Short and Sweet.....

I know that it has been several weeks since I posted anything. I was sick for two weeks and then my toddler caught my cold, double ear infection, and one of those childhood viruses at the same time. So after a few doctor visits and some antibiotics we are both feeling better.

I wasn't able to really work out during all of this. I was up most nights with my toddler and during the day I was exhausted. I did however stick to my diet and made sure to push the fluids. I thought for sure I would drop zero weight so I refrained from weighing myself until just this week. I dreaded stepping on the scale in fear of A) not losing anything or B) gaining weight. I was pleasantly surprised that I lost 6 lbs with little exercise. Then I got upset and thought if I would have worked out more then I could have lost more. But instead of getting into a bad head space I just relished the thought of dropping those 6 lbs. My surgeon said my weight loss would start to slow down and I would only lose 8 to 10 pounds a month. I can live with that!!

As a sleever it is so important to eat well, drink our 60oz of water, and to get our work out on. But sometimes life just happens and you get off schedule for a bit. Don't feel bad or disappointed in yourself just dust yourself off and get back on track!!
