The News I Needed to Get Through This Weekend!

Well its day 6. I had my first weigh in with my coaches and its official... I've lost 2 lbs! I wasn't expecting much this first week as I know it can take a while to start seeing results but I have to tell you, this reinforced my excitement and I think is the boost I needed to face the temptations that will most certainly come my way this weekend. Since my last post I have followed my regimen religiously. Not missing a beat. I haven't been hungry or had any cravings. I have discovered that I make an AMAZING warm quinoa salad and have even gained some welcomed support from my spouse. The hardest part so far is making sure that I am getting enough clean protein. Oh and the fact that I haven't exercised AT ALL. I should probably start huh?

The Challenge: Getting through this coming weekend. My mother who LOVES to feed us will be in town and we are having my son's 5th birthday party.... Ninja Turtles =Pizza  Birthday= Cake. And of course the annual 4th of July BBQ.

I am determined to stay on track. I need to find a way to tell my mother no when she wants to cook or buy us food without hurting her feelings and I need to just have complete self control! Food has been my weakness for a very long time.
