Week 7 & 8 - Mom

Weight lost past two weeks: 4.2 lbs.
Total weight lost: 20 lbs. !!!

What worked for me:

I was afraid that being on vacation would hinder my weight loss. I guess playing mom to Vanessa and Nicole helped keep me active. No wonder Lisa is so skinny! It also helped that we walked a ton in Santa Fe. I was able to stay pretty much on track in Provo. I was also able to make mostly good choices in Santa Fe.

Temptations:

Del Taco is always a favorite of mine, but I only went there once in Provo. There was a really good Ice Cream/Bakery in Santa Fe that we went to a couple of times, but I only ate one scoop of ice cream each time, and stayed away from the pastries. The breakfast at our hotel had a wonderful spread each morning. Lots of good pastries, fruit, yogurt, cereal, toast, frittatas and other things. I ate fruit, yogurt and toast every morning, and had just a bite of Dad's other yummy things!

Goals for next week:

I want Dad to move my treadmill into Mark's bedroom, and get a small TV so I can keep up my walking. It seemed to really help, so I want to keep up the momentum!
I have found some interesting recipes that I will be trying and let you know how they are.

Hope everyone has a good week!
