The Weigh In - Week 1

Well lets start with my progress, drum roll please!

I weighed in this morning at 205.2!  Yay!  I was hoping to lose 1 lb a week and I lost 3 this week :-)  They always say it comes off faster though the fatter you are and the earlier in the diet.

How did I do this week on my diet and exercise?

Well, this was a crazy week, which I plan to blog about later.  My 14 month old was very sick and my husband had the flu.  My daughter refused to sleep unless I was holding her.  So, basically I went 48 hours with a few cat naps here and there.  Since I was so tired there certainly was no exercising or eating.  Honestly the not really eating is probably why I lost so much weight this week.  I did cheat on my diet this week.  One was the accepted to cheat of having pancakes one morning.  But I bought ice cream too.  Which is strange because ice cream isn't even a guilty pleasure of mine, but I do love Ben N Jerry's!

So, the sad thing is that I failed in a lot of regards this week.  I didn't exercise, and my eating wasn't really up to par.  But, I didn't drink any sugary soda's, no matter how tired I got. 

Well, at least I lost some weight this week, lol.  Oh, and now I have the flu, so maybe I'll lose even more due to lack of eating!

Wish me luck this week.  I hope to get back on the exercise horse as soon as the flu is over.  At least the not eating is helping to make my meal portions smaller!
