Weight Loss Clinic Appointment & Generosity

I swear that's what my scale thinks sometimes.

Well, I had my weight loss clinic appointment today. I have them every Tuesday morning. I go and weigh in, they take measurements and I get my next round of supplements. Today, their scale said I lose 4.2 pounds! Whoo-hoo! This is off from my weigh ins on BuddySlim.com on Fridays/Saturdays. So I get two weigh ins! I also lost 4.5 inches as well. I am super psyched! I am also looking forward to weighing in this week and having another loss! Go me...go me...(do the cabbage patch here). Like I said, I also pick up my next round of supplements. So far I have found over the counter replacements for all of them that contain the same amounts, except the metabolic enhancer. To be honest, I haven't really looked for the replacement for that yet. There are so many ingredients in that one to compare. But I have to do it in the next couple of weeks. I only have one more appointment next Tuesday and then my Groupon will have run out. I just can't afford to go every week. With the weigh ins, measurements and supplements, it comes out to around $100 a week, depending on the supplements you get. That's just out of my price range. But I feel like I now have the tools and knowledge to continue on my own. Plus finding out about the anemia and correcting my vitamin deficiency has greatly helped me and was well worth the price of the Groupon in my eyes!

Today, my fiance's father also called me and asked if I wanted to bring the kiddos and go to the local meat market. I gratefully accepted. He offered to buy us enough meats to begin to fill our new freezer (which he also bought for us out of the blue). I really appreciate everything that he does for us. We didn't ask for a freezer or food to go in it, he just bought it and had it delivered to us...SURPRISE! It was a great surprise. So was the trip to the meat market. I got lots of meats and got them at super low prices. I made sure to get as many lean meats as possible. But I also got some regular ones for the rest of my family since they are not dieting. I got crawfish, shrimp, fish, bacon, rib eye steaks, pork chops, chicken leg quarters, skinless-boneless chicken breasts, a rack of ribs, a pork shoulder and various sausages. It was an amazing haul. It took me about two hours to package all of it and put it in the freezer. He also grows tons of vegetables in pots in his yard, and told me that in a couple weeks I need to come harvest them! I will gladly eat those! He planted cabbage, zucchini, yellow squash, tomatoes, cucumbers and lemon cucumbers. I've never had those, but they sound interesting! He is so generous towards us. I wish we could do more for him. My son stays at his house every Thursday while my daughter is in school. Josh loves going over there, and his Paw-Paw loves him being there. He looks forward to it every week. I don't really need him to watch Josh, but they both have such a good time that I like to take him over there. I just can't believe how generous he has been...I can't get over it. I really appreciate that man. I will have to try harder to make sure he knows just how much.
