Exciting New Things!

So yesterday as I finished typing my first blog post I get a phone call from my husband saying that he has decided that he wants to lose a few pounds and do a better job of supporting my weight loss efforts! What?! He says he wants to go to the gym with me! So after work I went home and got the kids and Ryan and we headed to the gym. I did Zumba for an hour and Ryan went in the workout room to hit the cycle, the weight machine and treadmill! The kids went in the child are area and had some fun. So today was administrative professionals day. I did not have a lunch date but that was totally fine with me because I am avoiding going out to eat right now. I ate my slim down chili and a salad. I also had some fruit. I went to event sponsored by a Dow group, WIN, but passed on the Blue Bell Ice Cream Sundaes. It was good to see my fellow admins and do some networking. I was proud and sad at the same time because Blue Bell is my favorite ice cream! I got some beautiful flowers from my bosses and a jar of chocolates from Switzerland from a coworker. After work I stopped at the mall to pick up some clothes for the kiddos, new pillows and a gift for Madi's birthday party this weekend. I got a little walking in a the mall and some good deals too. I came home to put everything away and did a little laundry and dishes while Ryan mowed the lawn. Ate a Lean Cuisine Asian Pot Stickers for dinner and a cinnamon raisin snackwells cereal bar. This morning I weighed in at 188!!!!!! It felt good to finally break under 190. One more work day this week and the hard work begins Friday. Got a busy day off planned then another Ultimate body wrap at 5pm then Nosh has a Tbsll game at 6pm. Saturday will be a killer as it is my boss' going away party and we are serving BBQ which I can't eat, and drinks all around. I will be strong and eat some chicken and drink water, going to try and hit Zumba in Saturday morning in case I cave for a jello shot or two. I feel good and the results, though small are rewarding and has me wanting more. 6 weeks to go before Gulf Shores!
