First Biggest Loser Weigh In

Well, here we are at my first official weigh in against the Biggest Loser contestants. (Even though we didn't get to see them weigh-in because of the state of the union address) Could I get a drum roll?????? Starting weight 266 lbs, current weight is.....262! Ok, I know it is only a 1.50% loss; but that is pretty good considering I don't have Bob and Jillian, or people preparing my foods, I have school, work, clinicals and everyday stress to work against. I am pretty proud of that number; mostly because it means that I will be in the 250's next week. That is going to feel sweet! Today was a big temptation day as well. When I took my first break during clinicals there were doughnuts, homemade fudge, crackers, soda; you couldn't imagine the spread they had in the break room. I quickly downed my water and ran back to the dressing room to relax away from all the food. Then when I went in for lunch they had homemade cream of chicken soup, homemade bread and jam, cookies, fudge, and the doughnuts from the morning. I still ate my little meal and ran back to the dressing room. I am sure they all thought I was crazy; but I couldn't stay there with all that temptation. Expecially since I am just starting on this journey and I didn't want to blow it after my "official" first week. Still I made it through, and even endulged in a healthy, 60 calorie, snack to celebrate! So worth it. Keep on keeping on! Thanks so much for all your comments. I know we can do this together.

P.S. If you comment, could you sign your comments? It doesn't even have to be your real name if you don't want; I would love to reply to you, but I like to know who I am talking to. Thanks so much!
