New Goal

[TrudieC]

Today is my 47th birthday and I had started a goal back in May to lose 6 lbs. by today.  I didn't lose 6 but I did lose 3 and I am happy with that.  It is moving in the right direction.  Just put in a new goal and want to lose 6 by Sept. 15 to get me to 175 lbs.  I thank all my friends here for your motivation, support and humor to help me get on the track to a healthier life.  

I will not commit to being a good girl when I go out for dinenr with my husband tonight.  I am choosing to enjoy whatever I wish and will be back in good form tomorrow.  The food diary will be updated appropriately.

Well, good for you.  That is success - getting back on track instead of giving up!  No big deal, really.  IT WAS YOUR BIRTHDAY!!!  

The meal sounds WAY too good.  I would have done the same thing!  Oh, YUM!

It was very nice.  Wish I could learn to leave the bread basket alone though.  A variety of homemade breads and great olive oil with pesto for dipping is hard to resist.  Excellent dinner with ahi tuna and fried wonton appetizer and then a beautiful beef tenderloin steak.  Needless to say I blew my calories for the day but did get back on track yesterday.

OH!  I missed it!  I had to take two 14-year-olds to the mall....oy!

Happy Birthday to YOU!  I am happy for you.  Three pounds is GREAT.  I hope you enjoyed your dinner out - but not TOO much - LOL !

We're here to help you with the next 6.  YOU CAN DO IT !
