Week 1 is almost in the bag and I've been very pleased with my self-control this week. I think this journal is helping keep my motivation up. Not to mention all the awesome encouragement I'm getting from you guys. (Thank you!) Total lost so far is 7.4 lbs. Tomorrow is my official weigh-in day and I'm looking forward to it.
I just got back from shopping for new workout clothes. I had been holding off working out until I got some decent shoes so I don't kill my feet or injure my knees. I spent about $200 on a really good pair of Nike shoes and a few pairs of shorts & shirts. The current plan is to walk about 3-4 miles a day. The weather's not looking good for tomorrow, however, and I'll be either driving or recording all day Tuesday. So I think Wednesday will be my first day to start.
With yesterday being our "Cheat Day," Lesli and I each had a small 3-5 point snack during the day until we went to our favorite Mexican restaurant. As my daily target is 37 points, I still don't think I went over on points. If I did, I barely put a dent on my Flex Points. (You get 35 Flex Points per week to use any day you like.)
Lesli and I went grocery shopping this morning and almost cleaned out the frozen food section of all the SmartOnes dinners. (Financial tip: Buy stock in Heinz - the makers of SmartOnes.) We were really expecting our grocery bill to be much more expensive than our usual $90-$100/wk. However, it was almost exactly the same amount as we usually buy. AND for every $2 we spend on a SmartOnes, we're probably saving about $3-$5 on fast food.
