Week 3...Not as Easy Now :(

Well, week one seems like a breeze compared to weeks 2 & 3...*sigh* 

I've not done the best the last few days, but I won't let that derail me. A slip-up here and there won't drag me down, I just need to get back on the horse and muddle through...right? Dieting with someone else really helps, that kind of support really makes a difference. 

I'll be adding that Turkey Quinoa Meatball recipe any day now lol, I've been so busy making soaps and coasters for my shops, that the cooking has gone by the wayside a little bit. Plus I'm PMSing bad! That definitely does not help!

But, onward & upward, right?

Week One...Done!

So, it's been a week on the diet. For me, the first week isn't the hardest, the second week is. My first week went pretty well, I stuck to the plan, for the most part. I had a couple slip-ups where I ate a snack after 8pm, but whatever! It's like a reflex for me, when I'm watching tv, I just automatically want to munch on stuff, whether I'm hungry or not. It's definitely a habit I need to BREAK!

Well, I've lost 2.4 pounds in week one, so that's good, right? I just have to keep telling myself that it's slow going lol.

So, here's to a good week 2!!!

Day One...Success!

So, day one is pretty much over. I'm going to bed in a few hours & I'm done with everything I planned to do & eat today. I'm considering it a success. I cleaned for about an hour & a half and used the recumbent bike for 20 minutes...not perfect but, hey, it's the first day!

I consumed 895 calories and burned 346. I drank 10 glasses of water. And the last time I ate was at 6:30 pm, so win all the way around!

So, day one is over and I feel happy that I followed through with everything I wanted to...oh, and I showered AND lotioned! Here's to a good day two!
