7.8 pounds and counting!

I got weighed for the first time this past Wed. I lost 7.8 pounds in my first week! Go me! I don't lose weight easily, so that is really saying something.

I'm dealing with some mild hunger today, but it's mild enough to deal with, no problem. I'm still tasting the Southwest chicken w/ rice and beans when I burp, though- no bueno.

It should be interesting. My boyfriend is coming in fro Ohio on the 3rd and wants to make dinner for me every night that he's here. Oh yummyness. Three nights of sinful yummy goodness. I'll just have to use portion control.

Day something or other

So today was Sunday. Yay! I love Sundays. I had a blueberry muffin for breakfast and a cheesy enchalada for lunch. After lunch, me and a couple of friends decided to paint the town red. They wanted to start off with Chili's, as they hadn't yet eaten. So I met them there. I had a glass of Diet coke and.. drum roll please... 3/4 of a cup of mandrian oranges. Yeah, I actually ordered and paid for that. After that, we went to see the Hulk. After that, we went to a friends party, where I has crystal light. Yum. So then I got home and had my dinner, mesquite chicken. It was good

So, how am I doing? I should start by mentioning how incredibly proud of myself I am. This is probably the most dedicated I have ever been in my life. It's all actually really easy. Not to mention the food is really yummy, which was probably my main concern. I already feel better and more confident. I think it stems from the fact that I'm doing something about my situation. I love it. And now I'm gonna go love sleep.

Day 2 on my journey

It's 10:30 in the morning and I am already craving a baconator from Wendy's. Ugh. I just have to stay away from the wendy's next door to work. If I don't allow myself to go in there, I should be ok.

Yesterday, I had a really good day. It was only my first, but it was good. I was a bit hungry, but nothing I couldn't ignore. The in between snacks are perfect. Just enough to cut the hunger until my next meal.

Let's see.. what's on my menu for today? frosted oats cereal for breakfast, anytime bar for snack, southwestern style chcken burito for lunch, cheese curls for snack, meatloaf for dinner. All sound pretty yummy. Although, I'm kinda ify on the meatload. I shall reserve my judgments till after my mouth has savored its yummyness or has been tortured by it's ickyness.
