I lost 7 pounds this month! I was so surprised when I weighed myself this morning, since two weeks ago the scales showed hardly any difference at all. Even though I am surprised, I know I deserve it – I have been working so hard on this goal for the past month. I go to the gym five days a week now and I’ve gradually given up all the foods that were bad for me, so I do eat very heathily now. SparkPeople has been a huge help to me in staying on track. Like I wrote in my last entry, I had some slip-ups this month too, but I managed to keep myself on track by telling myself to draw a line under them and just start afresh tomorrow. I’m very proud of myself right now.
