Comcast is Annoying!

Sorry for the delay in blogging but a comcast employee cut our cable/internet line last Thursday while burying our neighbors new line. So needless to say we haven't had cable/internet until today because it takes a thousand years, or so it seems, to get someone out to your house when there is a problem!

So now that I am connected to the real world again here we go! Last week went really well. I am continuing to adjust to the lifestyle change more and more everyday. I ran into some difficulty this weekend however when we were in Wisconsin for the weekend. I thought for sure it would be fairly easy to stick to my eating habits while we were gone because you can get plain grilled chicken or unseasoned meat everywhere, right?! WRONG!! I had a horrible time finding something to eat. We went to cracker barrel and I ordered plain grilled chicken tenders with no seasoning, a side salad and cottage cheese. The waitress returns moments later and states that she can't get the chicken without seasoning because it comes pre-seasoned. So I proceeded to ask about the other meat on the menu only to find out that all of their meat pork chops, steak, chicken etc. all had some kind of seasoning on it. So needless to say I finally found a hamburger that didn't have any seasoning added to the meat and was finally able to eat dinner after spending a good 20 or more minutes scouring the menu for something other than a plain salad.

Overall, I have lost 16 pounds since I started my lifestyle change on July 28th. I am very excited about the weight loss. I am also excited about how I have never been able to anything like this before and now I know that I CAN do all things through my God if I just trust and believe! If you are trying to lose weight or just be healthier, lean on God and believe, he truly can work miracles! God Bless!

Lost 16lbs? That's great! I wish you more success on your diet. I used to be on a no carb diet. It worked well for me.
