TWO DOWN THIS WEEK!
Friday, May 23rd 2008
I cannot believe it. I lost two pounds this week. I got a lot of exercise in this week. I worked 5, 12 hour days at work and that is my exercise. I drank 20 extra ozs of water a day, which I think helped. I am just so excited. I only have 29 more pounds to go.

Well, it's Friday! I lost one pound this week. I feel kind of disappointed, but then again the goal is only to lose 1-2 pounds a week, so I am on the right track. My clothes feel looser, and that is great. Since I lost three pounds last week, my calorie intake dropped from the 1700's to the 1600's, I wonder what one pound will drop it too.On the local news channel this morning, they discussed how fad diets are unhealthy and usually fail, and how nutritionist recommend watching your calori...
