7-Month Resolution: 1 Month Update

[xerox78]

I mentioned a month ago that I was going to try to lose some weight. I have a notebook that I have been using to keep track of how many calories I eat versus how many I burn. According to my notes, I should have lost almost 6 and 3/4 pounds (about 3.05 kg). According to my bathroom scale, I've lost 5 pounds. I weigh myself every Sunday night and I lost those 5 pounds in the first two weeks. I've stayed at the same weight since August 13. Apparently, staying at the same weight for a time despite diet and exercise is called "weight loss plateau". I'm relieved to learn that because I was beginning to become quite frustrated. Hopefully I'll start losing again in the near future. I'd like to buy a new dress for my cousin's wedding on November 11.

P.S. Ick, I have to go all the way to work in all of this pouring rain. Wish me luck!

may I recommend sparkpeople.com? I'm on it, and I like how simple and informative the site is--plus it's free! It tells you how many calories to eat, how much exercise to do, and you don't have to change too drastically or quickly.

My sn is just as it is here--bana05. I hope that helps and good luck!
