Phase 1, day 6 -- down 5pds!!!

I'm so thrilled. The last 6 days have been so easy. We even ate out Saturday and Sunday night. I can feel a difference in the way my clothes are fitting and I'm down atleast 5 pds. I can't say exactly. Since my weight was a bit over 200 I would never just stand on the scale. If I stand on it slowly, keeping my hand on the sink, I could keep the needle below 200. I think in reality I was more around 203 - 205. Well, this morning, I did my usual careful attempt at stepping on the scale andit was at 193! So, I just stood on it like a normal (I guess skinny) person and it was 195! I did that about 6 times in differnet places on the bathroom floor and it kept saying 195! I guess my scale is consistent if I just stand on it :)

Just had to share. Now I wish I was honest enough with myself to know my true starting point. I guess I'll stick with 200, so I'm down 5. I kind of figured I was doing well since last night, laying in bed, I felt my hip bones! Boy, since I haven't felt those puppies since before I was pregnant - my daugher just turned 1.

OK, I'm done being a goof, I'll go back to work.
