So I stepped on the scale this morning...
And I was surprised.
I had dropped another pound.
I am down now 15.5 pounds.
Only 74 more pounds to go. I have lost 15.5 pounds in 30 days. That's .52 pounds per day.
I can live with that.
I think more will come off this summer. Since I will probably be out in the yard a lot more. I haven't been out there as much as I would like because of the rain. I haven't gone walking as much either for the same reason. So there are some increases in activity is in my future. Which will surely assist in the weight loss.
What I observations I have after a month is...
- My clothes aren't so tight. I don't have to do the Jean Stretch out when I put them on.
- My grocery bills are about 25% of what they had been.
- I'm spending less time in the kitchen... and so are the dogs. All 3 dogs have had their servings reduced as well. And they are doing quite well. Lucy is Trimming up. Foster is eating more often when he's supposed to. Dollie is working on getting a few pounds off as well.
- My energy level is picking up on it's own as well.
What I would like to do in the near future is ... remove bread and sugar out of my diet. It will just take a little more planning with a smidgen of will-power. I've done it before... and I truly believe I can do it again.
