Dieter's Log: Day 32 - Over One Month Already!!!

Yesterday, marked the start of Phase III of our diet. We can now have whole wheat bread, english muffins-which I'm super excited about, and whole wheat pasta. We can also have turkey sausage, and increase our regular meat portions to 5oz/serving. And we can have desserts, even though it had to be only 2-4 oreo-sized cookies, 2 whole graham crackers (2 rectangles), or...are you ready?...one scoop of low fat ice cream!!!! Okay, so it's the little things that keep me going!I can't believe it's already been a month. We weighed in yesterday and I lost another 2.6lbs for a total of 15.6lbs. Derek lost another 4.4lbs, bringing his total to 20.8lbs. It's freakin' amazing! I was worried about gaining weight since we went to GF and Fargo this last weekend, but we kept ourselves (and Kevin) in check for the most part. Doug supported us, but wasn't willing to order salad with us. Our cheats consisted of croutons on our salad and tortilla chips with salsa! I know, it's so exciting?! We didn't eat any cheeseburgers or chili cheese fries. At this point, I worry that I would get sick from greasy fast food since I haven't had it for so long.The weekend was a little off, though. April couldn't come cuz she had to work and Karissa got sick on Friday so she decided to stay home. Then Doug didn't feel "right," he said it was because of too much caffeine. Then after we ate lunch on Saturday, I got an upset stomach. So da' boys dropped me off at the hotel and the went antiquing. Doug found a semi-hallow bass that Derek bought himself for his birthday...Which is March 6th(too bad we can't drink, or we'd need to party). We finally got to the concert-it didn't start until 10pm, but it was totally worth it. I really wish April and Karissa could have been there. I tried posting pics and videos last night, but it got too late, so I'll finish it tonight. I was kinda pissed, cuz my pics didn't turn out the greatest. Since it's new I don't know all the settings, so I was messin' with them during the show. So some turned out and others didn't. I was going back and forth between using a flash, which made it to bright and using the natural light, which gave everything a red glow but those are kinda cool.I'll post my pics tonight. Be sure to come back and check them out. Ta Ta
