So, as I'm sure you can tell from the title of the blog, I lost some weight this week! (Or maybe you DO think I'm a loser!) I've been very skeptical that eating MORE food could make me lose. So, like a Sumo wrestler, my entire adult life has been spent not eating breakfast, or much of anything else, until evening when I feel totally starved and chow down on not-so-healthy foods.
I now feel like I'm eating constantly! My mind says, "you're eating too much, you need to be "dieting", but Cyd (and Bob from Biggest Loser) says eat often to feed your metabolism. You need to eat to lose. And guess what...apparently it works! So how much did I lose? 3 1/2 lbs.
So, next week during that "time of the month" I'm sure I'll be up, but will I be discouraged? Heck no! I have more energy and feel pretty good, so I know I'm doing something right.
My goals for the week include walking with Christi every morning and doing yoga Tuesday and Friday. I walked and "yoga'd" this morning. Sarah, YOU KICKED MY BUTT! Lets hope I can stick with those goals. Seeing weight-loss really is motivating, but girls, if you start to see me slack, please don't hold back in telling me "what-for". Thanks to all of you for your encouraging words, for the support of the other "Losers", and especially for Martha, my personal coach/meal idea person/friend. Love you guys!
