....This Just In....

Who has two thumbs and lost five pounds this week? THIS GIRL!

Shane and I have ROCKED IT. We've gotten 5 (or more!) servings of vegetables every day, we went to Jyze class all week and did the elliptical trainer on Tuesday and Thursday (even though I REALLY didn't want to on Thurs.... every step felt murderous!) PLUS we took the kids swimming on Saturday for Payton's birthday. I've got to say, I'm pretty impressed with us -- especially Shane. I didn't know for sure if he would stick with it or not, but he's hanging in there! He's probably just doing it because I need someone to suffer with, but whatever works I guess! I'm super relieved to have broken my horrible sugar and soda addiction. I still have those chew-your-arm-off cravings occasionally (mostly for chocolate, cake, crackers and waffles) but the feeling of a starving monster clawing at the walls of my stomach is gone. Huzzah!

C'mon, time to brag. I want to know how everybody did the first week! Success time? Recommit time? Anybody?
