A Little Nervous . . .

I've been making some decent progress, one that I'm happy with. Thursday being my weigh day, and given the fact that I was up 1/2 a pound this week, I was a little nervous. Things have been stressful the past few days at work, and I definitely have not been exercising as much as I planned to this week.

Actually Sunday was the only day. . . . but I've been working hard to get my steps in this week, but only once reached my 10,000 goal.

Broke down Sunday when we went out to eat and had a little of my favorite potato dish off the buffet, and stuck mainly to the chicken and veggies. . . no rice . . that was tough as they have the best rice.

Had cake on Saturday at a Baby Shower, the only sweets that I've had since starting my life style change. I had promised myself only a bite or two . . ate the WHOLE thing, but did leave the frosting. But I started spring cleaning also and that helped keep me active, actually reached over 11,000 steps that day!

Ooops almost forgot to mention the BBQ Chicken Pizza that hubby brought home to eat. Ummm looking back in my journal, the last time I lost 4 pounds in one week hubby brought one of these home . . .

Well I braved getting on the scale . . . . I was down 4 more pounds! This brings me down a total of 24 pounds since January 1.

Sometimes I get the feeling that I can still eat normally, within reason, leaving just a few foods out of my diet I can still loose weight. Of course the biggie for me is that I'm not snacking all the time.

Weight: 264.8

  1. Keep it up! Weight loss that lasts is a slow, steady process. You really do have to simply make a lifestyle change, "diets" rarely work for the long term.
