I weighed myself this morning, and I've lost 4.5 pounds. I went from 246.5 to 242.
I didn't prepare for this to work.
See, I'm used to diets/exercise programs that don't work so well. That's part of why I give up so easily. Also, I was TERRIFIED that I had somehow broken myself, and that there was simply no way to lose weight. That I was stuck like this.
I'm not.
That's cool. . .and terrifying.
I'll get over it.
Other than that, I'm seeing a steady decrease of my blood sugar and overall insulin usage which is GOOD. I've halved one of my blood pressure medications (don't try that w/o talking to your doc) b/c I was getting dizzy in the mornings doing yoga. I'm also seeing a steady increase in my flexibility and energy. I'm still not up for doing a can-can in the middle of the floor, but I'm getting there.
So, my goal for this week is to keep doing what I've been doing, and add an afternoon walk to my routine.
Week one is over, and I'm calling it a win.
