Hello everyone,
I have been trying to get my weight to even out and it seems to be. I lost a lot when I was sick and then I gained some when I went down to Saint George on vacation. I have been fairly steady at 164 for about the last week. So I did feel like I made my June goal of losing five pounds. And I got a fancy hair cut when I was down with the girls. July slipped by me. I have tried to keep a journal and I am good at it for a week or two and then I stop. I don't know why writing down my food is so hard for me to keep up with. Anyway, my goal for August is to lose another five pounds. My reward is going to be buying me a new shirt.
Heather gave me a really great receipe for taco salad. If anyone wants it I would be happy to share. I have to say that having some time for myself this summer has been really good for me. I have been able to think more about my health and enjoy quiet time.
One thing that really seems to be helping me not be so hungry all the time is watching how much carbs and sugar that I eat. If I over eat carbs I crave more and I am hungry more often and need more. So I try to save most of my carbs for dinner when I will be going to bed soon and I don't have those late afternoon binges. Try it maybe it will help you to.
I had a wonderful time going to Saint George this summer and being with all of you there. My family is the best and all of you are very special. I love you all and hope things are going well for everyone.
