Week 1 Update

Well, week 1 has come and gone.  It's been sort of a slow week progress-wise.  I backslid Friday and Saturday.  Despite the backsliding though, I lost 2 pounds last week.

I have had 0 Cokes (THAT has been tough!).  I did have a diet Sprite on Tuesday. Doing just okay in the water-drinking department...mostly it's been iced tea, green tea and coffee.  Need to step up the water drinking more.  

Eating-wise, I am not counting calories.  What I am conscious of is portion sizes and making better choices in what I do eat.  I haven't had one bite of fast food in the last week.  Wait, I take that back...on Saturday I had my normal breakfast at McDonald's with my sister.  But I made better choices...instead of a sausage biscuit, I had an Egg McMuffin, but without the cheese and Canadian bacon.  Skipped the apple pie and the soda, and had the usual coffee with the sandwich.

I worked late 2 nights in a row last week and so I did not get to the gym for yoga classes.  Will try and do better this week.

Since I have a lot of weight to lose, I'm going to approach it in 10-pound increments.  Each 10-pound loss will be a celebration!

Onward!
