Week Two


I just finished my second week of the "Trust Plan" and we did the weekly weigh in and measurements. I was feeling fairly down last week because I want to see more results more quickly, even though I did pretty well the first week. So I hopped on the scale (thougth this pic was appropriate) and i lost 2 more pounds! So total I have lost 5 pounds in two weeks. We took my measurements and overall I have lost 5 3/4 inches total from my body, 3 1/4 ( I think) this week! I am very excited and happy about this but it's still difficult sometimes because I feel like I'm working so hard and should be seeing more drastic results. I know that losing 1-2 pounds a week is a good, steady rate but it's just hard when I want to be seeing more results. It was good over the weekend when my mom asked me if I was losing weight. I also feel better and am craving better food, like fruits and veggies. I still crave some of the crappy food but only indulge occasionally with very careful portion control. Two more weeks I have left that I am completely under Dan's control on this plan, then I must decide if I will continue with him and submitting to rules and regulations or if I will venture out on my own. I'm not sure I'm ready for that yet but we'll see.
