The easter bunny is evil... sorry mom

I'm just using the poor bunny as a scapegoat. I can not let my weight loss go to my head, or more accurately- my belly. Although as Mom said, our arms look quite great in our Easter pic.

Yesterday Brian's family came out to the CL for dinner (just his mom and her b/f). He said I looked amazing and asked if I had been working out. Ha. Funny, considering the last time he saw me I was 15 lbs heavier. That was nice.

ALTHOUGH. I have not weighed today because I feel terrible about yesterday. I had a lovely Easter lunch: smoked chicken, green beans with shrooms, pepper and corn mixture. And I should have stopped there. But did I? NO. I then had three cheese sticks, a bunch of almond clusters, two beef jerky sticks, three bits of caramel pop corn, a rolo candy, lord knows how many crutons at CL, a sides salad at CL, 2 and 1/2 pieces of angel food cake (two of them with strawberries and whipped cream)... what am I forgetting? Does it even matter at this point? Because I had WAY TOO MUCH. I just snack snack snack snacked. I'm sure if I step on the scale today I'll see the food caught up to me already. So I have to beat the fat to the chase and work out super hard today.

One positive piece of Easter news to report: The bunny provided Jillian videos and ankle weights, sugar free candy and fruit. Hillarious! It's like the bunny knows our Jillian obsession and lifestyle change. Truly magic. haha

I am going to do my Jillian video. I f'd up on Linds today. She is getting back into it after a slip up week, just like we are. She asked me to work out today and even blogged. I got so side tracked planning B's grad a party and cleaning my house because the mother in law (type thing) is coming over tonight, that I missed Lindseys texts to join her in a workout. Then Leah's blog makes me feel guilty too. We blame our schedules but think about it. Before we all became experts, we somehow found time to all get together for our workouts, which proves it can be done. Linds was a good "cut maker" and went to the gym today. I'll do my video and Leah you should come over and do it with me! I'm about to call you, haha.

Luckily my knees are feeling better! I don't want to jinx it so I'll keep iceing them at bed time. But I think I'm ready for Jillian again. I did okay on the dog walk. They were throbbing a little at the end, which tells me I should continue to lay off the jogging. So sad. But the walk was fun and I liked pix of myself there. My legs looked small. Yayyy.

Last week is a gray week. Let's leave it in the past becuase we know what it feels like to be light and confident and healthy. With new knees, plenty of reasons to be fit and a new outlook, things should go well.

Off to get busy. Stay with it ladies! By the way... what a fun weekend!
