Dieting Update

So much for keeping up with this!  Guess you didn't expect anything less.  Life is busy with 3 kiddos to watch, plus a house to clean and cooking diet food for breakfast, lunch, and dinner every day!  The bad news is, as you can tell, I haven't blogged about how things are going and some of the delicious recipes we've discovered.  The good news is, we've stuck with our diets and are making tremendous progress!  :D  So, without further adeau...
*****drumroll please*****
I am down 14.6 lbs in (almost) 6 weeks, and
Michael is down 15.8 lbs!
Yyyyyyyaaaaayyyyyyy!!!!!!!!  :D  I'm so proud of us for sticking with this and making big strides towards our weight goals!  We are very encouraged as we keep seeing the pounds melting away on the scale.  I've noticed qualitative differences in my body since I started this diet with Michael.  And today, for the first time in years, I was able to fit into the dress that I wore when Michael and I left our reception and headed off to our honeymoon!  :)  We both still have a long ways to go.  I think Michael would like to lose 19-24 more pounds.  As for me, I'd like to lose another 24-29 pounds.  It won't be any easy task, but at 6 weeks in, we have good habits in place, and we're eager to stick with our diet and goals for the sake of our continued progress.  When we've finished all the recipes (we skipped some due to church dinners, lunches out, leftovers, and holidays) I'll get lists posted here with the links to our favorites.  :)  Have a great Thursday!
