I am not exactly sure how I didn’t blog this week because it seemed to be 23 days long. I started the week going with the junior retreat with my high school. I went as a chaperone. It was nice relaxing time but it was kinda boring and I always miss my boys when I am away from them.
Meanwhile, Henry didn’t fully gain his appetite back and feel 100% until about Tuesday. And now he is eating us out of house and home. He asks for pizza and chips non stop. The absence of milk has really created a void in his calories that he is filling with food. Yesterday he ate an entire container of strawberries at my mom’s. And for dinner he has grapes, cheese, pierogi’s and then a piece of pizza and some chips!!! I need to get this boy to start eating meat to satiate himself better.
Anyway, I went back to myfitnesspal. I am more comfortable with it than WW and it’s something I can see doing long term. When I got on the scale Wednesday after eating junk food at the retreat and a Fat Tuesday feast, I saw a number I hadn’t seen in quite a while. I got really scared. Luckily I dropped 4 of those lbs in two days of eating right and chugging water. I have a specific weight I want to be by the time Spring Break gets here and we take our trip to Texas. So, I am trying to stay focused. I’m going to see if mini goals work for me. I haven’t tried that before.
Today I am going to two classes at the gym then to the grocery store. And then I just plan on chilling out, playing with Henry, and straightening up.
My boy is growing up so fast:
I hope you all have a great weekend.
