Day 28 - The Struggle

Well, here we are at the beginning of another week of healthiness. But what a rough weekend it has been. But let's start with the numbers. As of right now, Erin has lost a total of 20 pounds and I have lost a total of 14 pounds. She is now shopping for new clothes and looking great. I am now officially on the last notch of my belt. Time to get a new one.

Here is where the challenge comes in. Let's start with Erin. Yesterday she was diagnosed with strepp throat. She is completely out of commission for the next couple of days. I feel bad for her since I will be working out without her. I am trying to cook smooth foods for her. Thanks to Rebecca, I made spaghetti squash last night. It was totally awesome! I am hoping she gets better soon.

As for me, I faced my biggest challenge this weekend. This was the first wedding that I have done since I started the challenge. Besides my meals fbefore the wedding, I had to have something to eat at night. They had chicken strips, meatballs, fried mushrooms, and of course, cake.

I got a plate with 2 of each.....not the cake and mushrooms though. But when I sat doen to eat, I had this really heavy weight of guilt on my shoulders. I was afraid to eat it. So I texted Rebecca freaking out. She said that it was ok. She said I could even have a small piece of cake. I LIKE HER!!!!!!!

But it has been a real challenge to not only get our workouts in and update our journals, but to also update the BodyBugg and also balance everything else out. I am starting to get a little stressed on that matter. I am going to see if a morning workout would help.

On the plus side, I was able to kill my mile in 14 Minutes on the treadmill. And Erin got a dress that really made her feel great. We are doing well.

Oh and check out whipit180.com for an updated video on us. You will notice one of the biggest differences. We are a lot happier with the results so far!!!!!!!!!
