Day 73 - Loo La Loo Rah!

Feeling pretty happy today as I'm down in the 82's. I've been here very briefly twice in the last month, but I feel like today I'm really here! I've been hovering around the 83 mark and slowly heading down. It feels really good, and sustainable. My BMI is coming down too. When I started it was over 28 which is near the top of the overweight range. It's dropped now to 26 - only a couple more to go before I'm in the healthy range. I can do this!

Had a good morning snack today - half a large wholemeal pita with hummus. Possibly a little high on the calorie side, but tasty, and hopefully it stops the afternoon cravings - we'll see!

Last night we made Vietnamese Beef Noodle Soup. It was really yummy, mainly cos I think Greg spiced up the broth a bit with some chilli and other goodness. I've got the leftovers for lunch. It seems even when we make the Michelle Bridges portions we nearly always have some left over for lunch!

After dinner we went to the driving range and I was so much better than at Mona Vale. Really looking forward now to getting out there and playing again!

Also today we just committed to going to Canada with Grandpa next year. Pretty exciting! So much for last year being the last trip for him. Going to be so awesome to be able to share it with him and the rest of the family. We were planning on going to Japan early next year, but will now be Canada instead. Part of me is a little disappointed as we so wanted to do Japan, but this is our only chance to go with Grandpa, and it will be really good to take Greg to some of the places I so enjoyed going to before we met. It's awesome that we're going to Sun Peaks and Silver Star which are the two we went to last time I went over with the family. Will be great to see if it's like I remember it. I'm starting to look forward to it!
