You are what you eat

I haven't been as good at the gym as I was earlier in the year but I have been making some substantial changes to my eating habits.  I have learned that you really are what you eat.  I stepped on the Wii Friday morning and weighed in at 152lbs.  OMG!  I can't tell you the last time I weigh this little- it has been at least 15 year.  I feel great and I a learning the foods that I can't eat any longer: pizza, sweets, cheese.  All which are a total bummer BUT I feel so much better and I am beginning to enjoy the taste of fruit and vegetables.  I have even been eating raw cashews and almonds. It is amazing how good they can taste without the salt.  I know I know... I am sounding like one of those health food nuts. Scary!!! Diet Soda is finally out- I guess it is bad for you.  I am attempting to drink at least 3 Naglene bottles a day.  

We leave for our cruise in a month, hopefully I can get a little closer to my goal.  It would probably help if I worked out again...Off to the treadmill I go. 
Here are my measurements since my last post:

Right Arm: 11.5" (lost .5")
Chest: 32.5" (lost 2")
Waist: 29.25" (lost .75")
Hips: 39.25" (lost 1.5")
Right Thigh: 21." (lost .5")

Here are my updated photos- sorry about the no makeup thing. :-)  I am wearing the same shorts as the last post- I can see quite a difference in my butt.  (Includes my new tattoo and Teddy who decided he wanted to be in the photos this time)

I hope you find this motivating... let me know if you have any suggestions. I'VE ONLY GOT A MONTH PEOPLE!!! Still a year til forty though... Thank God.
