When I started this I took pictures on the first and decided that I would take pictures every two weeks to track my progress. I don't really feel any thinner and I don't know how much weight I've lost (I quit weighing myself). I took pictures this morning though and have them on my computer. I was comparing them to the first pictures and I can actually see a difference. It's not a major one, but I can see it most in my arms and legs. I can see a little difference in the side view of my stomach, but not really the front view. I'm happy that I can see something changing though. It's motivation to keep going, because in another two weeks, I should see an even bigger difference.
Yesterday was my off day in exercise. I almost did a workout, but I figured they probably allow you an off day for a reason. I also used it as my cheat day for food. Today I'm back on it though and am eating healthy and the way I should. When our work had that nutritionist come in, he said that people are more likely to eat healthy most of the time if they allow themselves to indulge every once in awhile. He said you should eat healthy 90% of the time and allow yourself one cheat every week. That doesn't mean you should stuff your face. Just that you could eat those tacos for dinner or fettucini alfredo (my favorite) and still be OK as long as you are eating good the rest of the time. Plus you are less likely to binge if you allow yourself a treat every now and then.
I'm looking forward to the next two weeks and seeing what change will be in my next set of pictures. Next weekend I have a girls night and we are going to the Iron Wok. They have some of the best fried rice. You can bet that will be my cheat day and I plan on completely enjoying it.
