Okay- so I weighed in a day early, I couldn't wait! And boy, I sure was happy with what I read on the scale. I lost another 5 pounds, which is totally great and more than my weekly weight loss goal (3lbs).
I think I'm finally starting to be able to see a difference in my body. I can tell a little around my stomach and a little in my face. It's nice being able to start SEEING some results. It's definitely making it more "real" and keeps me pumped up to continue trying my best.
I had a HUGE diet "oh no" moment earlier today when a friend wanted to go to KFC and I realized that I wanted _everything_ on the menu, but couldn't _eat_ anything on it. I just clenched tight to my protein shake and waited it out.
I've been giving myself a "cheat day", if you will, every 3-4 weeks or so. I had one for Thanksgiving, which I sampled almost every dessert! My next one is going to be Christmas dinner, but this time I'm skipping the desserts and saving the calories for my dinner roll, potatoes and gravy. Believe me, I'm counting down the days!
Another thing I've started doing is Pilates. So far, it's kicking my butt, and it makes me sore for days. I'm not going to quit though. I'm due for another session tonight (Netflix is great for those videos, they have TONS so I never get bored). It's a little depressing though watching all those skinny minnies not even breaking a sweat and I'm dripping, crouched over and gasping for breath! I guess I'll go get ready for my reality check now.
So, this is day 48 and I weigh 254.
