161.0

This is just fantastic. The first time I've seen the scale move in the right direction in a LONG time. I dipped to 161.8 over the weekend and here I sit at 161. I can taste the 150's LOL. And this morning my freshly washed work pants weren't as tight in the thighs, that's nice!

The only thing that is truly hard for me on the weekends is breakfast in the mornings. I always make Bill and Dylan pancakes or yesterday biscuits and gravy. It just sucks making the other food for them and I'm not eating it. But instead I had a nice egg scramble w/cheese and a veggie sautee on the side and bacon. I think I actually prefer turkey bacon to pig bacon, a lot less greasy. I would love to find a local place that has nitrate free bacon. The pluses to not eating what they are is the tired feeling I usually get after breakfast on the weekends. Pancakes and syrup always equal a big sugar crash for me.

This week I want to continue on induction of course and work on getting the artificial sweetners out of my diet. Of course I don't think I consume that much anyhow but make sure I stick to Dr. A's rules of no more than 3 per day.
