 Darlings, from the bottom of my heart, I hope your Easter was filled with happiness, wonderful moments spent with your dear ones and some well-deserved rest.  

Well, no need to lie-- mine was one big feast. Because our family's pretty religious, Easter is the single most important celebration of the year (which obviously goes hand in hand with lots and lots of cooking, followed by lots and lots of eating and lounging around). I can't deny that if I truly wanted to, I could have easily eaten maybe half of what I did without anyone really noticing, but you know how it goes.. one cookie, one piece of cake, then screw it and theeeeere goes your calorie plan for the day. My weight skyrocketed to 55.8 kg (123 lbs) in a  matter of three days and that's precisely the amount of time it took me to get back to the number the scale was showing before Easter started. So yes, I'm back to where I was. And now.. on I go! :)

Conclusion: no regrets here. None.
It's rather funny, really-- look:

  
 Oh yes-- I've been meaning to ask you-- are any of you, my beautiful girls, on My Fitness Pal? I've been using the app solely on my phone for quite a while (though, to be honest, I've been on and off), but maybe it'd help me to see how someone else is doing, and well, who knows, maybe it'd help someone else to see my (fingers crossed!) progress as well? Just a thought.. If you'd like... add me maybe?

Here's to us and the wonderful days ahead...one day the struggles will be only memories. I believe in you, my loves. We're in this together..please never lose hope. We can do this and we will succeed: we're good enough and strong enough, no matter what other people tell us, understand?
