Good morning friends!

How do you like the morning posting?

I kind of like it. It's different. I'm not sure if I'll keep it up. We'll see.

I made it through day two yesterday of counting calories. I resisted the donut that was in our house yesterday and split it up between the kids. Everything was going well until we started making cookies for my husband's work.

I ate two whole cookies and probably the equivalent of three cookies in cookie dough. I accidentally got mint chocolate chips for the cookies instead of regular chocolate chips, which oddly enough my husband really liked.

Remember he doesn't like mint chocolate chip?

Then, our daughter accidentally added 1 tbl of baking soda instead of 1 teaspoon. My husband still liked the cookie, but, well, I'm not so sure I do. (even though I ate a bunch of the dough..ha, ha...the dough actually tasted better than the cookie)

So, I don't plan on having any today.

Not that I'm trying to restrict my calories or anything this first week of counting calories.

I actually gained back a pound from the two pounds that I lost yesterday morning. That's why this pregnancy thing is so strange. The weight tends to fluctuate oddly.

But I'm still sticking to my 70 days of counting calories. Everything I eat will be written down.

I made a lot of healthy foods choices yesterday. Spinach salads, eggs, chicken breast, fruits and veggies.

We plan to make eight loaves of bread today with also some home made wheat noodles.

So, this post is meandering a bit. But today is day three of counting calories...the last day of the hardest part of starting. I can do it...you all can do it!!!

And I'm still working on getting some pictures added.

Is anyone out there adding pictures to their calorie counting note books? or their WW notebook's? I'm trying to decided if my "dream" picture of me should be me...not pregnant...or of some slim and trim pregnant gal.

Ha, Ha, Maybe I'll do both!

Well, 69 days and counting.

Have a good one!

Sincerely,
Sunshine Mama
