I've scored weight loss!

Well, don't get too excited. I have lost 2 lbs. But considering I am also building muscle (that we all know weighs more), I am doing pretty darn good.

I think the hardest thing for me is all the planning, all the recording what I ate, the workouts, the weight I lifted, etc. Besides the fact that I feel like a pack mule by the time I load up the three meals I eat while I am at work. I am missing the sweets but looking forward to my "free" day on Saturday. On "Body for Life" you get one free day a week where you eat what you want. It is suppose to keep your body off balance and keep it from going into starvation mode. I plan to keep using my Form so that even if I eat what sounds good, I don't stuff myself.

I forgot my Form yesterday and had to go it "alone" for lunch. It was harder to quit eating and leave good on my plate. I am starting to realize that my "I'm full" message is broken or at least slow. I am taking the Form earlier before a meal now, and I think it is even working better.

Change is hard and changing habits is one of the hardest. But I am still in this "marathon" even if I am bringing up the rear!
