Today is a bummer because I’m up a pound. That just sucks. I’ll be incredibly strict today, measuring portion sizes, etc.
My doctor says I shouldn’t go by the scale, but by the way my clothes fit…whatever!! I want that scale number to go down. I’ll also run on the treadmill today so that hopefully whatever is “stuck” will kick start my metabolism again.
Sad :(

And....she's back.
Sorry I’m the world’s worst blogger…I just can’t get it together to get a daily entry out. Anyway, thank you for the responses I’ve gotten…they mean a lot and I didn’t want anyone to think I was completely disregarding them.
This past Saturday (2-14-09), I went in for my weekly weigh-in/appt. I was the star patient this week as I lost 6.5 pounds in six days. I turned in a food diary and the only thing they told me was that I couldn’t eat oranges (didn’t know that and I eat them every day!). However, it didn’t seem to make that much of a difference considering I still lost. I wish I could say I did something differently from the other weeks (typically, my average week is 3-4.5 lbs lost), but I haven’t changed anything at all.
My typical day is: breakfast= protein shake / midmorning= egg whites with onions/tomatoes / lunch=hamburger patty w/ Walden Farms dressing / midday= protein shake / dinner- salmon and steamed veggies.
Also, if I’m being honest, I’m not as strict on the weekends as I am during the week. I’ve been known to steal a fry or two from my son’s plate. :) I’m sure I could be losing a lot more and a lot faster…but I’m perfectly happy with the pace and the amount lost (27 lbs since January 5). If I had a time limit, I’d just buckle down and work out daily. I’m sure that would do it. As it stands now, my clothes are all very loose on me and I feel wonderful. I’m happy and my pace is just fine with me.
