A little perspective...new and old.

OK, so I started Diet to Go in late January at a whopping 258 and change. Below are my first pictures of that glorious day.




















I hoped there would be relief from the way I was feeling and the way I looked. Fast forward a few months where I'd lost at least 20 pounds or so. I'm sure I used these same photos in a previous blog if I wanted to find out the exact number.




















Fast forward to today...a little over 8 months down the road. I'm 219 and down almost 40 pounds. I look and feel so much better and have somehow weathered the storm (so far) with all that has happened in my life these past few months without falling off the wagon. I look better, I feel better and I'm happier for it. Start your transformation today. If you've tried all the other diets and failed why not try DTG and succeed.

wow, what a month.

It's been a little over a month since we bought the new house and it wasn't until last weekend that we actually feel that we live there. It was only a week ago that the tilers finished and we were able to move furniture into the house. The tile and paint looks great but there is so much to do and so much travel involved I feel a bit overwhelmed by it all. Add to that; my mom went in the hospital again on Friday after slipping at home. She had an angiogram week before last and wasn't feeling well after being in the hospital a few days. I'm holding steady at 222 and that's still 38 pounds.

On a positive note, my food has arrived safe and sound since Diet to Go changed their packaging. The food is still awesome but I'm green beaned out. I love the proteins but and bored by the veggies sometimes. If they would send me the whole, half-chicken every night I would love it. As always, I have my favorites but it would behoove me to spend a bit more time on the phone or online tailoring the meal plan to my preference. I fully intend on sticking with the plan through the first of the year...I'm budgeted for it but with the holidays coming I may take a few weeks off. For the first time in my 46 years on the planet I plan on hosting Thanksgiving at my house. I hope it doesn't end up like Chevy Chases' Christmas Vacation but I'm really looking forward to it.
