Weigh In Friday!

Quite frankly, lately I have been up and down about weighing in but this week I kicked some ass!  I lost 3.4 pounds smile I could have even lost more by now because I weighed in early, because you know, I just felt… lighter, lol.  I wish I could say that it was all that exercise but nope - it was better food choices.  I really made a very conscious effort to watch everything I ate.  I worked very hard at my portion control and not snacking mindlessly.  I did walk 2 days but it wasn’t anything to write home about… about 30 minutes each time.  But I felt good that I made that effort as well as constantly checking my food intake.  I ate home this week all except one day which I’m sure made a huge difference as well. 

My water intake is something to be desired though - normally I’m a 6 bottle a day water drinker but I admit to doing something I haven’t done regularly in 3 years plus… I bought a bottle of soda this week, and I drank it.  The whole thing.  A couple of months ago I had a soda at my friend Millie’s house (yes Millie - I’m talking about you and your diet coke, lol) and I just couldn’t stop thinking about.  Occasionally I would get a soda while going out rather than getting unsweetened ice tea which I normally do.  Then it became a little more than occasionally - like a soda every 2 weeks.  Now I actually bought a bottle.  I’m doomed! OMG when you stop drinking soda so long you forget how wonderful it tastes - the bubbly fizz, the super taste, and just the thrill of seeing it in my refrigerator made me realize that just like an alcoholic can’t have just one drink, I can’t drink even one soda. 

So, I’m going back to sodas anonymous and giving it up yet again.  Granted I surely am not as bad as I used to be I can feel the need to get more soda than before, and that is pretty scary.  So, I’m officially committing to all of you that I will not even drink one soda - not even at Millie’s house smile

So, enough about me… how did you all do this week?  I predict big weight losses - so c’mon and tell me how you did already!!
