Diet Week 3: Feeling Like a TREADMILLIONAIRE

Official weigh-in this morning revealed that I have lost 6 lbs. in the past 3 weeks! That is a smooth and steady 2 lbs. a week, which is exactly my goal. I feel really confident! The past few days I have been feeling shit-tay and getting up this morning and going to the gym really made my day. I guess even if other things in my life are out of control right now at least I feel like this is one thing I am in control of. I feel like I have been working for it, even though sometimes it feels easy... I actually love healthy foods.

I am thinking a lot about the long-term these days. I guess I realized that I actually made this decision a while ago. Though I got out of the habit of exercising as regularly, since I initially lost weight about 1.5 years ago I haven't gotten back there. I decided to start this plan before I got there. So this time, I am dieting and working out with a 10 lb. lead on the last time I had to diet.

I should probably be clear about how I feel about the term "diet." I think of it as generally the food you eat every day, but I have been using it as of late in the way it sounds= I am trying to lose weight. I am trying to be healthier.

I do think the way I am eating is a sustainable everyday diet for me, I am not on any sort of crash mess. I am eating food I enjoy, just a lot less than I used too.

Anyways, I just wanted to check in, as I have been sort of doing that once a week.

Thanks for reading!
