As I come to the end of week 1 of my weight loss odyssey, I have realized many things. The first is that losing weight was easy if I followed the plan. I did everything that I was supposed to do and was very successful. I lost 4.9 pounds my first week. I am so pleased about this, but understand that a larger weight loss is normal during the first and second week due to losing water weight. Even though that is the case, I'm still excited to share such a great number.
Other successes I experienced this week with relation to my goals include:
1. I only ate out one time and it was at Applebee's. They have a great under 550 calories menu.
2. I only ate in the car twice; both times were during long drives between Los Angeles and San Diego. What I ate though was a nutritional protein bar and carrots. This is nothing like what I used to eat in the car.
3. I ate no fast food this week.
4. I gave up soda and have not looked back.
This week my main goal is to work out more. Last week I worked out once and this week I would at least like to double that.
This is only the beginning, but I'm off to a great start.
