weight loss update

So I didn't mention the weight loss thing this week, because as of my weigh-in on Monday, I had gained a pound. Kinda pisses me off, because I was pretty good all week. We had halloween and were able to pawn off extra candy on other people. I was doing great and ready to break through to 40 lbs lost. Then the Percival girls rolled into town. Our friends from LA came up, Christa and her two daughters, Kaitlyn and Kennedy. I love these people, but the brought with them some of their extra candy and then shoved pieces down my throat. Kaitlyn is 3, Kennedy is 1 1/2 and Christa is 8 months pregnant, but they flat out overpowered me and forced me to eat candy and ice cream, and take an extra helping or two of meatloaf. Okay, so maybe they didn't force me, but I certainly did all of that. So in light of that, a pound isn't too bad. I'm back on track though and weighed myself this morning (don't tell anyone, you're only supposed to weigh in once a week) and lost 2 pounds! So, unofficially, because Thursday is not my weigh-in day, I am at 39 pounds lost! I'm hoping 60 by Christmas, though that may be pushing it. Wish me luck, and of course this year, gift cards may be the best gift, cuz who knows what size I'll be wearing!
