  • chili success - and inches

    The chili was a hit. Those gals will eat anything

    yesterday I was so nervous and so busy that I did not eat all day. I was starving when supper rolled around. Not good, I know.. and I'm working on that. These past 2 days have been horrible with not eating enough. No wonder I'm wobbling on those 2 pounds up and down. My poor body!

    Anyway, everyone loved it. I had chili, cheese, sour cream and green onions. I had coffee and visited when we stopped for dessert - it was a yellow sheet cake with chocolate icing. It was easy to pass up. I know in the long run it's just not worth it. Seems everyone in our group is following some sort of plan - WW, low fat, low cal, exercising and me on Atkins. Everyone drank the diet root beer or water LOL

    I was really bummed when I got on the scale this morning and saw I'm 1 pound from having lost 20 total pounds. So I ripped out that tape measure and sure enough.. inches have disappeared. Funny thing, I dated the last measure date and it was TWO DAYS AGO! I was floored. So the scale should be moving soon. And if not, I know the inches are! It's amazing how it just comes off like that. I'm talking 3/4 inch in two days time. wow!

    Rachel, that's fantastic! I've noticed that whenever I take a low-carb dish to a party, my dish is always the first one GONE! Yet those same people who are gobbling down the low carb food and raving about how good it is are the ones saying "Oh, I could never do that diet". Yeah, it's such a hardship, I know. Ha!

    Congrats on the inches! That's so awesome. I'd rather have inches gone than pounds any day. Keep going, you can do it!
