weeks!!! I am so excited about this and still a bit in shock this morning. 

I couldn't be doing this without the support of all of you! I can't thank you all enough for the constant support. Everyday is a struggle to maintain this way of eating. I get bored so easy with what I am allowed to eat. Mainly this is my fault cause I am such a picky eater and won't eat alot of what is allowed. But I also am missing MEXICAN!! Yesterday I was so close to cheating for dinner. I wanted Mexican food so bad! Matt is so amazing and just talked to me about how we are just in Week 3 and it would be better if I waited until we were at least thru week 4. I think he was doing this cause they say after a month of doing things they become a habit and this won't be so bad then. So instead we went to Panera and I ordered a salad(minus of course things I couldn't have) and ate that and an apple and it was perfect. 

We are less than a month from being done with the first 6 weeks. And I am getting excited! I am ready to start the next step and add in exercise. Although that is going to be dependent on my back. I go Wednesday for an epidural to see if it can help calm the inflammation. I am praying this will happen, as I would love to be able to move around again. 

Matt and I are also excited about another big thing coming up. On Wednesday we will be at finally under the 100 day mark for Disney World. We will soon be at 99 days! When you started with over a year this marks a huge milestone. Its crazy to think in 3 months, we will be having the vacation of a lifetime. That is part of the reason I want to be able to walk, and why I am so happy this weight loss is working. I am going to be working my butt off to get my walking legs in shape come August. 

So what's next? Thursday is my next Weight loss Appointment and I will update everyone on the progress. Hopefully we will see lots more on my BMI!! So until then! Hope you all have a wonderful week! And on an important note, keep the guys in Blue in your prayers. Everyday I work with these men and women and feel so much respect for what they do and how they protect us. They risk their lives and leave behind families that love and cherish them to protect us. Remember them this week and all they do for us! 

Until Next Time:  Faith, Trust, Pixie Dust, and Me!
