I survived!

We had 2 birthday parties this week. One was a huge bash Saturday night for my MIL. The other was for our neice's 6th birthday. I ate way too much, had a few drinks and still lost weight.
Down another 1.4 lbs. I am so close, but 1 lb and 9 days away from my goal. I was hoping to lose 2.4 lbs this week (however unrealistic that is). So.... one more week to hit my goal!

I LOST 1.6 lbs!

I had to make sure everyone read that! If you thought I was joking, my WI last week was 169 and this week I am sitting at 167.4. :o) I couldn't be happier! Yesterday I hosted a Tastefully Simple party with my wonderful consultant Kristin. I ate way too much yummy, yummy food! I took most of the leftover dips to my MIL's for a family GTG. So, sitting out most of the day I did not attempt to save those. I didn't take over the leftover keylime cheeseball though. Oh and I ate all the warm dip myself at the party. I was shocked that despite the beer bread, the dips, the chips I didn't retain a ton of water weight. I also ate a hamburger and a cupcake at MIL's (after having a plate of only fruit & veggies though!).
SO, I have 2.4 lbs to make my goal. We have a big weekend with 2 b-day parties.... so wish me luck!

Monday Weigh-In

I lost weight! I am an appropriate weight for my height! I am down 2.2 lbs from last week (which if you remember was a 0.8 lb gain). So really, I am down 1.4 lbs. :o)
Please ignore my preliminary number I posted earlier... my official weigh-in is 169. I am still happy about this number.
