Weigh-In For Week 2

Drum roll please... 246.8! Yay!!! I am down 4.4 pounds from my last weigh-in which is not quite 8 pounds from the time I started this blog, and is over 19 pounds from my highest weight. This also means that I now have less than 100 pounds to lose until I reach my goal. I am so happy about this downward trend! Well, truthfully it makes me a tiny bit nervous to think about how my motivation make be shaken when I am out of the just-starting-out plunges, not to mention when I eventually hit a plateau, but for now I am really enjoying my progress.

I am so happy to be out of the 250's - and firmly, at that. I know that my body is loving the mostly healthy foods I've been eating as I have had a lot more energy lately. One of the keys for me so far has been not allowing myself the opportunity to get super hungry. Lots of little meals throughout the day, and especially grabbing some fruit right after I wake up, has been setting me up to avoid cravings which (so far) has been working really well.
