I did my yearly "weigh myself after Thanksgiving" expecting to get annoyed with myself once again. Not this year!
Over the past year, my lowest weight was 146. My sustainable weight where I felt the best was 155. This is where I've been for a while. On the day after Thanksgiving, I was at 162. Sure, it's not ideal. I had to force myself to look at the big picture. Last year, on the day after Thanksgiving, I was at a mind boggling 196. Even though I've put on a few pounds and went over my usual 155, I still weigh 34 pounds less than last Thanksgiving. And that's a win in my book!
I ovulated yesterday. Bring on the two week wait! This is the second month we've tried to get pregnant, and it's seriously made me realize how terrible I am at waiting for things. I am a "please me now, give me what I want" kind of person. When I want something, I get it. I am not one who enjoys waiting around for things. So what I'm trying to say is that this is kind of like human torture. I know there's really no reason to get all crazy about it, but it's just so darn exciting!
I've decided I'm going to start making fruit smoothies for breakfast and vegetable soup for my lunches. I have a butternut squash in the oven right now that smells delicious!
That's all for now. Fingers crossed that in 9-10ish months, Josh and I will have our own little bundle of joy! :)
