South Beach buddy

My MIL has decided to join me on South Beach. She started yesterday! I will share information with her and we can lose weight together.

Rusty and I went to dinner last night at Chili's. I decided on the Steak and Mushroom Fajita's without the tortilla's and sour cream. It was pretty yummy! I would have liked more veggies than just the onions and peppers. There was the mushroom, but it was a pretty small amount. It was tasty though. They marinate it in a cilantro, lime sauce. YUM!!! I am pretty proud of myself for not ordering the Triple Dipper appetizer. I love the chicken crispers and the southwest egg rolls.

Mary- I forgot to tell you for my sweet treat in the evening I have a No Sugar added fudge bar mixed with a spoon of natural peanut butter. So yummy! Try it if you need a sweet.

Good Luck this week!!!

Discouraged

Well I am on day 9 of my diet and have only lost 4.6 lbs. I have not cheated. I have been SO good. I really am an impatient person and really wanted to lose those 10 lbs. that the South Beach Diet talks about. I know I am eating healthier, but .... I know the weight will come off. I am losing inches. I should have taken measurements, but didn't. My pants are not nearly as tight so that's a good thing, unless you ask Rusty. My dear hubby likes me chubby!!! LOL I have been exercising 5 days a week, both on my elliptical and videos. Denise Austin really irritates me!!! She has a good workout though. So I will keep on going knowing the weight has to eventually come off. If anyone has any good veggie recipes bring them on.

Ethan's new diabolo

Ethan got his diabolo today. He hasn't mastered catching it on the string yet.

Skiing







Rusty and the boys went skiing, actually snowboarding today. They usually do a yearly trip. Rusty took some pics on his camera and sent them to me. They are the clearest pic, but you get the general idea. Hope they are having fun.

Happy Birthday Mom


Happy Birthday Mommy!!!!

Wendy- You are my inspiration

After reading your blog I got motivated to clean the boy's rooms. I have discovered that Ethan hardly has any clothes that fit. I just bought him clothes a bit ago and bought him more last Wednesday and he still only has a few things. He is growing SO fast. Tucker on the other hand has enough clothes for 3 kids. He gets the hand me downs. He hates that so I buy him some clothes too. I then come home and look in his closet and say "what was I thinking." Ethan is already wearing clothes that Ethan just outgrew. He is going to be really tall if he keeps growing at the rate he has been. So Wendy the boy's thank you for having to clean today. LOL
