my pants are loose!

Even in spite of my derailment, yesterday, I woke up this morning, 2 pounds less than my pre-pregnancy weight and my normal pants are feeling a little bit loose. I can't believe it, but it's all the fuel I need to keep at this. 

As you may or may not know, my pre-pregnancy weight wasn't one to brag about. It was the point in my life when I joined weight watchers (only to have them kick me out when I got pregnant) but either way, it is a great feeling to be back at a familiar starting point. 

This is how I finished off yesterday. 

3:00
Popcorn - 3 cups - 1 "always" carb

5:00 
String Cheese - 1 "thumbs up" protein

8:00
Salmon - 2 oz - 1 "thumbs up" protein
Salad - 1.5 cups or so, counting it as 1 vegetable
Strawberries - 1 fruit
Blue Cheese - 1 "perilous" fat (sad, we love blue cheese)
Olive oil - 1 fat
Frozen lemonade pie - 1 fat

Carbs: 2.5/6
Protein: 4.5/6
Fruit: 2/3
Fat: 5/3
Veg: 2/4.5

I'm still getting too much fat, not enough veggies, protein or carbs. That's not all that shocking to me, really. Definitely an area I can work on. Small changes can yield big results. I'm already proof of that. I'm excited and inspired. I think this is a lifestyle I can keep up.
