Apparently, I have had a successful first week. I figured I would try something in addition to Atkins, because I still had them, and... well, here's the story.
I was at my parents house last weekend, right before I started the diet.
I used the scale, and it read that I was at 250. So, that's my starting weight.
I start the diet on Sunday, and with my new job, I am working out as well. 8 hours a day, 5 days a week, constant walking and running around, moderate to heavy lifting. On my off days, I try to get in a little DDR. (Dance Dance Revolution. It's fun, good music, and great cardio. You'll see people playing it at the mall.)
I also had some leftover advocare pills, so I'm using those as my vitamins until I can get some actual vitamins. Not sure what to get though. Suggestions would be helpful. *hint hint
So anyways, towards the end of the week, I felt it a little in my waist. A difference. At the beginning of the week, I bought a belt. Size 38-40. Had a little trouble getting it to it's biggest setting, but I bought it anyway, knowing that it would fit me soon enough. And a couple of pairs of pants, with the same reasoning.
Towards the end of the week, the pants are fine, and the belt is at the second largest setting.
I bought a scale today, and when I weighed myself, I'm down to 239. So, either I had a successful first week, or the scale at my mom's house is broken.
Oh, I can't give an accurate measurement count, because I couldn't find my tape measure when I started, and I finally caved and just bought one the other day.
