Hello friends!

You all surprised me with your kind, encouraging words. Thank you!

I've lost two pounds this week with six days of dieting. So...that's two down eighteen pounds to go.

Here's a brief overview of the week in calories and work-outs:

Sunday: 50 minute leg work-out, abs, 2 1/2 bike ride, didn't monitor calories till Monday
Monday- 1,737 calories
Tuesday-1,530 calories, 50 minute back and biceps work-out, abs, 2 1/2 mile bike ride
Wednesday-1,700 calories, eight miles of biking
Thursday-1,535 calories-50 minute chest and triceps work-out, abs 2 1/2 mile bike
Friday-1,720 calories- 4 mile bike ride
Saturday-1,480 calories-

I also worked on drinking more water every day. I may have gotten in at least six glasses.There are some weak spots I need to work on. I'd like to keep closer to the 1,400 calorie range. But I made some positive movements forward. I took out all white flour foods, though I still use sugar and creamer in my coffee. I may have to go to black coffee as this goes on. I think I'm beginning to feel better about myself.

I will probably post on Sundays as it is more challenging for me to get to the library during the week, so I may lose more weight by tomorrow morning as it is not a true seven day week.

Thank you again!

See you next week!
