Weekends are the hardest...

Well, I made it through another weekend. I find them particularly challenging for a couple of reasons..1. In the past our weekends seem to revolve around food. If we go to the zoo, park, lake etc..we'll take a picnic basket of really yummy food, or we'll stop in at the bakery for lunch. If we're in town shopping, we'll stop in at the food court or cafe, if we're busy in the garden or redecorating (which is taking up most of our life at the moment), we'll end up getting take aways for dinner. 2. Trevor often works over the weekend and I find myself bored, with leads to boredom-eating....anyway, the weekend's over and I did well. I didn't manage to get on the treadmill, but food wise, I did ok. Watching the family eat Red Rooster on Saturday night almost killed me though, but I guess as the saying goes...that which doesn't kill you, only makes you stronger..lol. Lots of people commenting on the weight loss now, which is good...but it's certainly made me realise just how big I was...I mean it's taken for me to lose a LOT of weight, for people to really start noticing. I didn't get a chance to weigh myself yesterday either, but I'll get some scales this week...I think regular weigh-ins help. As soon as I find my USB cable, I'll upload some 'before' and 'now' pics as well:) Oh..and thanks to Liz (who's blog I'm following) I now have orange legs:/ So much for "gradually builds a light tan", as it said on the bottle...I now have orange knees, hands and white feet...why the heck didn't I think to put the tanning lotion on my feet??!! LOL
