Still on Track

I stuck to the program most of the week. Saturday and Sunday I just didn't feel like eating. Weird?? I know. I haven't gone back to the gym yet, but have been doing a lot around the house and have been feeling better. I'm planning on going back after July 4.

The results...HW 317, PSW 306.4, SW 284, CW 270.2

It's Working

One week down on Medifast. Since I don't eat a lot of calories, any bit of effort completely wears me out. I did great and hope it continues.

And the results are....HW 317, PSW 306.4, SW 284, CW 272.2

And that's after I got my period halfway through the week. AMAZING!!

Reflection

So it's been just over a year since I started this blog. As you know, the past few months, I have not been very active here because of my complete disappointment and discouragement. Ultimately, I do not regret having the surgery. I think the restriction on how much I can eat will be beneficial throughout my life because once I get started, I have a hard time stopping. I do not go for my visits with the surgeon anymore and probably won't again unless I absolutely have to. The friend/client that did so well on Medifast is now a coach for their company. I have decided to go back and try it again. It worked the first time and I'm already used to eating less and 6 times a day. I started on Monday and have had fabulous results since. I'm not sure why I wasn't given more guidance the first time around, but her little tips have kept me interested and not hungry. On their website, you can track your meals, calories, weight loss and exercise and so far, I've been diligent with it. I have asked her to keep tabs on me and she has texted everyday. Even though I have been keeping up with my exercise, I'm supposed to reduce it by half for the first weeks while on this program. Of course, I figured since I was already eating reduced calories and my body was used to it, that rule would not apply to me. Well, last night I mowed my lawn and could have easily gone to bed at 8 pm. I guess it is affecting me. I can't do the gym tonight because I forgot an extra meal and there is no way I can go so many hours AND workout without eating. I will remember tomorrow to pack it.

So, I will admit where I'm at and will begin to track things again here: HW 317, PSW 306.4, SW 284, CW (as of Monday when I started Medifast) 279.8
