Well...April has come and gone and I didn't hit my 30 pound goal. I have lots of excuses and a few of them are really good ones but I will spare you the details. I haven't given up though. I just got out of the grove of things.

I put on some of my summer clothes (the two nice days we have had this year) and they were too BIG!!! Hooray!!. I was staring in my closet this morning and I told Karl I wanted new clothes he said "me too". I told him I needed another month to work on my goal and then I will go summer clothes shopping.

Now...Karl has been one of my number one problems the past six weeks. He has become a brownie addict. He makes them atleast once a week. And they are delicious!! Karl can make a mean pan of brownies. The problem is he makes them after the kiddos are in bed, eats one while we watch a movie and then leaves them at home with ME the next day. Urr...if it's in front of me I have no self control. I have thrown them away a few times and then Karl comes home and asks where they are. I'd rather say they are in the garbage instead of saying I ate them.

I am thinner but mostly in the bra department. I think I lost 18 pounds in my chest and 1 in my face. When I see people I haven't see in a while they always comment on my hair. It drives me bonkers!! They say "oh wow your hair has gotten so long." In my head I think "my hair! Look at the size of my butt! It's shrunk!!"

I saw a guy the other day at a meeting that we used to go to church with. He didn't recognize me until I told him who I was. Then I got brave and said "I lost 19 pounds maybe I look a little different" do you know what he said "No I think it's your hair. It's lighter and longer than it used to be." Suck!!!

Oh well. Wish me luck. I still have 11 pounds to go...12 on a bad day. I need some motivation. So if you have any to spare send it this way.
