Ok, I'm a few days behind on staying in touch, so here I am.
Starting Weight (January 18th, 2016): 261 lbs
Current Weight (as of January 25th): 257.3 lbs
Total Loss: 3.7 lbs
Last week went really well. There were a few days where I sat here going, "OH MY GOD, I WANT TO EAT LIKE SHIIIIIIT!!!" However, I overcame those urges and realistically only had one bad night (we had pizza, which isn't horrible if you eat it in moderation, but I did NOT do so that night). I did the Wii Fit every day and as the days progressed I could feel myself improving on my exercises - not by a ton, but enough to notice a difference was starting to happen.
This week I plan on following the same guidelines with one minor change - I am cutting back on carbs. I'm not doing a low-carb diet, nor am I completely eliminating them from my diet, I am just going to be smarter with how many carbs I eat. Last week I ate a sandwich almost every day for lunch and for dinner, at least a few times, I had a bigger amount of carbs than I should've (subs, pasta, etc). I'm not saying I did bad last week, because I don't think I did - I'm just saying I could've done BETTER. So, I'm cutting back on carbs a bit this week and, although it's only Wednesday, I can already feel a difference. My body isn't as sluggish, some of the aches in my joints are diminishing and my head doesn't feel as headachey - yes, that's a word - headachey.
Alright, that's it for now. I have the day off work today so, after my workout, I plan on straightening out the kitchen cupboards and the refrigerator. They're so unorganized and it's driving me NUTS!!!
