End of Week 1

GOSH! I'm horribly at self-control. I did good the first part of the week and then failed the 2nd part. But time to get back on TRACK!

So it's the end of week one. Here are my new measurements.

Weight: 237#
Biceps: 16in
Ribs: 43.5 in
Bust: 47 in
Waist: 43.5 in
Hips: 53 in
Thighs 27.9 in

Total lost: 3# & 5in

Not bad for being HORRIBLE on the 2nd part of the week.

And I did not know until this week that B vitamins will turn your urine highlighter yellow. The More You Know. *cue music*

Derailed

I got off track, but I started back on the 21st. All the measurements are the same. My weigh-ins are on Fridays. I have trouble staying off the scale though. It looks nice so far. I've been Vlogging on Youtube too. I think there is just too much pressure on getting subscribers. I'm here to lose weight and taking back the life that I've been missing out on.

I tried a recipe for Cantaloupe Soup. It was pretty tasty, but it was more of a smoothie than a soup.
Pretty simple. 1 cantaloupe + 2cups of OJ in a blender. then add cinnamon and a tablespoon of lime juice. I used a ice cream scoop to hollow out my cantaloupe rather than cutting because I love cantaloupe juice and it would reduce the amount that I would just be wasting on my cutting board. I personally would cut down on the amount of OJ, because it's a bit more sour than I would ideally like it to be.

Here is my food journal for the past couple of days.

I think I've done pretty well. Speghettios aren't exactly diet food, but I'm not going for a short term diet. I want to change my life! And I have to keep the foods I like to have in order to keep it long term. Moderation and Hydration are key.
