Checking In....

Checking In.....

I'm doing SUPER right now! This week has been great! I've just finished the first week of the South Beach Diet and I feel really good. The only down side is I truly have felt like I was "on a diet". However, I am hoping that when I get on the scale tomorrow it will be worth it.



I've done lots of exercise this week and feel very healthy. We went grocery shopping yesterday and are stocked up for the next week to 10 days full of healthy choices and a great meal plan!



I'll be sure to check in tomorrow and post what the scale says.



Have a super day!

This week.....

Weight-181.8 lbs (down 1.9 lbs this week)
Steps-76,164 this week (thanks to two days of 20K plus---whew)

I'm feeling really good right now. I recenly finished reading "The South Beach Diet" and started it on Sunday with my husband. I feel pretty good about it. It's very close to the YOAD way of life that I've been living but it varies a bit. It's scientific and based on the glycemic index. I'm all about the science so anything that's scientifically based is interesting to me.

I think the fact that my husband really is going to make the effort to make some changes is very important. I need his support and help to stay moving in the right direction. It makes it so much more fun & easier to have support from someone you love! It's so hard to go this alone!!
It'll be nice to help him as much as he'll help me.

I better run....I've been sitting at this computer for a while now. I can't burn any calories at the keyboard.

Talk soon,
