So, yesterday morning I weighed myself and was expecting to be up a pound or whatever cuz I didn't eat too well the day before, but to my surprise, I was actually down a pound. So, that would bring my total weight loss from my "original" weight to 7lbs and I don't think I've been that weight for several months, if not longer. However, when I weighed myself this morning, I had put that pound back on. I probably could have made better food choices yesterday, but I also did about 30 mins of walking/jogging on the treadmill and the 6 minute Shake Weight work out. So, I'm very much hoping some of that weight is muscle or something. lol.

I did another 30 mins of the treadmill this morning and I plan to do 30-45 mins in the evening since I have the day off and don't have anything to do today. I have a salad all lined up for lunch or dinner and a few types of fruit and veggie options for snacks. No carbs today. Hopefully I can lose that pound again, or maybe even one more, if the Gods are on my side. lol

On another note, I've gone a whole month without any pop and I think this may be the longest I've gone along with the trying to eat right and stuff. I mean, I still have my off days, but I'm a lot more consious about what I'm putting into my body and trying to make good choices whenever I can. I'm also doing my best not to get discouraged when I stay the same or even put on a pound. Anyway, I really do hope I can keep this up for a while. I've had next to no "digestive issues" in a couple weeks and that in itself is almost enough to continue this. I hate feeling like shit. No puns. lol

Also, I know that chinese take out can have a lot of fat and whatever, but if you take all the beef and broccoli from various dishes and rinse it off before you eat it, does that get rid of some of the bad calories or is all the fat and sodium kinda cooked in? Just a thought...
