Holy Cow!
So I am a MyFitnessPal.com convert. It makes it so easy to track your calories, and exercise. I don't consider this a diet, because there are no restrictions, but it does help to make the right decisions. I have been eating between 1250-1500 calories a day and I am not depriving myself of anything! So I will continue my diary there, which you can view at http://www.myfitnesspal.com/food/diary/otm25?date=2011-02-14 and http://www.myfitnesspal.com/food/diary/otm25?date=2011-02-15.

So the big news is I weighed in today. I could not believe my eyes when it said I had lost 4 lbs!!!
I was questioning whether this was working or not, and was talking to my husband "J" about it last night. I told him that I would be really disappointed if I had lost less than one pound. He told me not to be discouraged and that one week I may lose very little and make up for it the next week. I am fully prepared for that next week. But I thought I was noticing my jeans feeling a little loose, just thought I might be wishful thinking! So happy to see results so quickly!

So here I am, 173.9 ready to take on the next week. If only I wasn't starting it with two little sick kids! Wish me luck!
