It's been exactly 4 weeks since I've started this new diet and I've lost 9.6 lbs! HOOORAY!!! It's been quite an interesting journey from testing out what foods I like, figuring out what days to work out and keeping a positive outlook on the days that the scale didn't show a change. Rocco and Tricia have been such amazing supporters. Thankfully Rocco decided to join me on this crazy little adventure. I'm super proud of him cause he's lost about 20 lbs also. Without him I wouldn't have the yummy food I get to eat and the hugs that reassure me that I'm doing well and its ok if I'm not losing weight as fast as him. Tricia has been my cheerleader. Everyday she asks my progress and its awesome to share it with her. We've always been health buddies. It's because of her that I did a 5K! It's because of her that I do this for me!
I look back wondering why I struggled so hard to lose weight but I realize you definitely have to prepare yourself. Yes there were times we cheated I'm not going to lie, but you know what? Tomorrow is a new day. You gotta stay positive and keep striving towards your goal. A change in diet can be a HUGE change and I'm proof of that. Instead of eating the things I love that are fatty everyday, I have it once a week on my cheat day. So those cravings definitely go away. But if you want something that's not part of the diet, don't stress yourself out it's all about portions. If you want a piece of chocolate instead of eating a whole candy bar allow yourself to have a small nugget. Looking forward to what's to come in this next month!
