Down 5.8!

So I was on a roll, dropped 4.6 in just a few days, then went up 2, then back down.... so I am now down a grand total of 5.8 in about 10 days.


I love the organic produce delivery!  Everything was super yummy and it really helped to have fresh things on hand.  I ended up eating it all no problem and even caught myself kind of rationing out the end.  I had to go to the Farmers Market on Saturday because I ran out of lettuce, so I decided to get it every week vs every other like I had originally planned.  My second box came today and there were a few different things like this week I got peaches instead of apples.  Rebecca did not like it when she bit into her "apple" and it was something very different.

Some things I've changed are I am using fat free half and half and splenda in my coffee instead of the good stuff.  We have been having grilled chicken salad at least once or twice a week for dinner.  The Jiffy pizza dough box had a delicious recipe for bread sticks on it, so I made those once and am going to make them tonight.   I found some Progresso soups that are ZERO points!  They were all the way on the bottom shelf, of course.  I also got some bread that is only 1 pt for 2 slices.  For my snack at night I am having popcorn or a skinny cow.  I got some Kashi cereal bars, multi grain cheerios and Kirkland brand slim fast for options for breakfast.  Oh, I am actually buying skim milk instead of drinking Rebecca's whole. 

And I've been taking Rebecca for a walk in the stroller about every other day.  I feel like I have a lot more energy all around.  And I know it's TMI, but I feel like my IBS has gotten completely under control.  I was really sick the week before I decided to make an effort to start eating better.
