0.8 Pounds

I didn't quite make my 1.6 goal this week. I was 0.8 pounds too heavy. But that's OK, because I know I can do better next week. At least I still lost some weight and didn't gain any back. I think the main reason why I didn't make it this week was because I let myself go hungry too often, and I didn't drink enough water. My mother-in-law also made too many fried foods for dinner this week, and I'm afraid I gave in to her cooking too many times.

It will probably be harder for me to control my eating habits on Easter, but I will try to make up for it during the following week. I plan on eating small portions during the weekend and avoid eating fried foods and candy. I'm still making it to the gym almost every day, and I go walking a few times a week, too. I've been really good at avoiding sodas and fruit juice, and I haven't had any french fries in weeks, so I'm doing well in those categories. My goal is to drink at least 8 glasses of water each day next week. I think drinking more water will help me feel less hungry. I will report my success next Friday.

Have a Happy Easter!
