Well, it's been four weeks. I actually never thought I'd make it this far. At first I had to take one meal at a time and not even think about how long I had to be on this diet - if I thought too hard about it, I went into despair! Then it got to where I could think "Ok, I can make it another week." Now I think I am settled in for good.
After four weeks I've lost 20 pounds. I feel GREAT! I have WAY more energy than I ever did. Instead of feeling tired and worn out after I eat, I actually feel really energetic. I've gone down a whole clothing size and had to buy new undies because - well, wearing undies that are too big is just downright uncomfortable! I've had comments from many friends and co-workers that I look great, I'm slimming down, I look years younger, etc.
I am fortunate enough to work with people who are absolutely great and very supportive and encouraging. Not once have I gotten any negative remarks or people trying to give me sweets or doing anything to discourage me. That helps a lot!
Just wanted to report in after the initial four weeks! Thanks all for being there!:party1:
