trust the process!!!

ive been reading "the skinny rules" by bob harper which is wonderful. eye opening really, and it outlines the new lifestyle, as opposed to a diet. 

anyway, we all know i trust bob harper and every word he says because hes cute, fit, and he gets results. 

he says its okay to weigh in every day. that it can be motivating and not detrimental to weightloss. 

so i do. 

and every morning i step on the scale expecting to see a positive. 

instead, every day for the last 6 days, i have seen nearly a lb lost. last saturday i weighed in at 257. today, friday, i weighed in at 251.6.

i have ben tracking on myfitnesspal (BEST APP EVER). and i can SEE the calories i eat and burn. but i still expect failure. thats the result of a lot of halfass attempts that i didnt get results, and a couple full attempts that didnt yield results either. 

im excited though. we started eating fish. tried talapia. i like it! and there is even some parmesan encrusted talapia that is really low calorie! 

ive made a few of bobs changes. 

i allow myself to go to bed hungry by not eating after dinner. 

i drink water before each meal. 

i ate FISH! 

i eat berries everyday (i make a smoothie every morning, fresh fruit, some frozen berries, a spoon or two of yogurt for texture...its helped a ton!)

im excited to eventually get back to my goal. as time goes on ill believe the numbers. i know i will. it just takes awhile to change your perception of reality. 

i love me. 

go love you!
