My Eyes and Ears MUST Be Deceiving Me...

Within the last 24 hours I have seen and heard some really great and exciting news.

First things first.

THEO's GYROS is coming to Bethlehem!! My Pops called me last night to let me know that he saw a sign up saying "Theo's is coming." For those of you that don't know me or my obsession with this place, this is really big news. Theo's Gyros is only in Bethlehem one time of the year during the Musikfest, so at that time I tend to eat one of their gyros a day for dinner (or try to :)). Please spare me the "that can't be good for you lecture."  Last year was the only year that I couldn't make it to the fest to get one because of the extreme heat and my newborn at the time but my parents brought it to me on the last day. OMGoodness!

I stumbled upon these amazing gyros back in '98 when I was in high school and still to this date I haven't found a better gyro. Some like, Johnnie's Drive-in, have come close but still can't take that title in my opinion. So every chance I get, I try to introduce another newbie to it. My hubby was one of my victims a few years ago and he too has been in search for the better gyro and has failed.  I think the funny part of it, is that I have practically grown up with one of the cooks there. I don't know his name but I have seen him every year since '98, so he knows my ever changing face so well.  I just hope that this new place will not disappoint! Oh man, now I want one :|

I have even more exciting news...

I am not one to step on the scale often. It isn't a fear I have, it's just that I don't care. I think there is too much emphasis on the number when in all honesty your health is determined by many factors. Back when I was SUPER thin and in great shape, the scale still said 135 lbs, so you can imagine how the numbers can fool you. Now, let me state that I know I am overweight. This I won't deny but I am not going to stress myself out over my weight because I know when I start losing, it will be inches first and the number may or may not follow immediately.

Having said that, I decided to get on the scale, just to see where I was at. When I saw the number, I thought my eyes were deceiving me. I dropped another 3 pounds! In total, I am down 6 pounds. The funny part is that I haven't really changed much of my eating and I haven't worked out yet. It may be contributed to my nearly 2 month fasting of any soda, diet or not, and the fact that my daughter is walking around so I am chasing her more often. Plus, constantly carrying a 20+ lb. baby has to do something for me. This is exciting! Now if I can kill the last 44 pounds! Okay, did I just contradict myself? Ah, who cares! I know what I have to do, so I just have to suck it up and do it. Here's to completing this goal! I can't wait to wear my wedding rings again!

Have a great week my fab followers!!
