My First Check-In

Last Wednesday (May 11th) I had my very first weigh and measure on this new program and.......

I lost 5 inches and 14 pounds! WOO-HOO! 

I am so excited about my first week of results and even though this week has been tough and rough for me I try to keep those results in the forefront of my mind. And my kids have been so, so , SO supportive. When I am having a tough time, or having a craving or eating something that I'd rather not be eating I look at them and say "Help mommy! Remind mommy why I'm doing this!" and they are sweet- they do just that! Sometimes they are "child-like" honest (ouch) but it always re-inspires me to not give up or give in.

So far this week I am doing fair to pretty good. A few days I barely made the minimum of 64oz on water and a couple times I had some meal struggles, but no cheating (unless it was on accident.) I have also learned that for my body timing is CRUCIAL! When I am hungry I am hungry and I need to eat- I cannot wait or I get CRANKY and tired! But when I stay on track I feel pretty good and I am finding my focus isn't always food or what I can do with food or when I am eating next, but rather on things I can do to stay busy- it is a nice feeling.

Wednesday I weigh-in again and we'll see how I have done. Right now I am worried I haven't done so well, but I need to think positive. I have three days to do my best and I am going to!
