Pictures of ME!

I am always the Mom behind the camera! So, I searched high and low for unflattering pictures of myself to compare my weight loss at 4 weeks in and not only do I rarely take pics of myself, I most certainly don't keep the bad ones ;)

But, I know I have family (and friends!) that are out of town curious how the weight loss is going, so these are for you!
I still need to lose weight- I recognize it may be hard to tell since you don't have much to compare, but I can tell a big difference in the way my clothes fit. I have even bought a few things 2 sizes smaller! I have certainly lost the most in my midsection and hips. Going very low carb works- it is hard and I cheated more than once this week, but it works.
Marcus and I discussed last night- we are just getting bored with it. There are a good 10-15 vegetables you can eat- I only like 4 of them. So, we have had those 4 at dinner for 4 weeks. Blah! We have 2 weeks left and then it takes a few weeks to get foods reintroduced. I know we have changed so many bad habits in these 4 weeks and I really think we'll lose more weight as the summer goes on.

Today, Marcus has lost 11 pounds and I have lost almost 16. Friday is Marcus' birthday and we both plan to be really good without any cheating until Friday. We are going to splurge on lunch and sneak a few cookies into the movie theater! We have the day off- Abby is going to school so we can watch a matinee together... Hangover 2.
