Princess and the Pea, Be Gone!

Well it finally happened! We got our new mattress today...yipeeeeee! You have no idea what that sad mattress we had looked like. I could feel the springs outlining the place that I lay in every night. I've been sleeping on top of a comforter that was folded over just for some padding. And oh the new one is glorious! Mac is so good, he stayed home to wait for the delivery guys and he washed all the bedding and had it all made up for me when I got home. LOVE IT!

Got on the scales this morning, 99 pounds lost! Hopefully by the end of the weekend I'll be over the 100 mark. I don't have to go back to the Doctor for my 6 month check up until November 1st, so I think I can make it. =) I have to say it hasn't been that hard. I've done really well, and I've been so lucky that I haven't found anything I absolutely can't eat. (except for really, really, greasy stuff, that does not feel good at all) So I have a protein drink in the mornings, a salad and some kind of protein (tuna, chicken, etc) for lunch and the same for dinner. For snacks I usually have sugar free popsicles (oh so yummy, love the cherry flavored ones), sticks of cheese, spinach and artichoke dip with sugar free crackers, etc. We've had mexican food several times, I usually get beans, and a chile relleno. Mac got me hooked on those. The chile is stuffed with cheese, and it's usually in a great red sauce. (I try to scrap off most of the breading) Anyway, I feel great and I just can't believe how quickly it's happened.

Thanks for the comments from Sara, Mom and Honkie! I really appreciate the encouragement!

Next week are mid terms, so far I have all A's. (hope the kids are reading this!) So I'm off to take 2 quizes and finish my homework like a good girl.

Also, I just wanted everyone to know, I left my cell phone in Ohio when Mac and went up there two weekends ago. I'm in the process of getting another one. I'll advise when I get it. Meanwhile, I have Mac's cell and he has his Blackberry. So you can reach me at his number 757-561-7781.

Talk to ya Sunday!
