Week 7 was a very good week. I worked hard, and continued to watch I ate. Last night and last Friday I had pizza, but I was back on track and worked out. Thats what I really want people to know. You don't have to give up all of your favorite foods, have them in moderation, a little at a time, and you will be fine.
The pizza didn't affect my calorie intake too much. I only had 2 slices each time and limited myself to that. I made the choice to only have those 2 and eat/snack light the rest of the day. If you plan out your meals throughout the day, you can control how you eat.
This week I got on a kick of Corn Flakes with a couple of packs of splenda, talk about addicting! 1 cup plus 0% milk is only 240 calories, not bad. I also bought a pack of the Special K Bars Chocolatey Drizzle Bars. Theyre 90 Calories a bar and taste like Rice Crispies treats, very good. Another thing that is great and very low is fresh strawberries. A cup sliced is only 50 calories. Not bad for a scack, and filling (for me anyway)
So this week food wise has been pretty good. I've been pretty good at staying under my calories which is the important thing. Now onto pics and what I've lost
My stomach is getting more toned, I'm happy about that. I will get there eventually, just have patience!
I measured my body fat percentage today and this is where I am 15.7% It puts me in the lean category which is exciting. I want to eventually get into single digits, so I will push myself very hard. It will be worth it in the end. Now onto how much I've lost
Last week I weighed in at 134.9 This week I am 133.9!! an entire pound lost, *does imaginary back flips*
This is the lowest I have been in about a year and a half, so its a huge accomplishment. Im also proud of the fact that I've lost 10+lbs since going on this journey. There were days that I didnt want to work out, or eat sugar but I told myself it wouldn't be good and all of this has paid off.
As far as inches. I don't have a picture but I will say what I measured in last week. I'll just say my waist since that is the part that shows the most progress.
last week I measured in at 27.8" this week I'm 27" so almost an inch, not too bad at all. Very happy with all my numbers
