3 Month Update! Curious?


So it’s been 3-months, are you curious how things are going? Think we’ve given up?

NO WAY! We are doing fantastic with our new relationship with food. I feel like a slave set free. Sugar/carbs/processed foods no longer control my life. It’s such an amazing feeling!

Top 10 developments in the past month:

1. TT7 asked to go out walking/running twice!

2. People are starting to notice and comment on our weight loss.

3. The kids’ energy levels have tripled.

4. I have memorized my list of healthy snack foods and I make sure we always have in the 
pantry.

5. We have NO junk food in our house.

6. Fast food meals are not everyday. They are a special event.

7. I’m still struggling with the crock pot. I have mastered bbq chicken, roast, and my taco soup needs tweaking but it’s pretty good.

8. GBD has tightened his belt to a place it’s never been before.

9. I had to toss a pair of my pants in the donate pile because they’re too big!

10. I made an Emergency Meals List. When we are super busy or when I’m sick GBD can use it to shop and prepare our meals. Super busy or sick no longer = fast food.
 
My total weight loss in just 3 months = 26 pounds!!!

It’s so hard for me to believe. I keep thinking I’m going to wake up one morning and it will all be back or that 1 bad meal will put me back at the beginning. It’s weird how it takes the mind a while to catch up to the new body.

 And best of all it’s been completely free, hasn’t included taking pills, and I haven’t counted the first calorie! 

Thank you all for reading and for your support during the past 3 months. Honestly, it's been tough and I wouldn't have made it without the encouragement and support of my readers. I'm so thankful for each of you.
