Goin' to be around for one more week

Dh and I started this woe two weeks ago today. Now I've been really good. I haven't eaten anything on the NO-NO list, although I did splurge a little too much on the cashews. Well, DH has been anything but a model student. He will eat what ever I cook and I don't keep the bad stuff in the house. It's when he is away things get bad. So last night at the restaurant he wants to try again. I told him I would stay on Ph 1 for one more week, then I'm moving on. If he doesn't really try, then I'll move to Ph 2. (really would like to have some strawberries!!)

I just got the book and found out I made some mistakes on Ph 1 anyway. I had too many "sweet" snacks (ie sf/ff jello pudding). I now know the limit of about 75 calories for dessert. And I should've been eating the gelatin and not the pudding. Plus I'm not really sticking with the 3 meals and 2 snacks routine. Want to focus on that also.

So I discovered why my weight loss hasn't been as dramatic as some. Not sticking 100% to the plan. I have lost 5.4 lbs!! but most importantly.....THere is 3.5 inches less of me in the world!!!!!!!!!! I'm so excited!! :)

So one more week here, than I'll move to the next level!!
