Nutrisystem Week 7 & 8 Update!
| August 5, 2012 | Filed under Nutrisystem |
I’m a little behind. ACK! I didn’t realize I skipped last week’s update. My bad! It’s nearing the end of my research internship, so that means perfecting an article that will soon be published. The pressure is ON.
I’ve been doing great with my weight loss and by great, I mean I FINALLY BROKE THE 1 LB per week trajectory! WOOT! I’m at a total loss of 9lbs and that means I will more than likely get my first Nutribear next week! Setting these small goals every week makes me think that the changes are going to last. Last summer, or maybe it was the summer before (??) I dropped 25 lbs just by going to the gym and exercising 5 days a week, but as soon as school started back up, I gained all the weight back. Once I get my eating in check, the results are going to be long-lasting. That doesn’t mean I don’t slip up every once in a while. It’s a daily struggle.
Here’s the breakdown:
| Week 1 | 1 lb down |
| Week 2 | 1 lb down |
| Week 3 | 1 lb down |
| Week 4 | 1 lb down |
| Week 5 | 1 lb down |
| Week 6 | 1 lb down |
| Week 7 | 1 lb down |
| Week 8 | 2 lbs down!! |
| TOTAL LOSS SO FAR | 9 lbs!!! |
The fiance is also eating better and going out on hikes. He’s down several lbs as well. (I think this is going to turn into a contest.)
I also wanted to share that my fiance and I watched Fat Sick and Nearly Dead on Netflix and was simply amazed at how much weight people dropped on the diet. Of course, there’s no way we’re going to drink only juice for 10 days or longer, so we decided to just incorporate juicing into our diet. I have so much more energy and have far fewer hunger pangs and cravings. I also try to keep a quote from the movie in mind: “Don’t live to eat. Eat to live.”
Aunt Flo was absent for well over 6 months and as it turns out, she came back.
Let’s see if she plans on returning regularly. If so, that’s another health concern (though the doctor said it was completely “normal,” I wasn’t happy with that answer) I can cross off my list.
