She's Had Her First Mini-Victory

Seeing the scale drop from 160 to 159.9 feels way better than going from 160.1 to 160. It’s a whole different 10’s place! These little victories help build momentum during weight loss. See below as Antoinette describes both her morning and afternoon of her second day of transformation.

August 24, 2010

OK, this morning before eating 159.9.  Cannot tell you what a relief it is to not see that 160 on the scale.  And wondering how it happened with a small bit of cheating and no real exercise.  But I will take what I can get and do better today.  Will walk later – beach or Mission Bay.  Shoulder still too sore for rowing machine or even impact of treadmill.

Off to make a protein shake.  Will pretend it is almond butter and organic strawberry jam on multigrain bread.

(And later that afternoon, she writes…) 

OK.  1:02 p.m. and counting. 

Breakfast was a protein shake. Lunch was a whole roma tomato in bite sized pieces, ¼ sliced cucumber, ½ avocado, some RealSalt, and 2 TBS avocado-cilantro hummus.  It was so good.  The combination of flavors and the crunchy cucumber to replace crackers was perfect. Ate a bit later hoping to stave off that 2:30 p.m. need for sweets.  If needed, will do a half shake at 3:00 p.m.

 

Staying on track.  Could be in part because everything off the menu, except dark chocolate covered pomegranate, is out of the house.
