At my age, imagine anxiously awaiting a doctor's appointment!

How silly is that? It's not like I'm going to be rewarded for getting straight A's on a report card, and I certainly don't need affirmation or validation from my doctor. I KNOW what I've accomplished, and that definitely should suffice.

Yet here I am AGAIN reviewing my numbers from my latest blood test and looking at my new BMI and counting the days until Monday's appointment.

I suppose it's partially because I've already gloated to my hubby and I know he won't hesitate to remind me I've already told him THREE TIMES.

Okay. So countdown to Monday. I wonder if I'll get a pretty sticker for getting good grades... er... I mean, good results?

Can there be a calorie deficit from a fast food restaurant?

It must have been the good weather we've been having. But who could have predicted the line at Chipotle would be so long? It wrapped around the inside of the restaurant and out through the front door. Not only did I get extra "exercise" (yeah, right) standing the whole time, but by the time I brought my dinner home, I ran out of time to finish eating. (I have a 7:00 a.m. appointment for a fasting blood test tomorrow.)

Moral of the story: plan ahead!

Instead of not finishing my 315 calorie burrito bowl (with fajitas, barbacoa, salsa, cheese & lettuce), I could have stood outside of the Cheesecake Factory complete with a piece of cheesecake and NOT eaten that instead!

Oh, wait. On second thought, they may not have had a long line.

Just a journal entry for myself

On April 9, 2012, I made a commitment to make changes, and today marks five months. Although it sounds diametrically opposed to each other, it seems like just yesterday I started on this journey, yet it seems like I've been eating healthier forever.

39.4 pounds lost; 1.8 pounds per week over 22 weeks; BMI from 29.8 to 22.6.

Motivation from unexpected places.

-o- My fellow travelers aka buddies on FS
-o- Reading journals of successes and struggles
-o- Designer jeans from the '90s that easily button and zip
-o- My empty closet (now barely a week's change of clothes)
-o- Anticipation of daughter's reaction when she sees me
-o- Anticipation of doctor's next visit with diabetes under control

And best of all and priceless: trying on the dress for my daughter's wedding with nylons and shoes and my husband saying "You look beautiful"... for the FIRST time after decades of being married (sigh. man of few words).

May you all have an equally happy and wonderful weekend.
