One pound down after 1 week

Since yesterday, I am 1 lb down from the weight on my scale at home. I have been walking the dog daily for 25-30 minutes and trying to keep a brisk pace. The good news is that I can already feel my stamina increased and Ruthie is really happier. I'm actually enjoying the walks! So I am changing my behavior for the long term and that is an important goal achieved already! My eatting portions are smaller and I am doing less sugar in general. The goal is to graduate to no sugar except for raw fruits. My sister's birthday is this weekend and I will be faced with a huge cake which I plan on enjoying--so I'll be walking double on Sunday.
Take care everyone and thanks for starting this lovely blog.

  2. Great job this week. Don't worry about the birthday celebration, just take a small slice and have a few bites. This does two things 1. People won't insist on you having a piece a cake and 2. You get to have a small snack.

    I hope Ruthie is ready for a little weight loss.
