I've still been sticking to this meal plan. It has been wonderful, and I feel myself actually getting full! I have trained my stomach to be full off of nothing but salads, fresh, veggies, fresh fruit, and protein shakes! The work-outs are definitely helping, as well!
Yesterday I wore pants that haven't fit me since before I was pregnant! Actually, I did the day before, as well! I am already down a size! Two people have already made a comment to me (about my appearance that they can tell I'm losing weight). It's true, too- I've already lost 5 pounds! I talked to Cassie yesterday, as well- she was very proud of me for sticking to it and already seeing results. She said I am going to do very well with this! I'm telling you, this is the best thing I've ever done for my body! It's amazing what happens when you cut out all of the bad!
I'm so proud of you for recognizing that it's not a "diet"; it *is* a lifestyle change. So many people, myself included in the past, crash and burn quickly because they do too much too soon, because they just want the weight off as fast as possible and think they can go back to their old bad habits once they get to a certain number. I've made a few lifestyle changes myself, and I lost 10 pounds since last month, and have lost a couple more in the past week. Yay, we're doing it! I hope we can get together some time, it helps so much to have a friend who is going through the same process.

Thank you so much, Candice. I love you, too! I look forward to talking to you more about this and I am also glad we can be there for each other!
ReplyDeleteOh and one more thing -- don't be SCARED of food! I used to live in fear of eating anything more substantial than piece of lettuce -- don't do that! Enjoy eating! I know I do :D
