My First Month

I weighed myself this morning, and even though I'm not quite on track anymore, I still weighed a little less than last week. My body is having a hard time losing weight at the moment. I'm not really sure why, because I'm eating fairly strict and I exercise every day. My sister, Susie, gave me some encouragement, though, and told me that as long as I'm losing weight, even if it's small, I'm still doing fine. She told me that when she got off her mission it took her body a couple of months to start dropping off weight. I'm hoping that will be my case as well. I'm not giving up!

Monthly Weight Loss Report
I've lost 6 pounds since the beginning of March, so that means I've got 79 more pounds to go before I reach my ultimate goal. I'm about 3 1/2 pounds heavier than my desired weight for this week.

Six pounds in a month is AWESOME! Really, it is. Rather than focusing on 1.6 lbs. per week, maybe you should just focus on losing something each week. That takes a little pressure off, and works as well. Also, I'm curious about what your strict diet is. Having dieted in one way or another all my life (yes, literally) I might have some ideas for you. Hang in there! :)
