Day 47: Going Plum Crazy

Tuesday morning weigh-in: 148.4

I realized today that we're more than half-way through summer (calendar-wise), and maybe it's time to look at where we stand.

The first day of Summer weigh-in was 153.4, so that's a loss of five pounds as of today. The goal (which I don't believe I have mentioned before) is 147. I've actually been there already since this all started, but you know how that goes. 

If anyone asks, the trick is two-fold: writing it all down (it makes you stop and think before you eat something you probably shouldn't); and only eating when you're hungry, not just when you get a craving for something salty/sweet. Because I haven't really given up anything totally, I've just cut back on the crap.

So today. Work day number one of the week.
