Day 8

Or, day 1 of WEEK 2 if you will ;)

I'm still here and doing fabulously!

Last week I lost a whopping 12.6 pounds! I don't expect that kind of loss every week, but Holy Moly! That's just too cool!

So, I'm still here, gearing up for my first Tony Horton 10 Minute Trainer workout and hoping it doesn't totally lay me out flat!

Will update again!

The dreaded "before"

Today I took the dreaded "before" picture. It was unsettling. It's an eye opener to say the least, to see how I look to the rest of the world. It made me sad. but it also made me more determined to change.

So, today is day 7, and I'm still here.

Day 4!

Today is my fourth consecutive day of "trying" to lose weight, and all is well!

Elvis has jumped on board with me and we're planning healthy meals together and its been really helpful in keeping me motivated and on track with my goals!

I've increased my water intake, not a huge amount yet, but from 0 glasses a day to around 4, so it's a start! I've had Biggest Loser quality weight loss this week, which is also very motivating and I feel postive and confidant that I can keep this up!

Today we're all going out together, usually this means we're going to the mall, and usually this means a Teen Burger Combo with fries and gravy, not good! Today I asked Elvis if we could go out AFTER lunch, so I could stay at home and not be tempted to cheat so early in the game, and he of course agreed. So today I am determined to stay on course and not be sidetracked or derailed by temptation!

We ordered 10 Minute Trainer and it should be arriving next week, and then the real work will begin! Exercise, EEEEK! It scares me because I know I am bad at it, I know it will be uncomfortable, I know it will hurt and I am dreading it, but also I am really looking forward to the great results it will bring me!

I'll update again, I am not dissapearing this time!
