today was weight-in, and i came in at 268. that’s another 6 pounds i’ve lost, for a total weight loss so far of 31.5 pounds! it’s been at least 7 years since my weight was below 270. my next short-term goal is to be at 259 in two weeks. i’m taking this one day at a time, and keeping focused on where i want to be, but i am so enjoying looking back to see how far i’ve come in such a short time.
the bf lost another 2 pounds for a 25 pound total so far. i’m so proud of him!

saturday night, the bf and i went to new orleans for a wedding. one of doug’s clients (and friend), krista, got married at broussard’s in the quarter. i was scared that i’d really overdo it on the food, but i think i did fine. i did eat more than i have normally been eating, but no alcohol, and the slice of wedding cake was the worse thing i ate. but there was no way in hell i was passing up wedding cake.
but we went out after the wedding, and we were parked several blocks from the bars, so we did get in some excercise to burn off some of the calories from the Choux Puffs, Spicy Andouille Sausage, Marinated Fried Catfish Bits, Roasted Pork Loin, Gulf Fish Dore and Breast of Chicken With Sauteed Mushrooms and Green Peppercorn Sauce.
damn, that was a lot of food! but i ate small amounts, and it’s all good.
last night, we went out to dinner with all of my family for father’s day. we went to ryan’s, an all-you-can eat buffet. i had a huge salad, a little bit of a grilled chicken breast, a slice of ham and lots of fruit. no cheating for me, not even on father’s day.
