Day 2: Is it too early to celebrate?

Day 2: Morning weigh-in: 180.0 (as in 180 even, on the dot)

So hopefully its a sign of good Karma that I lost a little over half a pound after my first day of doing this. Maybe its just the positive head game that having to tell all you people about everything plays on my mind. The little person on my shoulder nagging in my ear..."Oh, better not eat that! You'll have to tell everyone you did!"

I finished off yesterday with a steamed Lean Cuisine Meal of Chicken Alfredo. Those bagged things are really good... if only there was more in them! Lean cuisine in general has come a long way since my mom used to stuff them in the freezer. I like them because it's easy to get a calorie count, and you have a variety. They say the biggest reason people quit eating right or going on diets is because they get tired of eating the same thing over and over.

This morning started off once again with a Special K shake. I don't think I'll get tired of drinking that chocolate goodness. I don't always have them for breakfast though because fruit and yogurt are a good way to fill up without as many calories, but you don't get the protien. I really only like hard boiled eggs, so sometimes I'll eat those when I feel like waiting 20 minutes for my breakfast.

Lunch is a LC southwest chicken panini, a diet green citrus tea, and a snack bag of sun chips. Total calorie count: 460.

My throat was still burning this morning, and I have now developed a nice dry cough, so I probably won't be hitting the gym. However, today it is 51 degrees and sunny out so I am definately going to take advantage. While my kiddo is still down for her nap I am going out front to clean up my yard (I still have halloween, thanksgiving, AND christmas stuff up. I know my neighbors think I'm crazy). Then when she wakes up, I'm going to pack her, the dogs, and my kiddo carry backpack up in the truck and head out for Bells Mill Park. It's nothing but wide open fields where my dogs can run free and I can get a good walk in. Hopefully the fresh air will do me good.
