Milestones!

Well, I delightfully tell you that we've (the royal we?) completed 1/4 of the weight loss journey!!!
Finally hit 20 lbs! lordie, so basically... I'm right where I was around this time last year. Its kinda sad that I gained 20 lbs over the course of a year... with diets randomly thrown in there.

But in 3 lbs I hit what I call "the barrier" this is where I plateau. every. single. time. So please be with me during the next few weeks to see if I triumph over it or if it takes me down, and if it does please don't let me fall.

Oh so here's my funny story for the week. So yesterday was mother's day, right? My sister couldn't come but my brother in law, Stewart did, my Aunt came and my Gran came, along with my father, mother and I. All well and good I didn't really take Grans off-hand comment about how I shouldn't snack to much before dinner (crackers and cheese... yaaay) too seriously, but dessert came after dinner (duh?) and we had poppyseed roll and icecream, now seeing as it was a special day I used this weeks flex points (i kinda had to, as we ordered out from a restaurant) and so i took more than my usual 1/2 cup of ice-cream (it was probably no more than a 3/4 cup though) and two (small) pieces of roll and this, *this* is when gran pipes in and says "You're supposed to be reducing your intake. Your dress barely fit. You don't want to gain." She must have been referring to the dress I wore on easter which, notably was a little snug. But I, who is having bonding time with aunt-flow, was not having any of that. I politely said "You mean I don't look like I've lost almost 20 lbs?" I genuinely sounded concerned, but then I kind snarkily said, "I think I can indulge a little bit when I want to." My aunt backed me up, but nothing more was said, thankfully. haha. I should put on my dress, it's been almost 10 lbs since I wore it... haha!

Note: I do love my gran, but after all my dieting it irks me if someone tells me I'm eating too much. I *plan* my flex points days, the least people can do is let me enjoy it.

Until next time!

Total Loss: 20/80
