Sorry for missing last week. To backtrack, last week went pretty well. I didn't eat the healthiest food, which I need to improve on, but I was able to keep my calories at or below my goal most days. It is really hard for me to feel full on smaller amounts of food, but I am finding it easier some days, if I give in a eat something that I want, then just count that as my meal, then my calories still stay low and I feel less deprived.
This week though, is going to have to be written off. Grandma and Grandpa Fullmer were here and it was bad. That is all I'm going to say. We both went to bed every night feeling sick. It did make us realize though that we have felt so much better these last few weeks keeping better track of what we are eating, even though we aren't perfect. We feel really motivated to get back on the wagon, not in a blow it and diet again way, but literally looking forward to eating normally again. We were saying we really feel like we can do this, we know we can. This is the first time I have really felt sure that I can meet my goals. Not to say I won't run into doubts and problems along the way, but it great when you have those moments, and I'm going to hold onto that.
Linz, I loved your letter! Hope your week is going well, and Aly, hope you are doing well too. Dad may be joining us, and if you are reading this, we're glad you are! Week 4 and we're still going, yeah!
