The Harder Days...
Today was hard at points, but I took someone’s advice and I went online to my favorite stores and browsed things that I thought I want to wear as soon as I’m down to my goal weight. I love Abercrombie, so i was shopping their jeans. Oh and of course Victoria’s Secret. I have a giftcard for that store that’s burning a hole in my pocket.

Bachelorette Party...
Yesterday was definitely my downfall. But the positive side of it was I didn’t weigh myself this morning and I’m right back on track today. It was worth it for me to have fun with the rest of the girls last night. If I was sober, then the games that we played wouldn’t have been as fun. I’m excited to move forward from here and not look back. So my next weigh in will be...

Tomorrow!
I came home from worked today and I still weighed 134.1! Normally I go up about 1 lb. during the day. Sometimes even 2 lbs, but I always go lower in the morning. SO…if I’m the same weight now, I can’t wait to see what I’ll be tomorrow morning! I need to go to the store tomorrow and get more meat and vegetables. I take prenatal vitamins, so I’m always getting a...

Question:
Is anyone else as anxious as I am to get on the scale the next morning if you’re doing the Dukan Diet? That’s what keeps my motivation going. If I had to weigh in only once every week, I think I would get easily distracted since so much goes on in a week. With day by day changes, I have more to look forward to sooner. I think I found my solution. I’ve never in my life been this...

The End of Day 3...
Today is the end of day 3! So far I’ve lost a total of 1 lb (.8 lbs after the first 24 hours and .2 lbs. after another 24 hours). I’ll be weighing myself again as soon as I wake up tomorrow morning. I think I had a good day today. I had turkey lunch meat for lunch with my oat bran, water all day, roasted pork for dinner and 2 eggs. Hopefully it wasn’t too much sodium. I...

This Recipe looks amazing! →
Read this and thought I'd share:
Fat cells do more than just keep you fat they produce hormones. Fat cells produce inflammation molecules. These molecules do a lot of damage on your metabolism by increasing your appetite, slowing fat burning and increasing stress hormones. Of course, you get excess fat cells from too much stress, too much sugar, too much refined foods, too much fat, and over exposure to toxins, pesticides and...

I didn't feel like doing it tonight...
BUT I DID! I did day 2 of Insanity and started at midnight. I was exhausted and the last thing I wanted to do was work my ass off. But I got up and pressed play knowing I’d thank myself in the morning. I also figured I could sweat off a little of my sodium intake from today. Thinking good thoughts… Goodnight everyone! I’m so anxious to step on the scale tomorrow!

Salt While on the Dukan Diet
Was just doing a little research on salt, and thought I’d share. Salt is the enemy apparently. I read in the book, “Never forget that 1 quart of water weight about 2 lbs, and 2 teaspoons of salt are enough to retain this water in your body’s tissues for a day or 2.” I ate 1/2 teaspoon of salt today total (3.5 grams). So hopefully I’m good for tomorrow! *fingers...

Day 2
So far I’m feeling great! I know it’s only been 2 days, but normally on a diet, I’m CRAVING sugar and carbs right away and it’s hard for me not to sneak one little thing. I think by seeing weight loss right away, it helps motivate you instantly so you don’t want to put ONE single bad food in your mouth. Last night I also did a dvd of the Insanity workout. Tonight I...
