Day 3-4

I weighed myself again this morning and I am down 4 pounds since yesterday; this brings my total up to 7 pounds, so far. I am beyond excited and motivated that I am actually seeing a difference.  It shows me that I must do my part in order for this to work.  I am capable of being disciplined and following a healthier eating plan. 

Now, I must admit that I did have moments where I wanted nothing more than a whopper from Burger King. I kept seeing the commercials and yearned to taste one. I just keep revisiting the feeling that I had at the white party I mentioned earlier, and I am quickly brought back to reality.

In an effort to not be obsessive, I will not weigh myself again until Friday or Saturday.  In the beginning, I feel it is necessary for me to weigh myself so I can determine if the plan is working or if I need to make adjustments. Since I am aware that it is working, at this time, there is no need to weigh in everyday. After week 1, I will determine how often I should conduct weigh-ins.

Day 4:
Down a total of 8.4 pounds.  I know I didn't keep my word about not weighing myself, but I had to.  I plan to weigh myself again on Saturday and then on Monday to obtain week 1 results. I have also been exercising daily.  I walk a little over a mile at work everyday, just to clear my head.  I also do the elliptical or treadmill for an hour.  Recently I added weights and squats.  My goal is to eventually get a trainer or join a gym soon.

Breakfast: Shake
Snack: Carrots
Lunch: Turkey burger patty with shredded cheese on top and broccoli
Snack: Cheese bites and grapes
Dinner: Cauliflower Pizza
