One Month Down :D

[alinnell]

WTG Jay (and everyone else)!

I've kind of lost count as to where I am...I'm thinking 4 weeks will be up on Thursday morning (or will that be 5 weeks??). Anyway, down 10.5 as of this morning, so I can't complain!

Well, I'm one month down today and so far I'm holding steady at 10.5 pounds lost. I haven't lost anything this week and I'm not sure why, although I tend to lose more on the weekends for some strange reason.

But I'm still happy with 10.5 off! Lets hope for another 10 this month!

I sure feel the difference. Walking is easier. I feel a bit more energetic. My appetite is mostly gone, but I'm debating if this is a good thing. Some days it's really damn hard to make myself eat!
I'll start exercising now. Dusted off my kettle bell. I think it will be perfect. Cardio and weight training all in one. Of course, I expect to not be able to do too much at once, but I do like to slap on the head phones, blast my Pandora stations and dance, so it's all good. I also expect the weight loss to slow a bit, but if it's steady, yay! I mean, I can't expect to drop over 20 lbs. a month every month, lol. (Although, that would rock )

If u like 2 dance, try Zumba! It is a fantastic, fat-burning dance party! I took my first class last night, and man, what a fun, high energy, motivational workout! Plus u can buy the sexy coin skirts that shake and shimmy w/ every twist of your hips for a minuscle $12 (at least in VA!)
Give it a try -- it's an awesome way to destress, unwind, whittle the waist, and act like a complete freakin' idiot w/ others doing the same thing and loving it!!!! Our class is mostly 30+ women and we really let it all hang loose! Awesome fun!!! Best wishes for continued success!

Hey! Give hubby these stats: In 10 weeks on Medifast, I lost 52 pounds! Also, bp and cholesterol at healthy levels now -- big savings on meds! This plan works if you follow it to a T, read Dr. A's Habits of Health book, and drink as much water as you can hold! My main exercise thus far has been moderately paced walking my large lab/small pony. Good luck to you, and I hope my results will help convert hubby! I find the price of the meals to be reasonable when I know in the long run I will save money on (lack of) meds, and eventually a lower health insurance rate. Not to mention, how can you put a price on better self-esteem / self-confidence, and attaining a longer, healthier, happier life? Best wishes....I believe in you!
