It's been a week since I started recording on fitday.com and I have lost 4 lbs in that time. Not bad! Even with eating out on Friday night and having birthday cake on Saturday, I still stayed under 1300 calories both days. A little moderation goes a long way! It does feel good to be able to stay on track and make thought-out decisions concerning my eating. I can splurge a little and still be within appropriate bounds. I can eat one hershey kiss and have a taste of chocolate. But I don't have to eat the whole bag. I'm learning to recognize when I need to spend time with my husband instead of eat. I'm a comfort food eater. But I'm getting better.
In the week that I've been recording on fitday.com, I have exercised 5 of the 7 days. That makes me feel good. Both emotionally and physically. I feel better. And because I've been eating less, it takes less to fill me up and I feel satisfied.
I still have 8 lbs to lose before I am to my pre-Ellie weight. But I am making progress and that is comforting and encouraging.
