Week one of counting calories

Just a quick update on my weight loss.  So far, a week in and I’ve lost close to 3 pounds—woo hoo! That does not mean a great deal. I know the first couple of pounds are the easiest, so this that does not represent any long-term indication of results or progress.

I am also getting to that odd craving phase where I know I can’t eat something because it will blow my calorie numbers, but I am starting to want it. The whole “I haven’t had that in months, it would really taste good right about now” issue. Last week I managed through all of that with success (minus a mini shake from Sonic). I have some low-calorie options to fight those cravings.

So, here’s to starting week two.
