Day Twenty-Two - Weigh in #3 - Chex Mix, Gummy Worms, and Sunflower Seeds

So here I sit at 1:30 in the morning writing a blog post that I wanted submitted before midnight (so please excuse the poor grammar and spelling).  I don't like writing this late at night, but this could not have been avoided.  From 2:30 yesterday afternoon, until about forty-five minutes ago I have been driving, and driving, and driving.  We turned a seven and a half hour trip into a solid ten plus hours.  Now, there does need to be a disclaimer that each stop we took needed at least an extra half hour for B to feed.  Let me be honest, I do miss the days of just Bekah and I driving from state to state and making record time, but I will take extended time drives and having these two blessings any day.

Now let's get to the part all of you are wanting to know.  Did I lose any more weight this week?  Remember I've been sick, so I knew I probably would be losing a little more than a normal week.  Still, I will admit that I was very pleased with what I saw.  I am down another 7.8 lbs.  That puts me at a grand total loss of 22.8 lbs.  Now today's weigh in has another reason to celebrate.  I have officially hit my first weight-loss goal.  I am now under 350 lbs., weighing in at 343.4.  Now I am not to my next goal of 325 lbs.  I love having these goals.  They allow me to celebrate the wins, but keep me grounded for the next goal.  So, while I am celebrating my win on the scale today, I know that it is only a taste of the celebrating I'll do when I have hit that final goal, and have lost my butter half.

So today's eating was all out, had very little nutritional value, and even included Chex Mix, Gummy Worms, and Sunflower Seeds.  I know I stayed close to my caloric intake, but I usually have some fruit or veggies mixed in.  It is hard to eat right when traveling.  Especially if you are tired like I was tonight.  So here is to doing my best this weekend to make good choices.
*Oh, and if you haven't already tried Chick-fil-A's Egg White Grill, go pick it up in the morning (unless you are reading this on Saturday, because the next morning would be Sunday and we all know what that means).
**This recommendation is coming from a die hard spicy chicken biscuit fan who was very upset when they traded it for the new sandwich.
