Week in review - illness and blown tire :P

An eventful week (unfortunately) - I got a 24 hour stomach bug - still had to work which didn't make it any easier. D had to bring me meds to get me through the day and the night. Then, yesterday, one of the back tires blew out. So - we have to get new ones. I was really hoping we could get through April before replacing them - they need to be done, but we just didn't have the money to do it. So, it puts more pressure on D to get more jobs in to help with the wedding expenses. Ugh.

On the flip side. Weight loss is going better. Overall, I've lost 4 inches this week :) My waist is down - which is probably the most significant change. I'm done 6.4 pounds total so far - which is really good. I'm 4.2 pounds away from the first goal - which is 10.6 pounds - the 0.6 is so I can be on even numbers for weight loss from now on. That was in about 10 days - so hoping I can continue to lose that much every ten days :)
D is also losing - about 8 pounds for him and 2 inches overall. He gained some inches in his legs, but okay with that since we've been walking.

Weird though - today is cheat day - and we usually have a plan of what we want to eat and what we're going to make for meals - we have NO clue this week :P Nothing really sounds good. The only thing we figured out was breakfast - but we had everything here already so it was easy (french toast). Lunch and dinner - we still have no clue. The weird thing is neither of us is really craving anything in particular - so I'm guessing it's a good sign that we are getting used to the eating plan and don't want the "bad" foods anymore :)
