15 Pounds!

Yep, that's right, I have lost 15 pounds. My husband even told me I have my pre-pregnancy shape back! Whoo Hoo I have a shape and it is just not round!

So the new food sensitivity diet looks like it is working. I also do have more energy and less of what I call brain fog. I am just so delighted to actually be feeling better and the weight loss is just the greatest thing ever. I mean at most I have ever lost is 20 pounds at once and that was with Atkins. Of course, it came right back and then some.

I am also learning lots of new things to cook and I am doing things I never thought I would. For instance, since I can't have eggs I basically eat oatmeal every morning but after two weeks that is boring so I had brown rice with coconut milk and cherries. So yummy! Never in a million years would I believe I was the person grinding up flax seeds to put into her brown rice breakfast!

I guess I will also mention my boys since my new diet has hijacked their blog! String Bean is doing so great here of late. He can sing all the books of the testament and as of last week, can dress himself. He is just getting so big and learning things so fast now.
Butter Bean is trying to walk but just will not let go and take that first step. He will get there and I am in no rush to rush him into it yet. He is starting to play with String Bean more and more and wants to be in anything that String Bean is doing. Poor String Bean can't lay on the floor without Butter Bean tackling him.

Congratulations! Where did cooper learn to sing the songs? Nothing like that here...the other base here in japan has an AWANA program and I can't wait to get up there.
You are stronger than me with brown rice for breakfast...yucko! WAY TO GO!
