Weigh In Wednesday!

Another Weigh in Wednesday is here, even though I haven't been posting them most weeks! I have something to write about this week!

At the highest point over Christmas break, I was weighing in at 160. WAYY too high for me. It was because there was a million sweets and goodies for me to eat and my grandma tends to be someone who pushes food from the kitchen, to your plate, to your mouth. Easy way to put on some pounds.

I have been working out regularly since I got back from Christmas break, but there wasn't a lot of success because I was constantly rewarding myself for working out with food like cookies, ice cream and chocolate.

I was also struggling with working at McDonalds and trying to not eat there.

I was averaging a weigh in of about 156 since I started working out.

This week, on Saturday. I started counting my calories before I eat anything on my plate. I figure out exactly how many calories are on my plate, and then I eat until I am full. When I am done I subtract what is still on my plate from my calorie count.

I have also been drinking shakes with the Body by Vi Nutritional Powder in them for 2 meals a day. I am still making sure that I am getting enough calories for my body, but I have found that I am not that hungry until it is time for me to eat again.

I have started eating snacks in between my meals. about 2 1/2 hours after I eat, which has been great.


After doing all of this.
Since Saturday...
I have lost...

Two and a Half Pounds!!
What a great start to this!

I have a lot more motivation to keep going than I did just a few short weeks ago!
