Hello! I am so excited about how well I have been doing. I know it is only day 4, but usually at this point I have at least cheated once or twice. And I am happy to report that I have not cheated one time! I know you really aren't supposed to weigh in but one time a week- I had to do it early though. This morning I am 4 pounds lighter. Not a big number but it hasn't even been 4 complete days!!! I mentioned in an earlier post that I introduced a new work out and let me just say it has been hard and I am sore, but after I am done it feels really nice to know that I am making my body my slave instead of the other way around!
Love to all!
I forgot to mention that last night with dinner I made Broiled Tomatoes and they are delicious! Where have they been all my life. You gotta try them!
2 large tomatoes
drizzle with Olive oil
sprinkle with salt and fresh cracked pepper
top with fresh low fat Parmesan cheese
Broil for about 7 minutes until well browned...Enjoy!

Surviving Day One
Hi all! I wanted to give you an update and let you know how my first day went on my journey to weight loss. It was pretty rough. Not terribly bad but I am pretty sure that I thought about food all day long. How lame is that?! It wasn't that I was hungry, I just thought about everything that I knew I couldn't have. Here are what my meals looked like yesterday:
Breakfast: 2 eggs, 1 slice of canadian bacon and a cup of coffee
Snack: 2 slices of cheese and 2 pieces of low fat turkey lunch meat
Lunch: Chilled tuna, Cottage cheese, and radishes
Snack: Cucumber slices
Dinner: Grilled chicken salad w/ low sugar dressing
I also drank more water than I think I ever have. I am encouraged today because I feel good. I don't have that full/bloated feeling that I usually have. And if I start feeling hungry than I eat. I am going to the store this afternoon to get some sugar free fudge pops and sugar free jello. These are allowed during this first phase and I think it will help satisfy my sweet tooth. Today I am also incorporating a new work out. We went to Wal-mart and got it. It is called The Biggest Loser Boot Camp Workout. I am excited to see the results from this! How is it going for you? I know several of you have contacted me to let me know that you will be doing some sort of weight loss plan with me- I think that is awesome! I cannot wait to hear how you are doing!! Stay strong!
