Yesterday marked the end of my second week on the Perfect 10 diet. I am still chugging along and I'm happy to report an additional 2 pound weight loss for a two week total of 8 pounds!
Is it a little sad that I was disappointed with the 2 pound loss? Two pounds in one week is a perfectly respectable weight loss. Especially when you add in the fact that I have yet to begin an exercise program.
And the fact that I ate a 6 inch sub from Subway this week.
And a piece of pound cake.
Hey, a girl's gotta live, right?!?!?
So, considering those two cheats, I did well!
I have one more week in phase one and then I'll move to phase two, which allows for some whole grains. Since I have a real weakness for bread, this should be a huge help in the area of satisfaction.
For the most part, my food cravings are minimal and I am very satisfied with the foods I am eating. It's weird not to crave carbs constantly.
And I could really tell the difference in my cravings after I ate the Subway bread and the cake....
But the important thing is that I didn't cave in. I immediately put those cravings in check and managed them.
Whew....
In other news, I had a wonderful Mother's Day. I got a new look from my 'Future Paul Mitchell Professional' daughter: a cut, highlights, and a little splash of color......PINK! Now you're dying to see a photo, I bet!
Hmmmm.......
Maybe....
If you're not going to post the photo you could at least email it to me! Geesh! I can't believe I have to ask! LOL
ReplyDeleteMaybe I should try that diet. I really need to lose a few but I have NO drive to do it.
I've never heard of the Perfect 10 Diet before. I'm going to read more about it! Congratulations on your 2 pounds!!
ReplyDeleteThat is so great!!! I'm really happy for your weight loss!!!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on week 2. I am still debating starting it...the lack of caffeine may well stop me from trying!
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to see the picture...looking forward to seeing the pink hair!
Great job on your loss this week! 2 pounds in an excellent amount taking into considerations that you are still treating your self and that you are not exercising. Which is perfectly fine because there is nothing wrong with a little treat now and again and we all have to start some where. Exercising is hard because it's not something that you make adaptations of what you are already doing like eating, it's something you have to make time for. It's hard!
ReplyDeleteKeep up the great work!
