week 2 diet update and results.

week of March 12:

goal: 28.8 lbs

lbs lost this week: +1 (yes...that's PLUS!!!)
total lbs lost: 4.2
lbs to goal: 24.6

i blame my period. it's starting as we speak.

disappointing.

i start working out this coming week so hopefully that will help.

i think after last week's great success, i got a little cocky. i just followed the rules and five pounds fell off. so then... i think this week, with the combination of confidence and womanly cycle-induced cravings, i was not as strict as last week. i ate good for the most part, but got a little carried away with the sweets. and yeah, i'm retaining water.

so anyway... that's this week's story. not nearly as wonderful and cheery as last week. but i'm still on the bandwagon. had rice cakes, a veggie sandwich, string cheese and a pickle for lunch. learned that my favorite dreyers all-fruit popsicles are only 2 points. will start working out. next week better be better, or i'm gonna be real pissed. real, real pissed.
