Here we are, another week down, and it has been a wonderful week! With each passing day I feel more empowered and confident! I was reflecting a little after weighing myself this morning; I cannot describe the way I feel in any way other than to say.... "I feel more like me". Since gaining the weight with my pregnancies I haven't felt like myself. Proud mom YES without any question! But pieces of my personality that make me who I am, have been on a extended stay elsewhere. I am normally a fairly confident (and admittedly a little loud :) person. Since I had my children and have been carrying around extra weight, my personality has shrunk back a bit. As I am shedding the pounds I feel like I am gaining pieces of myself back that have been M.I.A. for way too long!
I followed the Nutrisystem plan this week without any issue ( the food choices are delicious, and filled with more variety than I normally have in my diet, which is a nice change). Every night the princess (in the jogging stroller) and I have been going out for a nice jog(I'm now up to 7 miles daily). Along with my Nutrisystem plan, I have been adding daily servings of greens and fruit to maintain a nice balance.
I am so EXCITED to say that I lost a total of 4 pounds this week! My total weight loss for the two weeks that I have been on the Nutrisystem program is a whopping 8 and 1/2 pounds!
It's exhilarating to know that I am that much closer to achieving my ultimate goal! I WILL be Running the NYC Marathon to benefit the Standing Tall Organization on 11/7/10.... 26 Miles!
