My little Bit of Honey

So this past weekend I attended my husband's work holiday party, it's always at a beautiful place and everyone gets very dressed up. I did my first Rent The Runway and was to be honest a bit nervous. The dress I was wearing was..not my usual type of dress. I am mostly a LBD type of girl, so a dress with gold sparkles all over it is a bit intimidating to me. Well, the dress was a hit. I felt great and confident in it, better than I think I have ever felt in something (other than my wedding dress). The party this year was almost a year exactly to the one last year so I was able to do a pretty good comparison and it just reminds me that I've come so very far. I lost another .6 pounds (or something like that) which brought me down to the "other side" of the 160s, which is a good feeling! I haven't been here for a long time! Cutting gluten down has been hard but after eating a lot over the weekend (holiday parties/birthday parties can do that to you!) I can feel

Today was my official weigh in day, I had weighed myself on Friday but wanted to wait till it was "official" to actually log it. So this morning I weighed myself and I've lost 2.8lbs since last week around this time. This is great progress! I mean, I had visions last night of being at least another pound lower and this morning started giving myself a hard time (why did I have that cupcake and glass of wine last night?) but, then I realized that this is not a sprint, it's a marathon. I know that these results will not be typical every week and some weeks I'll lose this much and some weeks not as much, so I just have to give myself a break. I did GREAT this weekend, I kept reminding myself "I have weigh in Monday" and that kept me away from the treats and the binges that I normally will do on weekends. If I didn't have a treat every now and then.. I'd go crazy. It's now been two weeks since I decided to cut the gluten down from my diet, it

Thank you Sweet Jesus it is Friday! For some reason this has felt like the longest week, even though I had Tuesday off. Anywho, I haven't been posting many updates lately, mainly because there really hasn't been much to update on, I've been slacking big time and trying not to show it. :) This week I made a change though and put myself back into gear. I've tracked my food each and every day on myfitnesspal and have been sticking to my "no gluten during the day" rule and I've been taking my vitamins every day. I've also been using a different mindset of logging my food, when I go to eat something I ask myself "would I want to log this onto my food diary?" if the answer is no, I usually will put it back. I haven't had many cravings and I think the reason being is that I've been satisfying my cheese and chocolate cravings (my usual two downfalls) with having a piece of cheese a day and sticking to Lunabars as well as Kind bars. I've
