When I finally made it to my computer I discovered I did not have any internet service. Instead of updating my website, support groups, and catching up with my email, I worked on word documents. My internet was not working but my computer was working just fine.

It was lunch time when I put my leftover steak into the toaster oven. I opened a can of green beans and poured some vinaigrette over them before I began eating. I finished my green beans while I was waiting for my steak to warm up and when it was ready, I thoroughly enjoyed it.

I was able to put the stuff back under the sinks in two of the bathrooms and I only have one more left to do. Since I had to vacuum all the shavings out from under the sinks, I went ahead and vacuumed my bedroom, hallway, and the stairs.

My husband stopped and picked up dinner for us. He went to the taqueria and got our daughter, me, and himself a burrito. I made myself a salad and added cucumber as my vegetable and then I poured some vinaigrette dressing over the top. I ate it first and by the time I got to my burrito, I cut it in half and put the remainder in the refrigerator for another time.

I ended up getting my bowflex workout done by myself because my husband was up really early and he doesn't usually feel like it when he is tired. As a matter of fact, he was napping when I decided to get started so I didn't even ask him if he wanted to.

About me

I'm Teri. I am 52 years old, and I've been overweight most of my adult life. My diet and exercise program have me feeling better than I have ever felt before. I have lost close to 100 pounds since I began the Carbohydrate Addict's Lifespan Program in 2008, without starving or depriving myself in any way.

I am getting myself into better shape and my goal of becoming fit and healthy is getting closer every day. This will be my lifelong way of eating because I am happy to say that it comes natural to me!

Here's a link to my Progress Photos.
