A little bit lighter!!!

I have been doing low carb dieting for the past 2 months and today when I weighed this morning I have lost 15 lbs. WOO HOO!!! Now I have to start excercising, yuck! Of course I after a week-end of moving heavy furniture was a form of excercising as I was so sore afterwards. I am determined to have 50 lbs off of me by next spring. I have been doing great and have made it through alot of tempting times. Yesterday at work we had a meeting during lunch. They brought in alot of Papa John's pizzas that smelled heavenly. But I didn't eat one single piece. Now I just have to make it through Thanksgiving and Christmas. Thanksgiving will be easy except for not being able to eat dressing, but can eat alot of Turkey. Maybe sneak a couple bites of dressing. Christmas will be a little tougher what with all the candies and goodies that are sure to be around, but I have determination and will power. Just had to post my first bench mark. Hope all is well with my wonderful blogger buds!!!

Yay!! Three cheers and all that sort of thing! Congrats on the weight loss. I know how difficult it is to include exercise every day because I fight myself all the time about that one!

I'm sure you'll reach your goal. Love the photos you used.

Good for you Beth. I know you will do it. I recognize a woman of Willpower when I meet one. Doing it during the holidays is a great time to do it to because if you weren't doing it you'd just pack on a few more subtle sneeky lbs. I think the obsession with food around the holiday is oh so hard on us women. But you will do it. Do I sound like a cheerleader? LOL
