So I got up this morning and I weighed myself, first thing. I'm still not ready to tell you the exact number, but I lost 9.5 pounds since last weigh-in. That's a total of 18 pounds. Or 23 pounds from my in-a-towel-with-wet-hair weigh-in, if you count that one, which I totally do, b/c 23 pounds sounds really impressive! But I guess I'll go with the more accurate 18 pounds, which is still more than 5% of my original body weight. Which makes me pretty happy.
Even though I've had slips these past two weeks (the cookie incident), I've managed to stay on track enough to lose some weight. And I have to say, it feels good. My pants are a tiny bit looser. My bras fit a little bit better. I have more energy. And I sleep better when I exercise.
Now the bad part, when I input my new numbers into myfitnesspal, I totally lost 110 calories per day! That means less eating every day. But if I want to keep losing, I have to continue to eat less and less. (Teaser: More on that in a later blog, really interesting fact I found out.)
Thanks for checking in on me and for reading my blog. The encouragement and help I've received from my friends is keeping me focused. I've usually lost that focus by now, so thank you!
