Day 15 (24DC 13) Weigh in and Picture Day

I hit the gym for an early morning workout first thing this morning. I figure the Easter cheat day won't feel so bad if I workout twice today. I got in 60 minutes, and 4.33 miles on the elliptical. I got in 20 minutes, and a little over a mile on the incline treadmill.

I'm using my MNS MAX 3 as directed.

I'm having half a roast beef sandwich for breakfast. It's just roast on a piece of whole wheat bread, with no sauce or veggies. The MAX pack is definitely doing its job, though, because I won't be able to finish but half. So disregard the half sandwich in the picture. I'm actually eating a quarter sandwich.

Off topic personal note: I don't know how many people read this blog. I don't even look at the insights, because I don't want to be discouraged and find out that no one reads it. Being accountable, and inspirational to anyone publicly had given me such a step up in my weight loss success. By not looking at the page views or followers, for all I know, a million people are seeing every bite I eat, and following me every mile of cardio along the way. It has made the difference for me on this journey! I may be completely deleterious in thinking that I'm actually helping others reach their goals, but the idea of being a role model to someone struggling is something I have been taking very seriously! Whoever is reading my blog and following my journey, you're to thank for my current, and future weight loss success!

I'm having an apple for a snack, and then it's off to the pool with the husband and all five kiddos. I only lost 5 pounds this week, but five pounds is less than I weighed before, so ill take it!!!

We stayed at the pool for two and a half hours, and I did laps and water walking most of the time! Easiest work out ever, and fun with my family = win!

I've skipped some eating today, but not intentionally. I've just been busy! I'm having frosted mini wheats with 1% milk for dinner.
