Yesterday was day 8. I was outside from about 9am – 9pm last night, so I didn’t get to write about the day yesterday. It was another whirlwind. I had my usual scrambled eggs and lemon water for breakfast. I think they are starting to make me a bit sick. Just the thought of eating eggs this morning makes me want to vomit. So after the eggs, I headed outside to get Gus ready to go cross-country schooling at Twin Towers. They are closing the course on Monday, and it is supposed to rain all weekend. At 9:45am Wade, Gus, and I left the barn and headed to Ann and Jim’s (grandparents) house. I dropped Wade off, went to the bank, and made it to Twin Towers by 10:30- ish. In the truck I ate a small handful of carrots and drank the rest of my lemon water. I headed home after x-c schooling, and grabbed one piece of leftover pizza and a cup of Mt.Dew for lunch. I ran back outside to ride one more horse before I had to go back to Bellbrook to pick up some grain. I did stop at the dairy shed in Bellbrook and got a small chocolate (soft serve) ice cream cone. I even ate the cone. When I got back home, I loaded up 3 more horses and girls the girls that go with them and went back to Twin Towers for x-c schooling. Once the girls finished, it was 6:30pm. We headed home after a very successful trip. On the way back to the farm, we stopped at Wendy’s where I ordered a grilled chicken sandwich with lettuce only, a side salad (no dressing), and an unsweetened iced tea (with sweet and low). I taught another lesson from 7:30-8:30, and did the last round of hay for the night. I was inside by 9pm. I had a handful of trail mix while I sat on the couch for a minute. I was in bed by 10pm. 2 out of 3 ain’t bad.
OFFICIAL WEIGH-IN……. As of day 8, I have lost 4 pounds on the “non-diet”.
