I had my first weigh in. Down 6.6 lbs in 11 days. I was told this is totally average, however, I was hoping for more. I am not discouraged. I did really well the first week and am proud of myself.
I dodged a HUGE peanut butter and jelly bomb thrown at me (with the help of my good friend Kelly, who is also doing IP) I was on the verge of cracking for sure. Only I didn't. I didn't cheat once.....
My first cheat came two days ago. I had an 8 oz glass of wine. It was delicious. I only felt guilty a little.
This morning, I had creamer in my coffee. Butter pecan. It's Mother's Day. I'm a great mother. I deserved it. I had two pieces of bacon too.
I stayed on track the entire rest of the day.
I thoroughly enjoy the chocolate soy puffs. I'm convinced that they are the only thing keeping me alive through all of this. I also like the bbq soy crisps.
I can't wait to see what Thursday's weigh in will be! I have to admit, this week was better. It IS getting easier. I don't crave so much, though I would like some things, I don't have that kill-somebody feeling. I look in the mirror, and swear I can actually see the loss. My stomach, which normally looks like it's carrying a small child, is looking a bit flatter, and wigglier. Which is giving me a small glimpse of how much loose skin will be flapping in the wind once I lose the weight.
Oh well.
I'm doing this anyway.
Thanks for listening.... I'll let you know how the next weigh in goes :)
