Down 43 lbs :-)

Good morning!

Well, I am down another 1.8 lbs this week, for a total of 43 lbs! I don't know if I deserved to lose though, to be honest! I mean, I had a fantastic week full of workouts and healthy food, but I did drink a fair amount on Saturday and then yesterday was a bit of an off day. But I'll take the weightloss and continue working hard!

Friday after work I met up with Brian and Greg and we headed to the Boston Pizza in Kanata for dinner. I tried the "delicious alternative" spicy chicken & garlic pizza (650 calories for the entire individual pizza!) It was fantastic! We then went to Scotiabank Place and saw Billy Talent in concert, with Cancer Bats, Against Me and Alexisonfire all opening for them. The concert was really fun and I had a blast! I got home around 11:45pm and was asleep by 12:30am.

Saturday Brian and I had a lazy day.... slept in..... watched the movies Tommy Boy and Step Brothers. We also did the Jillian Michaels 30 Day Shred workout dvd. I wanted to get an intense workout in before drinking at night. My birthday party was that evening and it was awesome! Val did an Easter Egg hunt for us and the hiding places were really creative (some eggs were hidden in blown up balloons!) I stayed out til about 3:30am and was in bed by around 4am.

Sunday I got up around 9am and spent the day in kind of a daze.... when you go to bed so late, the following day always feel like a write-off.... We watched some tv, went to Danielle's around 2pm to help clean (though she'd already done most of it), brought the empties back to the beer store.....then Brian had to go into work for a meeting so I went home, got myself something to eat (it was now 3:30pm and I hadn't eaten yet!) and just napped on and off on the couch. Brian came back over around 8pm and we watched some episodes of Friends....

  2. Denise! Of course you deserve to lose weight. Life isn't always about restricting yourself, you know that, and you have been really good about eating healthy and keeping up an active lifestyle. This just shows that what you are doing overall is working and it allows you to have a life as well as lose weight. It is possible to do both at once! Congrats!
