Plugging along

I know I haven't written in a few weeks.  I am still going strong drinking 2 green smoothies a day.  It has helped me tremendously in my calorie counting and curbing my sweet tooth at 3pm.   Two weeks ago I finally stepped on the scale and it was 7lbs lighter then when I stepped on it 6 months ago.  A week later I stepped back on the scale and had lost 3lbs.  I was shocked to say the least.  I have plugged on this week hoping that I would be able to pull off a 1lb weight loss. I attribute my 3lb weight loss to menstrual cycle.  But I'll take it.  I have kept close track of my calories consumed, and calories burned at myfitnesspal.com. I love this site.  It's super easy to use.  I have worked out every day this week and plan on working out extra hard tomorrow.

I don't struggle so much on the weekends as I use to.  I want so badly to shed lbs to gain a healthier body.  I give in a little more on the weekends just so I don't get out of control during the week.  I'll let you know how that is working out for me.  If I don't start losing weight, I'm going to have to start getting strict on the weekends as well, which I hope doesn't have to happen.  I want to be able to make changes that can be permanent and stay with me for the rest of my life. I realize that I might have to be a bit more strict with myself to lose weight, but I hope what I am doing shows some results.  Losing weight is numbers in and numbers out, right?

I am stepping on the scale tomorrow morning.  With that in mind, I am going to be extra careful tonight.  I have an awards banquet to attend.  I have just 6-700 calories left today.  I can do this.
