Finally!

Good Morning!  My doctor’s scales finally registered a loss - 9 pounds in 3 1/2 weeks!  I was so excited that I almost pulled an Ashlee Simpson on SNL, but it would have made me cough and I can’t do that.  Was at the doctors because I have strep throat now!  I’m 35 years old and this is one first I could have gone to my grave never having experienced!  Anyway, I’m on rest and a lot of fluids for the next couple of days.

Good news is, according to a recent study, diet and exercise equal out when it comes to weight loss.  Since I really don’t feel like eating much, I’m still losing.  I am so annoyed that I haven’t been able to exercise because even though I’m losing pounds, I’m not losing inches quickly any more.  However, I have to look at the other side and realize that any amount helps at this point.  I admire those of you who can exercise through illness.  I just can’t on this one.

Now I need to go make sure my kids haven’t ransacked the kitchen, a favorite past time of theirs.

    I hate strep throat. Of course, I don’t really know anyone that likes it. Lol!  I just got it for the first time about 2 years ago.  It is horrible!  I hope you feel better soon.
