So today was our weekly weigh in day. Officially John has lost 9.4 lbs in one week. With him, it really was a week of losing. He never gained on the load days, so he lost from day one. I have lost 7.2 lbs which is from 5 days of the diet and losing because I did gain on our load days.
We also took measurements today and John is down 4 1/8 inches from last Wedensday and I am down 6 inches. I have to admit I am alittle upset that although I lost 7.2 lbs and 6 inches I don't see that much difference in the mirror. I mean, yes my clothes are fitting better and I can tell I am slimming down, since I am losing all over, it is like I am shrinking and it is harder to notice a huge difference in my waist when my hips are also slimmer.
Today has been hard because instead of eggs and such for breakfast, I just had 2 oranges and that seemed to set me off on a day of being extremely hungry and craving everything bad that I could think of. Other than a couple bites of Livie's potatoes and a small amount of coke, I made it without pigging out. I definately am going to eat my eggs tomorrow so that I don't go through this again. John said he was really struggling with cravings today too. It seems like after years of unconcious bad choices our bodies are starting to resent our new healthier choices. I am just praying this diet gets us more aware of our choices and we continue with our better way of eating.
