Default Day 1...

So far so good! I actually dragged myself out of bed this morning to hit the gym extra early before work. Oatmeal for breakfast, a big salad for lunch with spinach leaves, zucchini, tomatoes with fat-free feta and fat-free salsa instead of dressing. Snacked on some celery. Husband already has veggie soup on the stove for when I get home.

I'm hoping this is a good sign, and I know it's only Day 1 but I don't really feel like I'm in the mind-set of "I'm on a diet" or "I'm trying to lose weight"...I just really have myself believing this is the way my life will be from now on and I actually feel EXCITED by that thought. I'm sure after a few days I will be missing my Milano cookies desperately but this time just feels much different than all of the other countless times I have given this a go.

Think good thoughts for me please, I need all the good karma I can get :-)

I love that excitement

It comes and goes, so when it's gone - just remember how good you feel right now hehe. Best of luck!

Good luck! I'm in week one as well and it's not too hard so far. I've spent a LOT on food though... I threw away almost everything that I had except some progresso low cal soups and cheerios lol. I just hope that since I'm pretty well stocked on healthy foods now, my grocery list will be a bit shorter next week!

Whiskey I did the exact same thing! I think my grocery bill was like $100 this week! Thank goodness i was already stocked up on ground turkey and chicken breasts or it would've been worse! Getting rid of all the junk DEFINATELY helps!!
