Birthday Celebrations

Well last night we took Jon out for his birthday to Chili's. I surprised him by having all of his friends meet us there, too! We had a good night, it wasnt too terrible for me because I was concentrating on Kaitlyn eating and not all the food I couldnt have. I did order a side of mashed potatoes so I had something to eat a bit of while everyone else was eating. It's not so bad going to eat and feeding K and not paying attention to all of the wonderful food around the table that I cant have!

I had a good night last night, though I am feeling a bit emotional and cryish today for some reason. I realized last week when I was feeling extremely hungry and was incredibly bitchy, it was because I was starting my period... which is coming so much sooner than normal. I was going about every month and a half or so but lately it's been about half that time. Thats fine, I understand my hormones are going whacky from losing weight so quickly but I wasnt prepared! :) Though, are we ladies EVER ready?? Wait, our men arent ready ever either! lol

Anyway, since I'm normally here complaining about how I feel or how sad I am, I thought I would write about an ok experience. I know things will get easier and I will have more and more OK experiences and then I will have more and more GREAT ones too.

On a good note, since I got addicted to weighing myself again, I weighed this morning and I was 260lbs... I've lost 40lbs in 5 weeks. I'm starting to feel better about my weight loss. It's going to be great walking into see Dr H, in a couple weeks, after losing this much! He will be so proud of me!!
