Victory is bittersweet.....

The Spiking Sharks traveled to Chatham this weekend to participate in another club tournament. The goal of every tournament is to win..of course..but this time, we were successful. They boys played well, they played together and I think they had fun. Even Todd was pretty calm this weekend!! Unfortunately, Joel rolled his ankle in the semi-final round, so he was not able to play in the gold medal match, but he worked hard all day to get them to the gold match. I'm proud of the boys and they should be proud of themselves as well. They worked hard and it shows. I really am enjoying this club experience. All of the boys are great. They all get along well and they have fun when they are together. And all of the parents are great too. We do not have one "rotten apple" so that is awesome! Here is a picture of the boys lining up to receive their medals, and here is the shot of them after they got them!! Way to go Sharks!!!

Today is day 36 of my weigh loss journey, the beginning of week 6, and I am happy to say I am down 13 pounds all together. I was a little worried about this week as I ate out twice this week and that usually is a hard thing to control, but I made the best choices possible, and it worked out fine!
Chow for now
