Hey you're doing good hun! Keep it up! You're staying right where you want with your cals.... Wish I could have tried you dish! Congrats on the new addition to the Fam !
 
Thank you girly! It's funny too because it seemed like every function (baby and bridal showers) I went to, they always had these cheesy hashbrowns. So I kept asking my mom to get the recipe and make them (since I lived at home). She always forgot, so when I moved out I just found the recipe myself online and tried them. YUMMM I made them just by the recipe and left out the onions (ICK!). Next time I'll use less sour cream and more cheese. (Note to self hehe)

Thanks for the support. :) It's funny. My calorie goal is 1500. LOL Yet I find myself staying around the 1200 mark. I think my spirits are up with the 1500 goal because I don't get down on myself when I eat that much...and I feel even better when I stay at 1200!

Anyway thanks again and you're doing good yourself! :)
 
Congratulations on being an aunt! That's wonderful! And hooray on the cheesy potatoes! I'll have to try to make something like that sometime.

It was a strange day for food. I didn't eat a lot, but I ate bad foods. I didn't have time for too much really. Today we went to the little carnival down town. I went tanning. I cleaned my car out. (Dusting, vaccuuming, and all...which took like 2 hours!!!) :eek: Anywho! Atleast I stayed under my calories. Such a strange day. I enjoyed it for the most part though.

I have to run now! My nephew is staying the night tonight and he's tired so we're going to bed! :) He's such a cutie! :p Goodnight to all and hope everyone is enjoying their weekend ;)

Weigh-in

This morning was weigh in day!

I hop on the scale...*drum roll*...180.0 lbs

YESSSS YES YES YES! LOL! I'm sooo excited

I'm down 24 pounds total! One more pound and I'm halfway to my weight loss goal. I'm so proud of myself! I really just can't believe I'm doing it!

Oh and yesterday I got like the best compliment. I was out at the ball field, waiting for my game to start and this girl that I played with before came walking up. She had gotten a haircut so I wasn't quite sure if it was her or not (Until she got closer). So I waved hi to her and she waved back and ended up coming over and we talked for a while. I said, "I wasn't sure if it was you at first because your hair was so different. By the way, I really like your hair." So then she says, "Thanks...I couldn't tell if it was you either, that's why I didn't wave right away or anything. I thought, that girl looks familiar. But you have highlights and look like you've lost a lot of weight so I wasn't sure until you waved."

It was sooo great to hear that. Nothing better than hearing from someone out of the blue that you look good. It's especially nice because she's the type of person that wouldn't just say something to be nice. Wow it's unbelieveable how great it made me feel.

Thanks girls! I needed that so badly! For whatever reason, today just felt like a down in the dumps day. I'm starting to feel a bit better though. Of course my monthly friend plays a small roll in that but for the most part I just felt down. Anywho! Thanks again girls, you're the best!
 
hey girl how'd the rest of your day go?? Keep your chin up your doing GREAT! Remember, 179 is right around the corner!
 
Hey! Well..I went by Scott & Michelle's to see their house (they just painted it). I jumped on the trampoline with Julie. Then I went to my mom and dad's for dinner. We went to my old elementary school, where my nieces had a little improv play type thing. Food wise...it sucked. Well, I ate steak and potatoes for dinner...that wasn't bad. After the play I split a hot fudge cake with my mom and dad! :( OY! I'm just glad that day as a whole is over!
