Im so happy to have made it to my 8th day! I have lost 10lbs in the first week, with exercise and closely watching my carbs and also with lots of water. I even started walking to class rather than driving. The days when I didnt want to do my workout tapes I just put them in anyway and started because I know that once I start something I HAVE to finish. I did measurements and all that the night before I started back to LCing, and I did the measurements again last night......said I would do these every Thursday, and I was surprised to see that none of my measurements have changed although people say I look different So I dont know how I have lost yet....maybe Im not doing the measurements right......any suggestions? My clothes are fitting alot different though...so I really dont know about those measurements.
Im going home for the weekend today, and Ive been plannin on what to do to avoid the careless attitude and falling off because I know how hard it is for me to get started. I have started planning menu's and also getting into to the thinking that when I get hungry to run straight for my LC foods. Ive made it this far and the cravings arnt as bad so I know I can make it through the weekend.....and thanks to everyone for your support and ideas about staying LC even while traveling......I will still be LC when I get back and hopefully will have lost even more.

thats a brilliant start!!
keep up the good work

8 days and you are already stressing.... oh gosh.

You are doing great and making good choices and others can see a difference in your weight distribution already. This is amazing.

Relax, this is a slow and healthy process and you will get to your goals when your body lets you.

All the best.

yes I know I have to remember to be patient patient patient.....all is good so far, and its getting so much easier!

Good girl... now step away from the scale and learn to enjoy eating again!
