I have to admit I'm a bit shocked with this one! Don't get me wrong, I'm thrilled with the result, just trying to figure out where it came from. I suppose I might have been retaining a little water last week when I only lost 2 pounds, but this is still a little out there.It was another good week, I did an outstanding job with my eating plan again. I'm amazed at how much easier it is to stay strong when your mind is focused. Even with such a lousy work week, I was able to resist the temptations.
This also takes me to the halfway point of my first 12 week stint. When I first started I told myself that I wasn't going to set crazy or unrealistic goals like I usually do. I told my wife that my "not-really-a-goal-but-sure-would-be-cool" target would be to get under 300 by the end of 3 months. Halfway there, and I'm amazed that I might actually have a shot. This is going to be the best non-goal I ever had the privilege of not shooting for!
Highlights:
- Sticking to eating plan - Rock solid
- Drinking a gallon of water every day
- Feeling great; Resisting Temptations
Lowlights:
- Only exercised once during the work week
- Didn't keep up with blogging this week
- STRESS at work!
On Friday Ice Cream was being sold as part of a United Way campaign. My boss agreed to buy ice cream for anyone in my group, as much as we wanted, on his dime. I love ice cream but I want to lose this weight more than I ever have before, so I passed (Small Victory #20).
I am truly enjoying how my life is going right now! One of my daughters just told me that she's so glad we moved. Clearly my whole family is settling in and I feel like I'm just starting to hit my stride. I'm excited to be finally taking control of my life. The journey is long, and the road is tough, but I know I'm ready for it. 6 weeks in the books, time to focus on week #7. If I want to lose 20 pounds in the next 6 weeks and get under 300 I'm going to have to step up that exercise!
