Catching Up

(by Kris)
I'm trying to play catch up with the blog to bring you all up to date. Long story short: Weight Watchers is going really well. I started out getting 36 points per day, but have lost enough weight (about 4 or 5 pounds) to need to recalculate my points allowance. I'm now allowed 35 points per day, and honestly, I'm struggling to be able to eat them all. Last night, I went to bed with 2 points left over, and tonight, I'm going to bed with 9 points left over!! This feeds my fear of losing my milk supply [for breastfeeding].

I am proud, however, of my commitment and determination to stay on track. Mom and I went to Hilton Head, South Carolina, over the weekend and we were so good! We brought groceries & ate most of our meals in the hotel. We only ate out twice, and one of those times, we only ate 1/2 of our meals.

Tonight, I did some stretches while watching "American Idol" and even pulled out the 'ole five pound weights. I sense my body yearning to feel better...I like that. :-)
