It's been awhile since I posted in my journal. Alot has been happening here. I've lost track of my days since my new grandson was born. Just got back from helping out the new parents. Man, I was a cleaning fool yesterday. Their house is spit shined! I can't believe how much energy I had and more than once realized that I couldn't have done this for them a year ago. When I left their house, it was clean, every stitch of laundry was done, the fridge was full of good stuff to eat.
I haven't weighed myself in days because I was there and they don't have a scale, but I've remained compliant (I know, I know, I need to start transition....soon), so I know I'm on track.
My husband decided to try Nurtisystem for men......well, he lasted 2 days. Couldn't stand the food and was beside himself with hunger......sooooooo we have $300 worth of stuff to use up. I'm looking at labels to see if there's anything I can include in my maintenance plan. Looks like I'll be able to have the entrees and some of the snacks. I'll need to be careful, though, because many of the foods are pretty high in carbs. They have a soy crisp that is almost exactly the same nutritional value as the MF crisps. It won't all go to waste anyway. It's funny......I had a pretty good feeling that this would happen, but he had to try it himself to find out. He really doesn't have that much weight to lose, so his motivation isn't very strong. I told him that I had a much easier time because of the desparation factor.....I really believe it's true.
He says he's gonna call Dan Marino and ask him how many millions Nutrisystem paid him to lie on TV, lol.
