Your food was devine, your water intake has been awesome (like one of your other readers, I tend to drink mine at room temp because it goes down faster for me), and you still allowed yourselves some treats as all part of your plan. Way to go!! <br /><br />For me, I've been pasta-free for almost 90 days and honest to goodness I don't miss it. I'm discovering some other trigger foods as well and am working on eliminating them as well. I've upped my exercise and just today I managed to do a 50 minute workout which burned 646 calories and I feel marvelous! I'm going to hurt like the dickens tomorrow, but right now I feel great. The battery is out of the scale and I'll be doing my weigh in come July (my birthday month) so here's hoping these active changes I'm making will finally show up on the scale. I even treated myself to darling pair of red and black plaid ballerina flats--they are SO cute! =o)dalbador1https://www.blogger.com/profile/09877799102438622117noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7381223979507114346.post-72981240895455629082013-04-28T17:28:11.682-04:002013-04-28T17:28:11.682-04:00Cherry juice lemonade!

What a great help that has been.<br />The one thing I didn't count on this last week was the cake my kids had delivered for my birthday. So far I've only had one thin slice. Then there is today..............<br />I am sure there was at least 5000 calories in that one thin slice.Dianehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18418025316142062646noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7381223979507114346.post-87924975544884730042013-04-27T21:46:17.776-04:002013-04-27T21:46:17.776-04:00You are amazing!

It...Sounds like April was a very successful month. It is too bad that you have to do all of the cooking to make it work though. Your vacation will be a well deserved break and you guys will come back refreshed and even readier to work. Have a great weekend and enjoy your meal with a friend.<br /><br />Not a lot planned here, I have "homework" to do and there are a lot of odd jobs my Mr. has to do around the house today that will take most of the day and then he works tomorrow. Hubby and I will take turns today keeping the little guy occupied so the other can get our work done. It will feel good to have the "stuff" done, but it will be less than exciting. Unless the plumbing repair goes badly - then it will be very exciting just not the good kind.another layerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15756727485274694135noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7381223979507114346.post-61025744626896062642013-04-27T09:18:36.860-04:002013-04-27T09:18:36.860-04:00That is incredible!

It's paying off so far. I was stuck for a few weeks, but the scale has moved down two pounds in the past few days.<br /><br />I read that potassium helps your body process fluids and move the fluid in/out of cells, so I've been taking potassium supplements (in the vitamin aisle). They weren't kidding. It's like I've been taking water pills or something.Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14704469867788218608noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7381223979507114346.post-45987592304929547592013-04-27T09:10:14.028-04:002013-04-27T09:10:14.028-04:00No doubt this is what is going to work for us. So ...No doubt this is what is going to work for us. So glad we finally have some hope for a solution to get us out of this nearly 2 year rut! It is of course a double edged sword since you have to do even more cooking but just as you demonstrated with your pics, we most certainly did NOT suffer. It was all so good and I did not feel deprived (except for that day we had the cookies). Congrats to us! Woo hoo!The Mr.https://www.blogger.com/profile/04233628447251244134noreply@blogger.com
