Well, I couldn't wait.

You know how in my last post I said I wasn't going to weigh myself again until Halloween?  Like the END of next month?  Well, I lied.  I had a bad week of dieting, and unfortunate circumstances that made it nearly impossible to work out all week.  So I figured if I stepped on the scale I would see no weigh loss, and that would encourage me to work harder in the coming weeks.  I weighed 190!!!!!  That is like a 4-5lbs loss in 2.5 weeks or so!!!  Way better than I expected.  I am still smiling when I think of it.  Lol  I guess I should hit my goal of being in the 180's by Halloween!  I think I may have my goal be 184 by Halloween.  Let's see if I can do it!  If I keep at this pace, then it should be no problem.

In sadder news though, Nan passed away last night. She is my great-grandma, and she lived a long wonderful 95 years.  We all knew it was coming, but it doesn't make it any less sad.  For the past year and a half (since the weekend after N was born) she has been on hospice, being cared for mostly by Nanny.  Two and a half weeks ago she had another stroke, and has just gone downhill since then.  I am so glad that I was able to make it out to see her 2 weekends ago with Natalie.  I had a chance to say good-bye.  The funeral is this Tuesday, and we will all be going out of town for it.  I will miss you Nan.  Love you lots.
