This week was hard. Last week, I lost a pound (yay!) but I was feeling pretty down because I watched the Biggest Loser and these people are dropping 4 month old babies in weight! Seriously. And I have to remind myself that all these folks are doing all day is working out, they have someone making their meals, and they deffinantly are not making yummy goodies to take to church on Wednesday nights for Bible Study. I mean, could you lose weight while you were scarfing down the extra Reece cups after you made the cookies in the corner?
Plus, I made a new recipe I found on Kraft Kitchens
It’s just hard to not eat the extra oreos that weren’t needed for this recipe. I was pretty good though. I only ate one and I didn’t eat ANY of these at church on Wednesday night. It was just too late for me to eat those goodies. I told myself I would have a bite of whatever was left the next day. However… my group is full of piggies (I kid, I kid) and they ate it all! I was left one lonely oreo that I devoured the next day after lunch. Ho hum. I will never lose weight with Oreos in the house. Never never.

My water intake has still been going strong. I did have a Dr. Pepper at my mom’s house yesterday. I seriously cannot help it. I see one and it’s all cold and calling my name. There has to be a Dr.Pepper Anonymous I can join, right?

So, all in all, the past TWO weeks, I’ve lost a measly one pound. Just one pound. At this rate I’ll be thirty by the time I get down to where I’d like to be. The only thing that makes me lose weight is morning sickness… but that only lasts for a few months and then I get all baby chubbed out again. Maybe I should… I don’t know… try working out? *gasp*

See how everyone else is doing here at Bye Bye Fat Mom.

Ps- Here are some of my new tricks I have for myself. I’m trying to order water when we go to out to eat. So, every time that I do, I’m putting a dollar in my “skinny-jar” (that sounds lovely, right?). I’m saving us two dollars by not getting a soda, so I’m getting half and the other stays in our checking account. Pretty fair, huh? So, say we eat out once a week (this includes fast food), that’s 4 bucks a month. PLUS a dollar for every pound I lose. If I lose 50 pounds, that’s $50.00 + $1.00 for every week that it takes (let’s say it take 25 weeks) 50+25=$75. That’s a pair of really cute shoes, or a cute outfit. PLUS the $1,000 my husband doesn’t know that I’m going to spend on a new skinny wardrobe. So yeah, $1,075.00 for not being a heifer?  Yes, please.
