300 days

As of Sunday, my wife and I have been losing weight for 300 days.    It's a mind-boggling number, but we're keeping our sense of humor about it.

Essentially, this weekend was a "lost weekend" for the diet.  My in-laws came to visit us on Saturday, and we had a Sunday lunch meeting.  So Saturday lunch was turkey brats (on whole wheat buns), baked beans and regular potato chips.   Dinner, we let the boys make homemade pizza for us. . . again a "little" healthy -- whole wheat crust and turkey sausage, but regular pepperoni and cheese.

Yesterday we ate out for lunch, as I said, during a meeting.  We tried to be healthy, but . . . sometimes if you live in Springfield IL, you have to have a horseshoe sandwich.  (Or in this case, the smaller portion "Pony Shoe"

During our meeting, someone commented on the weight loss, and Karen hit on a great description:  we've now lost nearly 90 pounds between us -- so she says we've "lost a fifth grader!"
