It's Blue Monday today at Smiling Sally's! When you're finished reading my good news, head over there for more blue-themed posts!
Two Blue Mondays ago, I challenged myself to get back into a skirt that I love but haven't been able to wear. I told you all that I'd update today...and yes, I did it! You can read the original post here.
In all, I've lost 8 pounds since that post! You'll be asking how I did it. Well, I did it the best way possible. I ate about 70% fresh fruits and vegetables each day and drank lots of water. The other 30% of my diet was made up of whole grain pancakes and sugar free syrup for some breakfasts and grilled chicken to go with some dinners. Yes, I snacked now and then and yes, there were a couple mornings when I had gained. However, it all evened out in the end and I'm feeling pretty great about that!
Here's the picture I promised. My husband took this this morning before we left for church.
Happy Blue Monday, everyone!

You're gorgeous!

Hello Sarah, well I am jealous and I am proud of you. I for one know how hard it is to lose weight and then...keep it off. You look very pretty in your blue skirt and your beautiful long hair. Your hubby must be very proud of you too.
ReplyDeleteI will visit your giveaway next. It sounds very exciting.
Hugs, Jeanne
You have it made with your determination. Stick with it as you have come too far to stop now. You will feel better too.
