I LOST 11 POUNDS!!! Bittersweet on the heels of a friend's death the other day.

On Tuesday I weighed in at the doctor's office, and I have lost 11 pounds!!  Whoo hooo!  I would do a video blog about it but a friend of mine, Kim, passed away on Tuesday and I have been a bit out of sorts.

Under the stress of her death, I have been pretty good with the food.  I've been indulging a little too much in sugar-free popsicles (15 calories each) and staying away from buffets of food.  Not sure how I will handle the viewing and funeral coming up but for now it's one hour at a time for me.  I am so sad.  It is taking all my effort to sit with my feelings and not drown them out with overeating.  I figure if popsicles are doing the trick, then bring them on.

Last night I had four popsicles during a binge, equaling 60 additional calories.  I guess I should be grateful that it wasn't 6000 calories wolfing down cakes, pie, and other empty calorie treats.

That's something!

Kimmie would be proud!
