Holy diet time Batman, it's already been one week since I've started this diet!! I cannot believe that one week ago I sat down with everyone else doing this diet, terrified about how I was going to make it 28 days!! Well, once I discovered all the food I CAN eat, I realized this was gonna be a great 28 days!
First, I should give a recap about yesterday. I went to bootcamp in the a.m. but then, at night, went to the Buffet at Mystic Lake Casino. I was SO proud of how I did. I started with a salad and roll w/fat free dressings, went onto rotissery chicken with veggies and no sauce, and yes, another roll! Then for dessert I had sugar free/fat free vanilla frozen yogurt (okay, so I added a bit of hot fudge, but it was my cheat meal!! Leave me alone!)
In the first week, from the time I weighed in on her scale, and then today on mine (so keep in mind, there may be some variance) but I have lost 7 pounds!! And I haven't done anything drastic at all! I changed to natural foods, no sugar, salt and fat, and am drinking a lot more water and no pop! The exercise I'm doing is what I've been doing before this whole thing started.
Starting this week however, I can expect to start seeing a plateau. It sucks but I just have to keep on, keep on. My body, for some reason, likes to get used to diets SO easily. Within two weeks it starts slowing down and I have to discover new ways of shocking it! I'm feeling healthy, motivated and back on track to my goals!! If I have to do a week or two of this every once and a while, so be it my friends, I will! Either way it's a new lifestyle which is leading me to a whole new life!!
Very proud of you, Honey. You have been doing this for almost two years! Most people (including someone I know quite personally) would have quit when the first plateau hit. You rock!
