It's been one week since I first started on my new diet program. I've lost two pounds so far. I was hoping for a bigger number, but I'm still pleased with the progress. The name of the game for the future and the lesson I learned this week is to really listen to what my body is saying to me. When I need to eat more, I should eat more. When I've had enough, stop eating. When I'm working out and I'm pushing myself, I need to pay attention to whether or not I've pushed myself too hard. All in all, I'm calling this week an overall success, but I'm ready to get started again with the adjustments I feel I need to make. I'm taking a few days off before I start the 7 week cycle over again, so my next weigh-in will be a week from Monday instead of next Saturday. I also think I have an unreliable scale, so I plan to purchase a new one that will hopefully give me more consistently accurate results. Right now, I'm feeling good about the direction I'm headed in. My biggest challenge has been and will be to remain disciplined and not give into cravings. We'll see how week #2 goes. I want to say thank you to the friends who have commented publicly and written privately showing their support and sharing their stories. Your encouragement really means a lot. Until next weigh-in, over and out.
