1st weigh in...

Wednesday night was my first weigh in and I released 4.2 lbs! My pal Nancy compared it to about 3 cups shy of a 5 lb bag of sugar. I like that! My pants are feeling a little looser so I am feeling really good and want to keep going. My biggest obstacle right now is fueling up correctly. I want to eat good food (calories) not food that will just keep me going. It's like premium gas as opposed to regular unleaded. Or going to Am/Pm vs. Chevron. You pay more at Chevron but that fuel treats your vehicle much better and it runs cleaner. Am/Pm fuel is cheaper but doesn't run so clean. In the long run it's not going to keep your vehicle running as "healthy" or as long. That's the same thing with food. I can eat a low amount of calories, but how much sugar and sodium am I consuming along with that to clog up the pipes? Healthy food is going to keep me running longer throughout my day in between "fill ups".
