Hi everyone! How did you do last week?
Halloween will be here in less than a week - ACK! Anyone dip into their candy stash yet?

Re: HLG
I managed to lost 2.4 lbs last week! Guess the constant pounding in my head all week from my sinus troubles took my mind off of wanting to eat. Ran 2 days, but for some reason my asthma has been acting up as I go, so I am getting tired a lot more quickly than before. I'm going to keep playing with my medicine, and if nothing works, I'll probably head to the doctor to see if she has anything else for me to try.
I made a point to have the candy in a spot where I'm not tempted to go to them. Plus, I got DH and DS's favorite - M&M's - so they are welcome to the leftovers once the trick or treaters are gone.
I'm SO ready. After a week of stuffing myself at Disney my grand total of weight gain is about 14lbs since the beginning of August when I "fell off the wagon". I'm only 5 '3" so that's a ton of weight and I gotta put my foot down. 4 1/2 mths until we go to Mexico and I'm not living in some giant cover up. I stocked up on healthy groceries this week and I'm ready 2 go!
For Halloween I bought blow pops for the trick or treaters- a candy I'm not really in to and can offer to J as a reward.
I have been emotionally eating so I haven't lost anything. I have barely cooked for DH and I in a week. So I hope to clean out our fridge and get some fresh groceries instead of picking at whatever I can find.
Blow pops are a good idea...esp since I just had a little chocolate with my morning coffee - ugh!
I am up a couple of pounds and feeling defeated. My sister had a baby 1 month ago and after 2 weeks, she only had 4 pounds left to lose to be at pre-baby weight. Ugh. Good for her, but wow. I am 9ish pounds from my goal which was also pre-Owen weight.
Blow Pops are a great idea for Halloween! I am such a chocolate lover. We don't get many trick-or-treaters, but I always have candy in case.
So I tried to work out today. Got up at 6 and both of my kids were up. Owen usually gets up at 7 and Mia closer to 8. Then during Mia's nap I tried to work out and the washing machine broke and flooded the basement. It wasn't meant to be.
That did not sound like a good day. I hope things go a little better today. Don't get down about the pounds. You are so close! You'll find your way out. Hang in there.
