My 4 week loss is -15.8 pounds. I am really happy with this. I didn't have such a great week.  I had good intentions and made things like this for dinner...

Salad with chicken breast, romaine, carrots, tomatoes, radishes, goat cheese, and cherry dressing.

I also made steel cut oats with craisens and walnuts for breakfast. (My favorite.)

But on Wednesday and Thursday I was full of anxiety and stress and all that ugliness. I ate junk.  And it made me feel wonderful during and horrible after. It even did this to my tongue.

Can you see how swollen that is?  There are imprints from my teeth.  Ick.

I am proud of myself because I did not wait for Monday to get back in the saddle. I jumped back on the wagon Friday morning. I did not let myself beat me up about my two bad days. They happened. They are over.

"Losers quit when they are tired...Winners quit when they have won."

There is no way I am giving up when I have come so far.  Hubs and I had another double date on Saturday.  Plans about which restaurant we were going to kept changing. (Which I hate because I plan eating out VERY carefully with a lot of online menu recon.)  We ended up at the worst place a fat girl on a diet can be....a buffet.  Cringe.

I rocked it.  I had this....

Crab legs (and really that whole plate gives you about 1/2 cup of meat)

and sushi (mmm....sushi). Pay no attention to that sesame roll and crab rangoon. I don't know how those got there :-)

I was shocked to see the picture of me and Hubs.  I think I look pretty good!! Here is a comparison of a photo of us from about a month ago and the photo from Saturday.

Is it all in my head?  Or can you see a change?

After playing games at our friends' house we decided we needed frozen yogurt.  Another self-serve place opened up and we had to try it.

You start here.

And grab a cup.

Choose your flavor(s)...

They give you combination ideas!
 
Unlike the first place we tried last week, this place did not list the portion size or calories. Just the weight watchers points (most were about 3 points each).

I got White Birthday Cake, Chocolate Dream, and Cookies n Cream.

Then you throw on your toppings from this section.

And this section.

I stuck with a lot of fruits and tried to keep it small. This is what it looked like.

And this is what it looked like 5 minutes later.



Hubs was more than happy with his choice :-)
 
We really had a good time! I feel so thin and happy lately (even though I know I'm still very very chubby).  But it feels good! I'm not complaining.  Once I lose 0.4 more pounds I will post an official Progress Photo.  Until then, here is a shot of me all dolled up (in one of those Pretty Dresses Hanging In My Closet).

Here's to a great week!!!
