So, I took a couple weeks off. The first was so I could do the post for my mom. Then last week was because there was nothing to report.
Well, what can I say. I have been sick with sinus infections and then when I was finally feeling good enough to start exercising there was a mishap at a church activity and four chairs landed on my bad foot.
So, here is the update. I lost 7 lbs when I had the sinus infections. I have gained 4 back now that I have an appetite again. But, I am celebrating little achievements. I am proud of yesterday. We went to the dentist and they offer fresh cookies. I took one for each of the girls and I passed. Then we were running errands out by Krispy Kreme, I chose not to go for donuts even if the girls are on vacation. Yesterday it was so cold we wanted hot chocolate. I told myself that I could wait a little and see if I really wanted it. I was able to realize I would rather pass on the calories then have the hot chocolate.
Last night on Biggest Loser (Yes, I love that show) past winner Alli told a contestant to live in your success of today, and choose today to rededicate yourself to achieving your goal. I am going to follow that advice, EXCEPT for the yummy apples at Rocky Mt Chocolate Factory that I am going to have at the coast.

Boy, you're strong. Way to take charge.
Karen you are doing awesome!!!! I can't wait until you are ready to run with me. It's my new favorite thing!
cookies a the dentist? I don't get it. Don't you usually have to like wait for a while after your appt. before eating? and doesn't cookie sugar cause cavities?
Do you like this part of the dentist? Maybe I'll mention a new business strategy to my dad.
have a great time at the coast. I hope your stair incident isn't going to ruin your spring break fun.
I think you're doing great!
Enjoy those delicious apples--I've tried many varieties and I think the Snickers and Apple Pie ones are the best! What's your favorite?
Losing weight is all about the baby steps -- and you're taking them! Passing on the cookies and the donuts is a proof that you've got tremendous self control.
