Day 7- First official weigh in

Well, this morning was disappointing.  I didn't loose any weight, but my period started and so maybe tomorrow will be a bigger loss. All said and told though, I've lost 5.9 pounds in a week and 11 inches all over my body!

I had another stressful day at work and I need to create strategies to help with that because being stressed will make it harder for me to loose.  I'm going to get a few more calming teas, even though I have lots of tea at home, I'm drank all of them at least once and many more than once and I'm bored.

I went to a community dinner tonight and was tested. I ate ahead of time so I was full and did see that I could eat the salad but I'm seeing such success and I want to learn how not to snack so I ended up just having water. That was fine until I really started smelling the food and then I really started wanting some of the bread.  I was able to keep from eating it and was glad when it was time for my drops because I'm not sure I would have been able to fend of the smells much longer.

I'm home now and relaxing with a cup of chai. I might need to see if I can find a chocolate tea of some kind because my brain is telling me that I miss chocolate.  

Tomorrow is shopping day and so I've planned a menu for next week and look forward to my exciting trip to whole foods.
