Another Day, Another Few Pounds Gone

Today is Day 5, and I feel really good. I've lost two and a half pounds a day, every day this week. When I woke up this morning I actually FELT thinner. What a great way to wake up! And people are starting to notice the changes, especially in my face and hips.

Yesterday wasn't a good day - I went and walked 10 sets of stairs and it wiped me out (normally I run 12 sets and I feel awesome). After my 10 sets I was hungry and grumpy and tired all day, even though I felt good while I was doing it. Moderation in exercise is obviously very important in this program. If I don't exercise at all, I feel sluggish. Moving my body makes me feel better than if I don't do anything, but too much was not a good choice.

Hey Alysia, hang in there, you are doing so great. The only problem now is you got me thinking about cheese. I love cheese and a glass of wine please!!!

I have a suggestion for you with the scale. Have someone else report your weight so you don't get into the number game. Just weigh yourself, close your eyes and don't cheat. They can only tell you that you have lost some pounds and only if you ask. I don't even own a scale and the pure thought of weighing myself everyday is scary.
